The 4th graders worked hard on their bridge designs for most of the day today! We started with some students working on memorizing their poems and other students who have already memorized their poems tackling some brain teasers. After that, the bridge groups met to finalize their designs and polish their blueprints. The most challenging part of the project so far has been calculating how many popsicle sticks their bridge design will require in order to set their budget. This took a lot of math and deliberation, but by the end, the students were really able to visualized the task at hand and get to work!

Next week, the groups will continue to build their bridges. We hope to test the bridges the following week on March 9th.
