The longest chain challenge

Picture
​This week’s STEM activity is a LONG one. In length I mean, not time! This week is a challenge to see how long of a paper chain you are able to make out of a single piece of paper. While this sounds simple it is actually can be a bit harder than you expect. Challenge a sibling, a friend, a parent (or all of the above). You don’t even have to be in the same room as the other person just make sure they are using the same size piece of paper. If you measure each of your paper trails you can compare numbers virtually! 
 
Here are the rules and regulations of this challenge:
  1. Everyone must use the same size piece of paper (it doesn’t matter what kind of paper
  2. Everyone must use the same type of adhesive (glue, tape, stapler, etc…)
  3. You can cut and maneuver the paper in any way you want but make sure you think through your process before you start cutting. You only get ONE sheet of paper and once its cut there is no going back!
  4. You may not use anything else besides the paper and your choice of adhesive when creating your paper chain.
