Tennis Ball Tower Challenge




Today for our Whetu Challenge we worked in a group to build a tower out of newspaper, 2 straws and sellotape. We needed to make our tower strong enough to hold a tennis ball and be able to stand alone (not leaning on anything or needing support).
Today I worked with Candace and Sophia.
At first we had trouble with almost everything because Sophia was being a bit silly but we got it done.
The easiest thing was building the thing but it did fall a few times but that is okay.
The best part of our tower was the cup at the top because it was made by me so I really liked that.
Our tower looked very messy, very very messy but still cool.
In the end it did work out pretty bad and good.

    You guys worked really well and I think your tower turned out great! Nice and sturdy too.

Finger prints

 This week for one of our rotations was fingerprinting where we get ink on our fingers and we dab some of the ink on to a paper towel if it is too much and we print it on a piece of paper and it will show our fingerprint.  on the day police named Sally came in to show us how to see your fingerprint and told us some cool facts about your fingerprints. Did you know that you get your fingerprints when you are 16 weeks in your mum's tummy, pretty cool.
