Build an Igloo

 This STEM challenge was to build a model of an igloo. We started off talking about snow-covered areas like Alaska, parts of Canada and even northern parts of the United States. Then we discussed what igloos are made of and watched a video online about how they are built. Students used a lab sheet to sketch a plan before beginning. Then
they used paper plates, cotton balls, paper towel rolls and glue to build a circular based, dome shaped igloo with a door opening.  Everyone was successful and had fun building an igloo with their materials.
