Today was a pretty good day we made structures on the computer and we were making a sketch on how our fugure should be tommorow.

Jordan

Today was another great class! My favorite part was planning and starting to build our structures with straws and pins. I also liked the contest when we used a program on the computer. This has definately been a great camp so far, and I can't wait until the next classes. Thanks! Jordan

Today was really fun especially when i won the bridge making competition. I won it with a compression of only 36 SO IT WAS PRETTY COOL. IT WAS ALSO realy fun making plans and starting my building structure thqat has to hold marbles and has to be tall too. I cant wait to finish the competition tomorow!

Eleanor

I had fun building the structures out of straws. It would have been better though though if they had let us build longer and not work on the computer as long.

Suzy

Today we built structures on the computers and we started to build structures out of straws.

Today we designed a bridge on a certain website and tried to distribute a weight 100 lb. to make the least amount of weight on all of the imaginary pillars. After that, we started to build a builking that could hold plenty of marbles and have the building still touch the sky.
