Since we are doing structures for Inquiry Ms Kirkpatrick's inquiry group has been building bridges out of spaghetti for the past two to three weeks. It was a challenge, but today we managed to finish it. For this task I have been working with Jeremiah, Chris, and Te Pounamu. The fun part today was testing it. By testing our spaghetti bridges there were 8 bricks and we were to put as many bricks as we can. Before testing it our group predicted that it would hold three bricks but unfortunately it only held 1 brick. We were shocked with our results but we had fun. As you can see in the photo our bridge has bent. Our spaghetti bridge was 42 cm which was long. The spaghetti bridge that held the most was Sanujan's group who held 6 bricks. I think next time our group has to strength our bridge by adding more bands and sellotape. At the end of our bridge testing we decided to see a group hold all 8 bricks. We were stunned by the results because it held all 8.
