STEM Activity: Tower Power

Today we went to the science lab to investigate the following scenario:

You're hired! The STEM Engineering company has hired you and your team to build the tallest free-standing tower.  You have 15 pipe-cleaners to use as inventory.  However, you are under a time crunch!  You have 10 minutes to build your tower.  The tower must stand on its own.  No team members are allowed to hold the tower up or lean the tower against a wall or any other object!  Good luck!

Ms. Tiberio's Homerooms tallest tower was 21 inches!
Mrs. Ray's Homerooms tallest tower was 24 inches!
