Technology Week RotationLast week on Friday 15
th August the whole school went to three different classrooms, including our own classroom.
In the first activity, in our classroom, we completed a
cliff challenge. What we had to do was draw a cliff and six people had to get up and down at the same time to get to a beach-without using electricity. I thought of a lift, one to go down and one to go up using a pulley.
After this we did an
egg mania challenge and this one was my favorite. What we had to do was take twenty straws and one long piece of sellotape. What you then had to do was take one raw egg and make a cover with the sellotape and the straws. Because we only had a certain amount of time we had to rush.
Finally we had the last activity which was making a
newspaper tower. We had four pieces of newspaper and one long piece of sellotape. We
didn’t win this one but that
doesn’t matter as we had lots of fun.
I felt happy that we went to different classrooms and the activity I liked most was the egg mania because after we had made the cover for the eggs, the student teacher in Room 13 dropped the eggs and all of Room 10’s cracked, apart from one.
At the end of that day I was exhausted!
