For Teachers
When building without tape:
- The towers were built with spaghetti and marshmallows. For five classes, I used 900g of spaghetti and 3 bags of mini marshmallows.
- Before watching the first video, it is a great opportunity to discuss what safety precautions and clothing are worn by people on construction sites today.
