My Project

I love that my students this year are ready, willing. and eager to learn! We have been studying engineering in our Science unit. We have specifically discussed how the George Washington Bridge was built and what went into the engineering of such a bridge, or any bridge for that matter. The students decided that they would like to try to design their own bridge with some building blocks we have in the classroom. However, it would be a much better project if they had the necessary tools to actually build a replica of the bridge!
