This week we were learning more about Rome . Specifically we learned about Roman arches and their building projects. The Romans built 6 bridges over the Tiber River and 5 of them are still in use today! They also invented concrete. Our project this week was to make a Roman arch out of pudding boxes.

Here is David cutting the sides of the boxes to make them a wedge shape.
