Quidditch STEM

This week Miss Stark set P7S a STEM challenge to design and create a Quidditch broomstick with natural outdoor materials. She only gave us 5 elastic bands and 2 metres of string to help. Over the course of the week we planned, prepared and evaluated our task.

This morning we went to the woods at the Delph Pond to gather our outdoor materials. We worked in groups of 3 and had loads of fun collecting stuff like sticks and leaves.

We came back and had half an hour to assemble our brooms with our teams. Then when our time was up we presented our brooms to the class. Take a look at our design process and finished products below, we hope you like them! We are SO proud of them!
