Designing a Suspension Bridge Grade 5
These fifth grade students were challenged to create a suspension bridge that could support the 16 grams of weight using only a single piece of copy paper and two math books. Not a problem for our young engineers!
They were then challenged to improve their bridge so that it could hold the greatest possible weight. One team was actually able to support more than 1,000 grams using only a piece of paper and two math books. Pretty impressive!
