Using a set amount of mini marshmellows and spaghetti, the tables worked as a team to create a structure that could withstand an "earthquake" on a "Shake Table".
Using the iTouches and an app called iSeismometer, the students were able to recreate various quake magnitudes and a check out the strength of the "seismic waves" on the apps measurable Richter scales.
It was messy and sticky and lots of stuff to put together and do, but it was fun.
