It's time to end this. For those of you who haven't posted your scores, get it done this week. If there is a problem in getting that done, just let me know. A million thanks to all of you that participated in the challenge. We had more than 5,000 students this year sending chips across the country. Watch the website to see when the Challeneg will happen again. I'm toying with doing it twice next year. The number of schools was very difficult this year. Maybe running it once in the fall (October-November?) and then in the winter (January-February?) would be easier. Your thoughts?
Have a great remainder of the year!

I've been doing this activity (with a slight twist) at the high school level for several years now. The students have to make their chip container fit in a standard size envelope. It would be nice to set this up for high school students as well. I actually do this activity twice a year. Once 1st. semester around Oct./Nov and once second semester in March/April.
Max,
I'm actually thinking of changing it to a two semester project. 116 schools participated this year! It would be great to split that over a period of time. If you looked at the schools we go all the way from lower elementary to high school. Maybe we should talk . . .
