Paper Box STEM Engineering Challenge

Building a Paper Box is a lot harder than it looks!  In this challenge, students were given a sheet of colored cardstock paper.  They had to build the largest possible box with just one sheet of paper.

We discussed using nets to build three dimensional figures BEFORE we started the challenge.  We used this challenge as we were studying VOLUME in math.

The students came up with many differen shapes of boxes.  Once the boxes were made, students had to find the volume of their box.
