In this “Log Cabin Challenge,” students will collaborate to build a log cabin using heavy Link N logs.
What’s Covered
One group will use technology, operating a train to move the logs, while the other group will rely on muscle power to transport them by hand. The logs will come with pre-made notches for easy assembly, and the roof will be pre-built. A brief lesson on the historical role of trains in the area’s development will provide context for the challenge. This activity not only teaches history and leadership but also fosters teamwork and problem-solving skills in a fun, hands-on way!
