This Week In Science #15

This week in science it was our third time doing the marshmallow challenge. With the same groups as the last two times we were in, we tried to build the tallest free standing tower. This week doing the challenge we built two towers. This week both of our towers weren't taller than our last tower. This week in some weird way even though our tower wasn't taller than our others i felt like we worked together better because we weren't able to talk.
This week in science working in the same old group for the third time wasn't any different. I think I learned that its being in a group with the same people for the whole year can be a good thing because we have already learned and know so much about each other. But it would have been good to experience these challenges with different people to see how others work. I also learned that in cases like the marshmallow challenge its good to have others working with you because you have extra sets of hands helping you. I think if I would have done this challenge by myself It would have been a complete failure!
