Today in SCIENCE we:

• Finished our Tallest Towers.
• Tested our tower. How did yours do?
• In our journal we drew our tower & answered the following questions: 1) Why did your tower work? 2) Why did it fail? 3) What are the differenes between the three components that you used? 4) What wyould you change for next time? 5) Using your tower as an example, describe the terms: structural stress, deformation, fatiuge, & failure.
• Got the Egg Drop Project.
• HOMEWORK: Come prepared to start building tomorrow. Go through your recycling at home, see what you have that might work for your structure.
• D-Day is MONDAY!
