Students are going to recycle cardboard and build three dimensional light houses. Building will go right along with STEAMA curriculum. It will use problem solving skills, creativity, math, and a engineering skills to build the structure. We will use a glue mixture to get lighthouses sealed. We need you to help us with the remainder of the project. The paint will make the students’ structures come to life. The sand will make the scene look realistic (and fourth graders will learn that sand in the soil in the coastal plains of NC). This will fulfill the artistic and social studies portion of the assignment. Students also want to take pictures of the structures to put in their fourth grade scrapbooks.
