Description
Bring engineering to life in your classroom with this Types of Bridges resource, featuring six essential bridge designs: beam, arch, truss, suspension, cable-stayed, and drawbridge.
What’s included?
- Classroom display poster. This gives students a clear, labeled diagram for each bridge type, showing how it works, from load and tension to compression and support, paired with a real-world example from a different country. It makes it easy for students to compare different bridge types at-a-glance.
- “Bridges Around the World” 19 slide deck. For each bridge type, students get a “Think About It” discussion page with guided questions, plus a hands-on Investigate, Explore, or Design Challenge activity using everyday materials like paper, straws, string, and cardboard, so kids can test the engineering concepts for themselves.
Together, the poster and slides are perfect for STEM units, engineering and architecture lessons, or any classroom exploring how structures work.
Both PDF and PPTX versions included in the download.
