Building Bridges

This grant would enhance the math enrichment, bridges portion of this elective course that supplements the CPM program. The ?Building Big? video set and the K?Nex Comprehensive Bridge Set will give the students a chance to see how architecture and engineering are used in the world. Students explore the man-made wonders and then build their own bridges using some of the skills learned in math and science with every day materials. With the K?Nex kit students are able to plan and build model bridges while building a sense of camaraderie among the students.
