Good work
and thanks for competing with us
Medford Lakes Elementary
School!
The Rules: There
are two contest categories: 1. a bridge with a pier, 2. a bridge without a
pier. Students can also earn extra credit in class by sharing useful tips,
which will appear on the collaboration board. The bridge designs that cost
the least amount of money and pass the load test will win the pier and no
pier competitions. Students may work in groups of two. Students have
until February 13th, at 3pm
to submit their designs. No work may be submitted via email. Only work done
at and saved at school will be counted.
