LI. We are learning to develop our knowledge of measurement, forces and scientific processes to solve a problem.

SC. We can plan, design and build a bridge that will hold weight.

SC. We will test and discuss what happened, what worked and what we would do differently next time.

This week P2 have been helping  Sir Harley Houndstooth III  survive on the deserted island by constructing a bridge to help him cross a lagoon. First we chunked the challenge and thought about how we were going to help Sir Harley. We decided to build bridges to help him cross the lagoon. Next we drew bridge designs and we used these designs to help us build a bridge using lolly pop sticks, string and cello tape. We all worked well in our teams and were able to able some of the team work targets that we had set in challenge one. We then tested our bridges by seeing how long they would be able stay up with one rubber on them spanning a 25cm gap between two tables and without falling down. We are all really enjoying our IDL context and are looking forward to the next challenge.
