During the design process students will discuss the different use of building shapes and how sturdy one shape is compared to another. They will need to use non-standard units of measurement in order to make sure their shapes are the same size for construction. The bridges will be built with the intentions to transport a car so they must select shapes that will make that possible.

How can we design and build a bridge out of straws with tension and compression (push and pull) so the bridge does not collapse when tested ?

# data[].attributes.body
Students will create a bridge that will allow them to transport a toy car across it safely.

# data[].attributes.body
Students will watch a video and read a book informing them on the different types of bridges and determine what features they will use that will help them make a strong bridge.

# data[].attributes.body
Students will design a bridge using shapes. They will make a drawing showing what shapes they will use and how it will look when the bridge is completed. They need to ensure that the length of the sides is the same for each and will use nonstandard units of measurement. As a challenge some of my students will only be allowed to use a certain number of shapes .

SC.K.P.13.1 Observe that a push or a pull can change the way an object is moving.

ELA.K.R.2.2Identify the topic of and multiple details in a text.

ELA.K.C.1.2 Using a combination of drawing, dictating, and/or writing, create narratives with the events in chronological order.

Students will create the structure they designed with an intermediate aged partner.

Students will roll the car across their bridge to see if it holds up.

# data[].attributes.body
Students will add things on top of their car to see if their bridge can withhold the additional weight.

# data[].attributes.body
Students will demonstrate to the group how well their bridge works, if they had to make changes and also what made their bridge successful.

# data[].attributes.body
Some students will need additional support and will need selections to choose from instead of creating their own design, and others will need an additional push to make their structure stronger.

Students will need to have some knowledge on the engineering design process. I will assist them with identifying the problem and them explore possible solutions. Afterwards they will watch me design my bridge through a drawing and then also model how to put it together.

They will also need to have a certain amount of perseverance to push through the challenges that will present themselves when they are creating their bridge, and also after they try it out to see what they can do to improve it.

While reviewing and analyzing the resources we can determine what type of straw and tape we want to use and why that type of straw would be easiest for the students to use and as well as what type will be the best to use.
