Seeing as how we had people involved with the Masterton Cultural exchange, Rooms 9 and 12 got together to get our 'technology groove' on. Our brief was to design and then build a boat that would hold an ever increasing weight. The materials included tinfoil, plastic straws, 1 piece of large paper, sellotape, small sticks and scissors. 10 minutes of planning and then 25 minutes of constructing before the test was done to see which boat would hold the most moro/crunchie bars. Congratulations to Blaise, Charlotte and Harriet who had both an aesthetically appealing as well as functional design and took out the title for todays challenge. A big congratulations to both classrooms who planned thoroughly before they started building. Your communication and sharing of ideas was robust and awesome to witness! So are you ready for our next challenge?
