Building a Stronger (Sweeter) New Orleans

Students create and analyze composite materials with the intent of using the materials to construct a structure with optimal strength and minimal density. The composite materials are made of puffed rice cereal, marshmallows and chocolate chips. Student teams vary the concentrations of the three components to create their composite materials. They determine the material density and test its compressive strength by placing weights on it and measuring how much the material compresses. Students graph stress vs. strain and determine Young's modulus to analyze the strength of their materials.

0.0 stars

This resource is part of Tools4NCTeachers.

In this lesson, students develop spatial sense by composing shapes to match their teacher's representation.

Having spatial sense means having a feel for the geometric aspects in the environment and how the different shapes can be combined to form different figures. Students do not "grow" this spatial reasoning without having rich experiences that involve shapes and spatial relationships.
