This paper will describe a teaching module that several senior architectural engineering students developed as their senior project. The teaching module targeted 5 or 6 grade students with the goal of creating an engineering outreach program that demonstrated a structural mechanics concept in a fun and interesting manner. The purpose of this paper is to describe the rationale behind the teaching module, and to document the changes we made to the module as we assessed its impact over several trial runs.
