Design a Cup Part 2
by Nicholas Williams
In this 2nd lesson in a series of 2, students will continue the work on their cup design. They will analyze features of water cups for how effective they are at keeping our water cold while we are at school. Following the engineering design process, students will then use this knowledge to design and build a container of their own to attempt to keep ice water cold, for as long as possible.
