Mrs. Wilson's class of third graders is acting as bridge engineers this morning for science! They are working on forces and using their bridges to see how much force they can withstand before collapsing. With the use of pennies, students are able to test their bridge's strength and discover how different building methods can affect its durability. Way to go third-grade engineers!
