What are interconnected structures?

Interconnected structures are like building blocks that work together to make something bigger and stronger.

Imagine you're playing with toys, maybe lego bricks or Duplo blocks. Each block is simple on its own, but when you connect them together, they become a tower, a bridge, or even a castle! That’s what interconnected structures are like, each part connects to the others so they can support each other and do more than one piece could alone.

Think of a fence around your garden. Each post is like a block, and the railings are like the pieces that connect them together. If you take out one post, the whole fence might wobble, but if all the parts work together, it stands strong.

Or imagine a net catching fish in the sea, each thread connects to others so the net doesn’t tear when a big fish swims through.

So, interconnected structures are like teamwork, each piece helps the others, and together they make something amazing!
