Description

This is a fantastic challenge to build a pipeline model! This challenge has a great back story and the best part is that it only uses two materials -two that you already have! Share the scenario with your students and enjoy the problem-solving that presents itself in this real-life STEM event to build a prototype for a pipeline.

Note: This challenge is available in money-saving bundles.

What is the challenge?

You can opt to have students complete research into a specific country’s use of water pipelines and how they are constructed before having them try building one themselves. You can also opt to complete the challenge without extra research.
