Tower Challenge!

By Anonymous -

Today we did a Whetu Challenge! We had to try to make the tallest tower made out of newspaper! We worked in groups of three or four. I worked with Shirley, Cohen and, Daris. I think that I did better than last time we did this challenge. We didn´t get to measure it though because it could not free stand so we had to take it apart. We started off making a base and then we had to roll a lot of newspaper together so that it was really strong! We made it nearly as tall as the roof but it could not touch the roof because that would be counted as cheating!

I made the lake with a tooth past box and a plastic bag. I opened the box and flattened it and then stuck half the plastic bag and filled it up with water. I also put some beads and rock the made the water blue! Another favorite part of mine was the campfire because it was full of little rocks and we stapled some red and yellow cellophane together and put it in with the rocks. For grass, we pastled with three different shades of green and stuck some bushes on the ground to the sides. Tayla, Shirley, and I also pastled a night sky with a moon. Then the water started leaking but we fixed it by taking out the water.  We made a vi

I really like what it came out looking like, I think my results are 7/10 because I kind of rushed it at the last minute and also I think I left some white spaces.
