In term three we studied structures. In room three our main structural focus was bridges. After finding out lots of information about the different types of bridges and there purpose our teacher set us three challenges. This movie shows us taking part in these challenges.
We learnt a lot, not only about bridges but the importance of planning, working together and how sometimes however hard we try to achieve the goal it just doesn't work.
In our movie we had a newspaper bridge challenge. We referred back to what we had learnt about the structures of bridges and how the triangle shape makes a strong bridge. After planning a great design we discovered that although the bridge looked great on paper the real life bridge itself was not so great and shortly after filming our bridge collapsed. We believe this is when we learn the most.
