Bishop Alexander CCSS - Building Bridges and School Spirit Together

Bishop ACCSS students Megan Blais, Kaitilyn Charette, Isabelle Mann and Savana Lamoureu proudly display their completed bridge. February 5, 2010 - Students at Bishop Alexander Carter faced a bridge building challenge this past week in their woodshop class. The students had been given the task of building model bridges and then the completed projects were subjected to weight tests. The rules allowed only for glue and wood 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch to be used. In the end the majority of the bridges were able to remain stable even with a weight of 300 lbs pulling down on them. Savanna Lamoureux, one of the woodshop students said that the day was a lot of fun and it was a great opportunity for the students to express their school spirit. "We really had a lot of fun." said Lamoureux. "Not only building the bridges, but also destroying them after it was all done!" Share Tweet
