Coffee Stirrers | 1 stirrer per pair |
Colored Pencils
We use red and blue in the activity, but any two colors will work. Crayons will also work. |
2 pencils per student |
Hardcover Books
Books must be heavy enough to keep a pipe cleaner and coffee stirrer hanging halfway off a table. |
1 book per pair |
Pipe Cleaners
Pipe cleaner must be new because students will observe how it bends during the activity. |
1 pipe cleaner per pair |
We suggest students work in pairs.
Materials for this activity are needed at three different steps, so we suggest organizing them beforehand for easier distribution.
The Tree Roots and Evidence (Roots & Branches) worksheets are distributed in Step 2.
