I'll Huff, and I'll Puff, and I'll Blow Your House In!

The Three Little Pigs


Each student got a paper with a little pig on cardstock taped to it.  They got a bag of 9 Dots (I bought boxes of the candy at the Dollar Tree) and access to toothpicks.   The object was to build a house to withstand the huffing and puffing of the big bad wolf (a hairdryer.)

I set everything up before the students came in.  

1st grade students generally build buildings that went up...
Another 1st grade structure.

Kindergarten students built houses that weren't connected and they also weren't as successful.
Everybody had fun and this is definitely a project that I will do again in the future!
