We learned so much throughout our unit on Bridges!
It was a great first unit and we were really able to build friendships with one another too!
We began by accessing our schema on the information that we already new about bridges and then determined what we would like to learn about bridges.
Then we explored the history of bridges. Bridges have been around as long as people have been around. We learned about the evolution of natural materials to steel and how the support structures have changed through the years. The shape of the arch can be seen in some of the very first bridges.
We then spent time learning about the different types of bridges...
With all of this knowledge, we of course had to design and build our own:
