In Te Ngahere for the first day back at School we did a STEAM challenge. STEAM means Science, Technology, Engineering, art & math. We made a Tower only made out of 2 sheets of newspaper & a 30 cm piece of tape. We were in groups of 3 my group was AJ & Autumn. Our first Idea was to make it wide so that the base at the bottom would be stable so it could stand. What we realized it was not tall enough because we saw other people had twisted their newspaper to make it long. What we found hard was making it tall and making it stand at the same time, what my group found enjoyable was listening to each other’s ideas, what we could do better next time is to help each other more.
If you can make a tower out of random objects then try use 2 sheets of newspaper & a 30 cm piece of tape & tell me what happened.
Hi Ataahua it’s Autumn I really enjoyed you post about the STEAM challenge, I really liked how you added what you did well and what you could do better next time but the last sentence didn’t really make sense to me, It said: If you can make a tower out of random objects then try use 2 sheets of newspaper and a 30 cm piece of tape and tell me what happened, it would be a bit better if you said you can also try this out and tell me what happens but other than that I really enjoyed your blog post about the STEAM challenge. How tall was your tower?

Thank you, Autumn I really enjoyed your comment.
DeleteKia Ora Ataahua my name is Charlamine and I’m a year 7 student and I go to Waima Kura. Making a tower out of random objects isn’t as easy as it seems, but having fun is all about science. Creating and sharing ideas with other people is a way to inspire, and learn other ways to make different things out of the same objects. You tried your hardest to achieve a goal. Blog you later my blogging friend
