Copley Fairlawn Middle School Breaks World Record!

Tetrahedron
 
 
In order to welcome visiting author Shelley Pearsall to our school, the students were challenged by Mr. Kerrigan to build a tetrahedron larger than the record-breaking one featured in Pearsall's book, "All of the Above".  Supervised by Mrs. Tyree and Mrs. Hershey and helped by parents, the students accomplished this feat in time for Pearsall's visit on May 9th.  The tetrahedron was over 16 feet tall and consisted of almost 21,000 pieces. 
 

Shelley Pearsall has posted the record breaking Tetrahedron on her website.  Please visit her home page at www.shelleypearsall.com and click under "Newsflash". Thanks again to everyone who participated in the successful event.
