The challenge is to build a tower strong enough for Rapunzel's prince to climb. The tower must be sturdy, tall, and made from the materials provided: cardboard, tape, paper tubes, Keva Planks, and LEGO bricks.
Brainstorm ideas on how to use the materials to create a stable structure. Consider using the cardboard for a solid base, the paper tubes for support columns, the Keva Planks for walls, and the LEGO bricks for additional reinforcement.
Start building the tower by following the brainstormed plan. Use tape to secure the materials together, ensuring the base is wide enough to support the tower's height.
Once the tower is built, test its stability by gently applying pressure. If the tower wobbles or falls, go back to the planning stage to make improvements, such as adding more support or adjusting the base.
By following these steps, students can systematically approach the challenge, allowing them to create a functional and reliable tower for Rapunzel's prince[1].
