Plastic grating, canisters, wood pieces, cardboard, pipe cleaners, tubing... you name it, we can use it! |
You never know what might come in handy for student projects. Whether it's old manila file folders that are cut up to use as stencils and templates, paper towel tubes that become columns on a Greek temple, clean 2-liter soda bottles for rocketry activities, CDs that will be wheels on a mousetrap car, or the remaining pieces from a broken boardgame that become part of a student's Math Game design project, the possibilities are endless.
So next time you're doing your spring cleaning, and you come across that nearly-empty wrapping paper tube, or a half-empty box of coffee stirrers, or an old vacuum hose that is cracked in the end, don't chuck it in the trash - email the STEAM Lab to see if can be put to use!
