Today we learned in science about how the triangle shape can help stabilize a structure. The following video gives a good overview of this concept. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBHJtWbsiaA

Students attempted to build a structure capable of holding a dictionary with only toothpicks and marshmallows. They had to use the triangle shape to help stabilize these week materials. Unfortunately, no structures survived the dictionary test this year (one did last year). We might have to give this another try!
