6th grade STEM students worked on a traveling toothpicks “magic trick” experiment today. If you want to try this at home, all you need is 5 toothpicks, and eye dropper or a straw, water, and a plate. Follow the directions on the following website if you want to play along. Make sure you check out the “How does it work” portion at the bottom to learn the science behind the experiment. We enjoyed this activity and hope you do, too! #STEM #OneTribe
