Straw Bridges







With Noah's enthusiasm for and natural abilities in engineering and construction, building and testing bridges was an obvious choice for the school science fair. He and Jeremy worked together building three bridges out of drinking straws and straight pins. They tested the strength of each one by seeing how many pennies each could hold without breaking. The results were clear: an arch was the most sturdy. Noah's display was wonderful and we were super pleased that he won a first place ribbon!
