Year 5 Bridge Building

21st Mar 2018

In Year 5 we have been investigating the purpose of bridges and the different kind of bridges we use everyday. We were set a challenge of building a bridge out of masking tape, newspaper, card and string. The bridge had to cover a gap of 50 cm, stand up on its own and hold a 500g weight. 

Have a look at the fun we had and the bridges we made during this task
