Building a Bridge Day 4

Today is officially the last class that we will be working on the 100ft bridge across the pond. Though we will be working on it on monday today we should accomplish a lot we should be able to get 30ft into the pond by adding trapezoid number 5 and 6. After every day of building we test the bridge to see if it will break, and we also test the sturdiness of the bridge. The main goal is to get this bridge across the pond. We are also writing down last minute supplies for Mr. Joslin to go get at the hard ware store.

There was a bit of a mishap today. we were able to successfully get the fourth trapezoid added on to the bridge. The 5th one was attached but then snapped. I think it was because the wood was split. Students will show up at a review session on saturday at 9:00 am to discuss and potentially finding a way to make this bridge work.
