Today in Eureka, we tried the tetrahedron pyramid challenge. For the challenge, you try to make the strongest and sturdiest structure out of tetrahedron pyramids. The structures are made out of skewers, then you use gummies to hold the skewers together. Once your structure is complete you see how many bibles your structure can hold. The team that holds the most bibles wins. My team tied in first place with 4 bibles.
Last week on Thursday 4th of March, my class and I worked on building a wooden box in the wood tech room. We were originally going to be paired with some of the older and more experienced kids, but the teachers made the decision of letting us work individually. We didn't finish our boxes but next week our class will go back into the wood tech room and finish them off.
At the start of last week, on Tuesday the 9th of March I participated in the school athletics day. I decided that I wanted to push myself this year and so I put my name down to participate in the following:
Listed above, is every event I can participate in on our school athletics day. The best event I competed in was the girl's high jump placing 1st for my year group. I am now hoping to extend my physical activity so that I am able to improve for next year's athletics day.
This week, my class and I worked on creating a mini punch scene. We had to film ourselves doing one punch and the victim reacting to the one punch. Our overall goal is to create an entire fight scene by the end of this trimester. For the past 5 weeks or so we've been learning a wide variety of different punches and kicks that would look good in our fight scenes, while still being safe.
