I like drawing houses and making things with paper. Lately, I’ve been curious about why some shapes hold more weight than others. One day, I’d love to design a treehouse.

Something I explored
I went back to my bridge and folded the edges of the paper. I tried it again with the same light paper load. It bent less this time. I still want to find out whether the distance between the supports makes a difference.
My next question
What happens if I make the bridge longer?

About Me
I like drawing houses and making little things. I want to try building a bridge out of paper. When I grow up, I think I’d like to make places for people to live.

Something I explored
I put a sheet of paper between two stable books. The paper bent when I added a light paper load. I drew what happened so I could remember it.
My next question
Can I change the shape without adding more paper?
