Kia Ora
As of this day, we went to the hall and built bridges and designed them, but at first we watched videos on how they were controlled. Then we had to choose to be in a group of four, Next we looked at videos that presented bridges like the Bascule bridge in Whangarei that moves for boats, The next instruction Whaea Ruth gave was building the longest tower out of Jenga blocks without it falling , As a team of four we managed to make a tall building but we weren’t the tallest because we didn’t know you could also stack up the box containing the Jenga pieces.
After we finished that challenge Whaea Ruth gave us we were instructed to do the same thing but we had to the the pieces on an uneven terrain, Which means we had to stack up the pieces in a scrunched up cloth, It was hard and our tower kept falling down. In the end we didn’t make it work as it kept falling into pieces.
The last challenge we had to do was making a stable bridge out of cardboard, We were given scissors and the cardboard and 30 minutes too make the bridge, We made the bridge by ideas and no use of inspiration or reference, We ultimately built a steady bridge but we couldn’t build the entrance of the bridge with the limited time we were given.
Overall it was a fun learning experience that we had, Thank you for reading my blog.
