Dear Students,

Using only the materials listed below you and your team of engineers will need to build a paper chain. You will have 10 minutes to plan your design individually and 10 minutes to plan as a team. You will have 30 minutes to construct your paper chain. At the end of the 30 minute time limit your chain will be measured. If the chain breaks during the measurement process only the part of your choice will be measured. The team with the longest paper chain will be declared the winner.

Good luck!
