Caden and Carlin's bridges

At the end of the school year the Math classes assign the students some sort of project as part of their grade.  This year the kids had to build a bridge.
They had to choose between building an edible bridge or a strength bridge out of wood.  There were certain dimensions and materials they could use for each one.
Off to store we went to buy graham crackers, frosting, and licorice.  Dustin helped them design the bridges and they constructed the bridges.  We thought it was unusual to build a bridge for a Math class but at least it helps them be creative!  Both got A's! :)
