PBL float your boat

Making a boat out of only: Tape, 4 plastic cups, 4 paper and a strip of tin foil is really hard.

My group stuck two cups together and two straws at the bottom with some tin foil in the middle. We cut up straws and made a border on the top of it. It was coming together really well! Then Jasmine made a nest which the marbles were going to go into. For ours we used all the material we had to make it. It was hard because we had to share the tape. 

Question: 

Do you ever do anything like this at your school, or even at home?

THE END.

Museum Trip

On Tuesday the 17 of September the year 5 and 6 went to the Museum. First we saw the Patupaiarehe which are people that use weapons and tools from green stone and he only feared one thing and it was sandstone because sandstone was the only thing that could cut through him one day they were chasing each other then eventually stopped the man made out of green stone curled up in a rock and slept in the morning he got woken up by the sound of someone walking in the ocean he thought it was kirikiri but he looked and it was a woman and he immediately fell in love with her so he kidnapped her when her husband found out that his wife was missing so he got his spear and threw it up in the air and it pointed itself to where she was freezing cold and depressed and begged him to take her back to her husband he swam to a river and left her in the cold and tried to hunt down her husband. So he swam back to the woman and thought of a plan. There's more but I think it will be a bit boring. Next we saw other tools the olden day Maori used, then we went to: 'The Playground' It's where you try out what the olden Maori used to use tools. Then we lunch, played in a gigantic tree and had some free time in the museum. Then we left! The end.
