The BOOK FAIR is coming soon !!
The challenge involved creating a track for marbles that not only navigated down a structured path but also incorporated a basketball hoop shot and an obstacle course. Students collaborated effectively, brainstorming and experimenting with their designs to ensure that the marbles would successfully traverse the course.
The final creations reflected impressive ingenuity and planning, demonstrating the students' ability to apply engineering principles creatively. Overall, the event highlighted the students' enthusiasm and skill in STEM activities, fostering a spirit of innovation and collaboration within the club.
