We were trying to make a bridge out of paper and make it supportive enough to hold up pennies. We tested the bridge by putting pennies on it until it collapsed.]]> 2016-10-11 12:38:19 UTC https://padlet.com/1613547/mkpzunq5nbvw/wish/129770895 1613547 https://padlet.com/1613547/mkpzunq5nbvw/wish/129772449 Bend the paper in half "hot dog" style, two times and tape it together so it won't open back up.  This will be your beam. Then take 3 pieces of paper and cut them in half so now you have 4 pieces of paper. Roll each individual piece up and tape it together to it doesn't open back up. This will be your supports. Then tape your supports to the bottom of the beam on each end.]]> 2016-10-11 12:42:32 UTC https://padlet.com/1613547/mkpzunq5nbvw/wish/129772449 1613547 https://padlet.com/1613547/mkpzunq5nbvw/wish/130407113 Put the paper just as it was said when we imagined it.]]> 2016-10-13 12:41:19 UTC https://padlet.com/1613547/mkpzunq5nbvw/wish/130407113 1613547 https://padlet.com/1613547/mkpzunq5nbvw/wish/130407358 Tape all of your pieces together and stand your bridge up. Make sure it is stable enough to hold pennies. In our case it wasn't. So we had to improve.]]> 2016-10-13 12:41:57 UTC https://padlet.com/1613547/mkpzunq5nbvw/wish/130407358 1613547 https://padlet.com/1613547/mkpzunq5nbvw/wish/130408226 Add more tape to the paper bridge and add another support by cutting a piece of paper in half and rolling it up and putting it in the middle of the bridge to help the middle stay up.]]> 2016-10-13 12:42:58 UTC https://padlet.com/1613547/mkpzunq5nbvw/wish/130408226
