Fourth class started the year with a great STEM challenge called ‘Design a Bridge’.
During this challenge the children tested different bridge models to see which was the strongest. Below you will see the pictures of flat bridges, arched bridges, walled bridges and corrugated bridges.
We made this a fair test by all using the same type and amount of books. We also kept the distance between the books at 15cm.
Our results found the walled bridge was strong, the arched bridge was stronger and the corrugated bridge was the strongest.
