Grade 6 Science students have been shaking things up on the second floor this week! After constructing structures in groups last week, on Tuesday, they put their creations to the test, using a shaking table they built to simulate an earthquake. The challenge: to design a structure that could survive exactly 10 seconds of shaking. The tallest structure to successfully withstand the shaking table for 10 seconds was the winner!
