Our broken bridge =(


Tuesday, May 22, 2012
We started building our second redesigned bridge which we hope will e able to carry much more than our first.

Wednesday, May 23, 2012
We got one side of our bridge built and we're hoping tomorrow we can get the other side done.

Thursday, May 24, 2012
Today we finished building one side of our bridge but also started on our second part of the bridge. We plan on putting these sides together as soon as we finish the second side.

This picture is from Tuesday's work done.

Week 1

May 14, 2012

We decided that using different types of triangles will help our bridge be more sturdy. It's hard trying to cut the pasta down to the exact length. We haven't had any changes so far in our design.






May 15, 2012

Today we started and finished the second half of our bridge. Tomorrow hopefully we will be able to glue the two halfs together!





May 16, 2012

Today we fixed some parts of the bridge then began to make beams across so that we can glue the two halfs together. This took along time because we messed up the first time and had to restart.




May 17, 2012

Today we glued the road part of our bridge on. Now all we have to do is gle the other half and reinforce it.

May 18, 2012



Today we reinforced the bridge and finished it!

Bridge Ideas

We like how this picture gives you a variety of ideas.

We like the bottom part of the bridge because it gives a lot of support.

We like the deck of this bridge because it is thick and strong.

We like the suspension tower from the Golden Gate Bridge.  

We like how it is a double deck bridge because it makes it seem sturdy and strong. 

We like the design of the suspension cables.

We like the design of the arch that gives the bridge extra support.

Follow Us Because We're COOL

Meghan & Karina

Why are we cool? We're cool  because...  we both like like the beach, swimming, camping, seafood(yum), fruity drinks(super yum), dancing, naps (but who doesnt like naps), music, and spending time with our families. Karina loves Mexico and Tropical places while Meghan has never been to Mexico (even though that would be awesome) and she prefers places that are cold like Alaska. Some similar dislikes are people telling us what to do, snobby people, wailting (especially in a line), and gloomy days. Karina has three younger brothers (yikes) while Meghan has one older sister and two younger sisters (lots of girls). Karina's 16 and Meghans 17 and both are not into sports but prefer academic things. We both have many sides to us like the party side (whoo hoo), nice side, and mean side. Karina can be sarcastic while Meghan isn't very good at it and tends to be gullible (a lot).

      Really cool website: http://www.pandora.com/ Pandora is a really cool website because you can lisen to internet radio for free. This website is super easy to work all you do is type in an artist you like then it plays a song from that artist and a bunch of songs that are similar. It introduces you to new songs that you probably have never heard of before and can keep you entertained for hours. The best thing is that it's free so you dont have to worry about paying anything to sign on.
