Science:
Build a Bridge!
Watch this video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVOnRPefcno
Research these bridges: a beam bridge, arch bridge, suspension bridge and movable bridge. Once you have looked at all 4 types of bridge, look at the different parts of a bridge; truss, struts, beams, girder, ties and cable.
Over the next week I would like you to choose one type of bridge you would like to try to build at home, using only materials you can find around the house! You challenge is that your bridge can hold 2 cans of pop! Once you are done take a picture, or video for me to see! You can send it to lauren.clayton@granderie.caI can’t wait to see what you come up with!! 😊
Music:
Draw what you hear!
Close your eyes and listen to a link, draw what you hear or how it makes you feel!
Have a Family Karaoke Night!!! Practice all your amazing singing skills! 😊
I understand if any of these do not get completed. I know right now is a stressful time for all of us, so please don’t feel more pressure to have this done if you don’t have the time. If you have any questions or need any help, please feel free to email at lauren.clayton@granderie.ca😊
