Each student will create their own paper tower, but we suggest students work in pairs to share ideas.
Each student will need a flat, level area where they can build a tower without bumping into someone else’s. Desktops and tables are great. Floor space works as long as you have a hard surface. We don’t recommend building towers on a carpet.
