Extending More Than Just the Track

As my kids entered the classroom, I gave them this problem: extend the train track that I had started on our table as much as they could. Several kids were interested when the track easily stayed on the table. As it got longer and longer, they had to work harder, trying to balance it on the edge or placing the track carefully on the backs of chairs. Then, one student saw some uncommon building materials in our classroom and used them to support the track. Challenges like this really stretch their cooperation, creativity, and thinking!
