    The document contains science and engineering homework assignments for three days that ask questions about technologies, structures, engineers, and testing structural designs. The assignments define technologies, ask students to identify technologies, and have them name technologies in their home. They define civil engineers and structures, ask students to name structures in their community, and explain the differences between stable and strong. The assignments also define and ask about critical loads and how civil engineers test them. The final assignment explains the importance of testing structural designs before building.
