Challanges
- Make a bridge using papers connecting two sides, and estimate the distance between them.
- Make a bridge that can hold the weight of 10 Jenga blocks.
Questions to be asked
- Does using thicker (more number) paper affect how much weight the bridge can hold?
- Why do you think some bridges fall down when you put weight on them, but others stay up?
- Does the height of the bridge affect the stability of a bridge?
