STEM - Epic Fail - Good or Bad

Today Year 2 were engaged in a STEM afternoon making a spider web.

S - Science behind the web creation
T - Technology - what we use to make the web
E - Engineering the design
M- Maths to make the web

We gave the students dental floss to make the web and paper to glue it on as well as glue.

The students were very enthusiastic planning and drawing up their webs ... BUT when they tred to glue the floss on to the paper it was a huge FAIL.

We stopped the project and discussed the problems...
We came up with lots of solutions. 
We will try again next week.








In the meantime we are collecting forked sticks.
