Ask 1626260 https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/129120020 The first inertial problem that we faced was that we didn't what type of bridge that we should've made. So, we had to decide which to support multiple stacks of pennies.]]> 2016-10-07 13:53:21 UTC https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/129120020 2. Imagine 1626260 https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/129122374 We brainstormed that maybe only one type of bridge could work for this challenge, we thought that the beam bridge was the best because the supports would be stronger to hold more pennies.]]> 2016-10-07 13:59:22 UTC https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/129122374 3. Plan 1626260 https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/129801717 A problem that we faced was that we didn't know which bridge would help our to support the most amount of pennies. We had to build around the bridges, we had to make sure the bridge didn't touch the boats. We had to hold pennies on the boat with a penny spread and penny stack and the bridge wasn't allowed to touch the boat]]> 2016-10-11 13:47:04 UTC https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/129801717 4. Create 1626260 https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/129805253 We had a beam bridge that had one support and the support was in the middle of the bridge. 
Penny spread: 24 pennies
Penny stack: 25 pennies]]> 2016-10-11 13:54:08 UTC https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/129805253 5. Improve 1626260 https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/130424161 Next time, something i think we could do differently is that i think we could have added more support, and we could've made the bridge thicker. I would keep the bridge the same but i would add more supports. ]]> 2016-10-13 13:23:08 UTC https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/130424161 1626260 https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/130426126 2016-10-13 13:27:29 UTC https://padlet.com/1626260/1m5owr3ermnr/wish/130426126
