Bridge Challenge Continued

Dear Readers,


After a week of anticipation, yesterday we held our bridge competition.  Here is the link to the video of the tests: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tU3Oc0oAtDw.  We have already started reflecting on our designs, and the students have begun to excitedly discuss how to make their bridges stronger for next time.

We would appreciate any feedback.

Sincerely,

Mr. V

    I loved watching the video! It was really interesting to see the different designs and how they held the weight of the books. I'll be interested to see the next bridges. Will you try new designs, or strenthen the old designs?
