STEM Activity

The Candy Factory has experienced a malfunction in their candy delivery system. Students were challenged to create a device that could pick up candy and deposit it into a basket. Students were supplied with a large bag of items to use in their development of the device. 






These future engineers enjoyed designing and testing their devices. Many questions were being asked throughout this activity. Collaboration was an important component of this activity.
