Fridays are full STEAM ahead for hands-on LR students

Equipped with spaghetti, masking tape, scissors, and a marshmallow, students work on "the Marshmallow Challenge" in math teacher Kelly Peterson's class. Students working in teams use the materials to build the tallest tower they can, and put the marshmallow on top. "I use it quite often at the beginning of the school year to help build understanding of group dynamics when learning a concept together in a group setting," she said about the activity.
