On the 21st and 22nd of August Term 3, we did challenges for innovation. We only got to use a newspaper and one metre of tape. We had three challenges which were probably 30-45 minutes each.
Our first challenge was to make a device that would catch a balloon and retrieve it. The balloon was three metres away from us and we couldn't move forward. My team (Gio and Dejon) couldn't retrieve the balloon but we managed to bounce the balloon with our device.
Our next challenge was to make formal clothes out of newspapers and ten metres of tape! We also added one more person into our group (Liam) and Gio left us. I was able to make a cape just in time and I also helped my friend Dejon to make a suit. But for this challenge we had to make two jackets, a skirt and a pair of trousers.
Finally our last challenge! We had to make another device with newspaper and one metre of tape. In this challenge we had to drop a marble and let it roll all the way until it passed the line or until it touched the can. Hitting the can equalled five points and passing the line was three points. Again, it was three metres away so we made a 1.5 metre device. Sadly we didn't pass the line because there was a little wall in our device so the marble couldn't get through.
Question: Out of all these challenges which one will you do?
hi Hayun I really like your blog it has a lot of info on every single paragraph in my opinion I liked the marble challenge.
