STEM Workshop Held at The Chapel School

On Friday, January 28 TCS Preschool and Primary Grade Students learned all about structure versus forces of nature in a Three Little Pigs STEM Workshop presented by visitors from Westchester Children’s Museum courtesy of a grant from The Blue Ribbon Foundation.  After reading through the children’s classic, students simulated construction of houses of straw, sticks and bricks and witness how they withstood the ‘huffing and puffing of wind’.  2nd Grader Mitchell Sprague commented, “This was so fun.  The stick house held together by clay was stronger than I expected, and I tried a couple of different things with the Legos.  A single wall was strong, but a full house with four connecting walls was the strongest.”
