Fifth Grade Begins Building Tetrahedral Kite

On Friday, students in 5th grade began an engineering project in STEM to build a tetrahedral kite. Working individually, students began building tetrahedrons using straws and string. Students will be using basic processes found in many manufacturing systems – cutting, shaping, forming, conditioning, assembling, joining, finishing, and quality control – to build a complete tetrahedral kite as a group.
