Steam challenge

 Kia ora bloggers,

today we had to do a Steam challenge. 

for the create task we had to make a table that would hold the weight of one book and if it did we would try two books and so on. We could only use a 10 pieces of news paper and 1m of tape to make our table. For my teams design we tried to make 5 poles of news paper and one or two pieces on top to hold the book but it didn't work that well as we couldn't get the 5th pole to go underneath but it wouldn't stay so we left it out but we could tell that our table wouldn't be able to hold the weight so we tipped it upside down and we thought it could hold the books but it only held one.

 Kia ora bloggers,

For the last couple of weeks we have been have been doing our Matariki ink art.

We started by drawing a design on a draft copy, then we went on to a piece of foam and once you've done that you can pick the ink colours you want and paint over your piece of foam and apply it onto a piece of A4 paper, then we had to cut it out, then we trace an outline of a cardboard frame for our frame, then we had to stick our art onto the back of our frame and then we had to sign it with our initials or signature. Here is a picture of my art. It might look brown and blue but its purple and blue.
