Structurally Speaking Essential Question: How does the purpose of a structure effect how a structure is built?
In Science, you have been learning about the way structures work. Now is the time to share what you know by researching a specific structure. You will need to collect information and a graphic about a unique man-made structure using an Internet website, trade books, and encyclopedias. You will use that information to produce a brochure about your structure. |
