Let's Make a Slinky Go Down the Stairs!!

One of the students brought a slinky in for show-and-tell.  How interesting!!  The children were telling each other how slinkys crawl down stairs.  This created a challenge in the classroom.  How can we make a slinky crawl down stairs in the classroom?

They came up with a solution!!  They took the slinkys to the block centre and off they went to work.  The children were invited to bring slinkys to school and we had a few come in. 




We did not get too far!!  They came up with the right idea but the slinky was not climbing down like they thought.  Keep working!!!!
We'll figure something out!!  Keep checking!  We'll see if they come up with a solution!!
