Nanogirl is back with a new idea to help her develop the superpower of strength - let's make a super rope! Try this easy STEM activity at home, and together we'll learn how to add strength with a twist, using only the twist of a paper towel we can construct ropes to see which twist can hold the most weight before they collapse!
For this activity, all you will need is
- 1 x sheet paper towel
- Ruler
- Pencil
- Scissors
- Tape
- String
- Skewer or stick
- Empty plastic bottle or small plastic bucket with handle
- 1 x Paper clip
- Some heavy weights (e.g. small rocks, marbles etc.)
- Something long and straight (e.g. broom handle)
- A mat, cushion or blanket (optional)
This is the SECOND video in our Nanogirl's Lab Superpower of Strength series. Watch all five videos and have fun doing each of the easy STEM activities to complete your superpower of strength training, as you learn to become a STEM-powered superhero together with Nanogirl!
