STEM Challenge by Thomas Crowley https://padlet.com/thomascrowley/6ek8zk5e4e3q Rectangular Prism en-us 2017-06-05 14:45:20 UTC 2026-01-06 21:19:56 UTC hello@padlet.com Our ideas (Before Building griffineisele https://padlet.com/thomascrowley/6ek8zk5e4e3q/wish/175224945 We want
1 Tommy: I want a retangler prisom. This is because its a good base to build off of. I also think it could hold a lot of books. Wich we need it to be able to do. I am thinking that this structure will preform very well with books on top of it

2 Griffin: I think it should be a rectangular prism because it is long to hold a lot of books and flat to keep all the books on the shape

3 Xavier: I think we should do a rectangular prism. We should do it because it is most likely to be the strongest shape out of all of the options. A shape other than this wouldn't hold up as well. Rectangular prism's the way to go.]]> 2017-06-05 14:49:54 UTC https://padlet.com/thomascrowley/6ek8zk5e4e3q/wish/175224945 We predicted the structure will hold... griffineisele https://padlet.com/thomascrowley/6ek8zk5e4e3q/wish/175226634 1 Tommy: I am predicting that the structure, will be able to hold at lease five independent reading books. 

2 Griffin: I think the structure will hold about four IR books, one medium book, and one small book/picture book.

3 Xavier: If we do it right, 5 IR books. If not... well, let's not go there. We need to do it right though.

Griffin: I think we should have two layers to start, and than we can add on to the structure to make it stronger, so it can hold more books.
Xavier: We should keep it hollow but add onto the sides. It doesn't need to be perfect. As long as it can hold 2 soft cover books, it's fine. We don't need it to be the best.]]> 2017-06-05 15:16:42 UTC https://padlet.com/thomascrowley/6ek8zk5e4e3q/wish/175229154 Building Progress griffineisele https://padlet.com/thomascrowley/6ek8zk5e4e3q/wish/175396045 Assembling Layers...]]> 2017-06-06 14:12:22 UTC https://padlet.com/thomascrowley/6ek8zk5e4e3q/wish/175396045 Building Progress griffineisele https://padlet.com/thomascrowley/6ek8zk5e4e3q/wish/175397326 Our First two walls are put together!]]> 2017-06-06 14:18:50 UTC https://padlet.com/thomascrowley/6ek8zk5e4e3q/wish/175397326 DONE! griffineisele https://padlet.com/thomascrowley/6ek8zk5e4e3q/wish/175399078 How many books will it hold?
