This week, as part of our STEM activity, students are exploring a variety of materials to build a bridge. Next week, we'll use the knowledge we've gained from this exploration and our recycled materials to create bridge. Talk with your child about the different components of a bridge and how to make it stable. If you have specific materials at home that you and your child think would be great for building a bridge, please send them in (i.e. paper towel rolls, popsicle sticks, etc.; please note, we have lots of cardboard, so that will not need to be sent in). We could use some more duct tape - some students thought it was a great adhesive!
