Forces That Act on Structures

We have spent time learning a lot about different structure types and now it is time to think about the forces that affect these structures.  There are two types of forces - Internal and External.  Today we will take a closer look at them.

First we will read for understanding by highlighting and taking notes from text.  Second, we will watch a Brain Pop video to extend our learner and to make more connections. Third, we will do a few experiments to demonstrate how these forces work.  Finally, we will enjoy some licorice after we use it to show our understanding!

Let's get started!
