3-D Solids!

The students had fun creating a variety of prisms and pyramids this morning using toothpicks and marshmallows. Some of the kids got ambitious and even made octagonal prisms! Once they completed a variety of solids, many of the students used their knowledge of triangulation to connect their solids into a larger work of art! Dontay created a boot, Braeden made a parking garage, and Lilah made a ....we're not quite sure!

Alice noticed that the cube was super squishy (made of squares) but that the triangle-based pyramid was much stronger!
