Questions Could you build a house out of paper? In this Mystery, students

examine how large structures like houses are built from smaller pieces.

In the activity, Paper Towers, they design their own structures using

an unconventional building material: paper! Students build towers using

3" x 5" index cards and paper clips. First, they build tall towers, then

they are challenged to build towers strong enough to support a

hardcover book.

Activity 1. Today we will continue our study of materials and their

properties by examining how large buildings are created by

assembling smaller pieces. Students will create their own

structures out of paper notecards, then tested them for

strength and balance!

2. You can encourage your child’s curiosity at home! Take a look

around your home for all the items made from paper–like

cardboard packing boxes, tissue boxes, or egg cartons–and

discuss the properties that make them useful.

3. Watch mystery and answer questions as you go.

4. Experiment: Do the experiment taking pictures as you go if you

have the equipment. If you need to improvise please do. You

need: books, ruler, scissors, index cards, paper clips, handout,

end-of-mystery assessment, end-of-unit assessment

I have posted a list of websites on the bealelementary.org page. Please choose activities

that your child would like to explore. Please pick an activity from the list to do with

your scientist each day that you don’t do an assignment. Have fun and stay curious.
