Kindergartners in Ms. Banker’s class at Parkway Elementary School in East Meadow learned about the basics of equal forces through a STEM activity on Feb. 2.
In this hands-on activity, students split up into groups of four and five as they each pulled on a string to put a rubber band around a cup to move and stack the cups. For the rubber band to open correctly, students had to work together as a team to equally pull the strings.
The cup-stacking challenge was a great activity for kindergartners to facilitate teamwork.
