Hungry Caterpillar's Bridges

On Monday the Hungry Caterpillar's reading group read an article called "Spaghetti Connection".

This article was all about a group of kids who had to make bridges out of dried spaghetti, blu-tack and two blocks of wood for the BP Technology Challenge.

Their bridge had to support the weight of two wood blocks. Check out their bridges! (And thank you to Sally for helping!)
