Mrs. DePetrillo's 5th grade students assisted Mrs. Sisco's Kindergarten students in designing and building a clothesline from a variety of materials (Play-Doh, popsicle sticks, pipe cleaners). The teams of students needed to draw their idea for an initial design, try it out, make adjustments, and then draw what their final design looked like. The Kindergarten students needed to successfully hang their paper mittens from their clothesline using mini clothespins. It was quite an engineering challenge!
