This comprehensive lesson bundle includes everything you need to bring bridge-building to life in your classroom. Your students will be inspired by a curated list of annotated picture books, followed by a mini-lesson on the different types of bridges and how they support weight. Two interactive notebook pages with vocabulary, types, and forces help students engage with the material, while teacher tips and photos of real-life homemade bridges provide endless inspiration.
