Road making | Testing | Foundation

This week we did an experiment on making roads. We had to make the road out of Cardboard,straws and toothpicks. We got to use some cars (Ferrari's) to test out our road. We had to get into a group of 4, in my group was Alayah,Sulia and Angelica. We worked together to make the car stay on the road and not come off the sides, By doing that we used the straws to make barriers to keep the car driving straight. We tested our road several times to see if the cars would stay on the road and not drive off the sides. A group of people stayed outside and made a base, which was to keep the roads level, so that it was not bumpy for the cars. it was made out of sand. Also it was placed on the grass outside of the classroom.
