With their plans approved by the head civil engineer (Mrs. Brinza!), second graders are off and running on creating their bridges from limited materials.
Working in teams, students are creating their bridges. Once their bridge design is complete, they will complete a series of tests to determine if the bridges they designed can have toy cars pass over the surface, allow a barge to pass underneath it (see the picture to the left), and hold as many weights as possible. Be on the lookout for the results of their tests!
