Cargo Bridge Game
We will be starting a toothpick bridge design project. In this project we will be working towards the final goal of making a bridge that spans over 1 foot and can support the most weight. In this weeks challenge I want you to play a educational game that will teach you many structural properties about bridges and how they function. The game is located at:

Egg Drop project Drop
Happy Drop Day everybody! Today we will be putting your design to the test. Find a place (preferably outside that you can test your design. The project should be tested from a minimum of ten feet. Your assignment this week is going to be to video tape or have somebody else videotape your egg drop including the part where you check to see if the egg survived.
WHEN TEST IS COMPLETE EMAIL THE VIDEO DIRECTLY TO ME AT [email protected]
No need to share it on Microsoft teams
