A few class periods will be required to complete this physics investigation with your high schoolers. There is an unavailable video written into the lesson plan, but there is plenty of material here to bridge the gap. Two terrific outside websites are referenced, one includes a worksheet that guides learners through the bridge design and building processes. Not only would this be applicable to your physics curriculum, it could alternately be used in a STEM situation or an engineering elective.
