Fifth-grade PBE students take on STEM building challenge

Fifth-grade students in Katelyn Cleveland’s class at PBE were tasked with a STEM challenge using the Engineering Design Process.

A group of four fifth grade students sit at a table and work on a project with toothpicks and pumpkins. The view is above the table as they work.

Students needed to build a tower that was high and sturdy using 16 candy pumpkins per group and unlimited toothpicks.
