I. REMARKS
PERFORMANCE TASK: THE BRIDGE
Materials:
Popsicle sticks (100-150 pieces, standard size)
Wood glue or hot glue gun with glue sticks
Ruler or measuring tape
Clamps or rubber bands (for holding pieces together while glue dries)
Scissors or utility knife (for cutting sticks if needed)
Pencil
Paper (for sketching the design)
Weights (optional, for testing the bridge’s strength)
Specifications:
Bridge Length: 65 cm
Width: 15 cm
Height: 15-20 cm (optional, adjust based on your design)
Instructions:
1. Plan Your Design
Draw a simple sketch of the bridge on paper. Consider common bridge designs, such as truss bridges or beam
bridges, which provide stability and strength.
2. Build the Base
Lay out popsicle sticks in parallel rows to form a base that is 60 cm long and 15 cm wide. Glue the sticks
together, layering them to reinforce the structure, and let dry completely.
3. Create Trusses (Sides of the Bridge)
Construct two identical trusses to form the sides of the bridge. Arrange popsicle sticks in a triangular pattern
along the 60 cm length, connecting sticks with glue at each joint. Allow these structures to dry fully.
4. Attach the Trusses to the Base
Once the trusses are dry, glue them upright on each side of the base. Ensure they are securely attached to
provide vertical support. Use clamps or rubber bands to hold everything in place until the glue sets.
5. Add Reinforcements
Strengthen the bridge by adding horizontal and diagonal popsicle sticks between the two trusses, connecting
the sides. This will help distribute weight and increase stability.
6. Allow Glue to Dry
Let the entire structure dry for several hours to ensure maximum strength.
7. Test the Bridge (Optional)
Gradually place weights on the bridge to test its strength. Observe any weak points and note how the design
could be improved for additional projects.
Tips:
Be precise with your measurements to maintain symmetry.
Apply glue sparingly to avoid excess mess and ensure joints are strong.
Reinforce weak areas by layering additional sticks in those spots.
Good luck building your popsicle stick bridge!
Mechanics and Rubrics for Popsicle Stick Bridge Activity
Mechanics:
1. Objective: Each student or team will build a bridge using only the provided materials. The bridge must be able
to span a 60 cm gap and meet structural requirements as outlined.
2. Specifications:
o Bridge Length: 65 cm
o Width: 15-18 cm
o The bridge should be able to hold at least a moderate amount of weight without collapsing (such as
small weights or items specified by the teacher).
o Creativity in design is encouraged, but the bridge must be stable and meet the required
measurements.
3. Presentation and Testing:
o Each student/team will present their bridge to the class, describing their design choices.
o Bridges will then be tested by gradually adding weight to evaluate their load-bearing capabilities.
