What we have learned this week

P6/7 have been making anemometers and wind turbines in S.T.E.M. ( science, technology,engineering and maths ) we worked in groups of 6 with the P5/6. On Monday in problem solving we were making spaghetti towers using team work to build the structure of the towers. We also had to be careful because the spaghetti is very fragile and it can break or snap easily.Our towers weren’t very successful because the spaghetti kept snapping.
