Homeschool Meet-up: Building Challenge Marble Run

 This was my first Homeschool Meet-up event!  I think it was a great success.  Six families showed up and worked on some problem solving skills as they tried out my building challenge.  



Goals:

  • Opportunity to explore STEAM concepts in a relaxed setting.
  • Participants can socialize and connect with other homeschool families.
  • Students build confidence and cooperative skills by completing tasks together.  

Name tag table: 
Invite participants to create a name tag using the die cut shapes, tape, and pens.  

Getting to know you board:
Invite participants to answer the question on the white board so that we can get to know each other.  

QUESTION: What is your favorite ice-cream flavor?
CATEGORIES: Vanilla, strawberry, chocolate, other (please tell us what it is)


Activity of the day: Build a marble run using only the supplies provided
Supplies:
  • Paper cups
  • Duct tape
  • Playdough
  • Craft sticks
