Building Bridges - The Test of Strength

For the past several Fridays during their Library time the 6th Grade students have been exploring bridges for structure and strength.  Last Friday was the test to see which group had the strongest design.

This bridge broke at 14.5 pounds.

Short and stout.... the strongest bridge collapsed at 34 pounds.
