House Building Activity: Lesson Plan | What's So Cool About Manufacturing?

Create structures using paper, all while developing math skills! Much like in manufacturing, we have to follow a list of steps in order to create our finished product. We also have to measure materials to fit the purpose of the design like making a house! Make discoveries about manufacturing in addition to creating our own structures. 

The annual What’s So Cool About Manufacturing? video contests excite students to explore cool manufacturing careers and produce profiles of companies throughout Pennsylvania. Judges in each regional contest bestow a variety of awards, and each contest features an online vote at WhatsSoCool.org for its Viewers Choice Award.
