Building Bridges

Their hypothesis was correct!!!
h
The students are predicting if the bridge, that is built with
sticks, will hold more pennies.
This group thinks it will work better if they tape
the straws to the books.

This group decided to tape the straws together in the middle.
Students are trying to build 2 bridges.
One bridge is made from straws, the
other is made from popsicle sticks.
 

Students predict how many pennies each bridge can hold.

This bridge could not hold any pennies.
