Summer Learning Journey - Celebrating Summer - Week 6 Day 4 - Gliding Time

 Kia Ora bloggers! Welcome back to another crafty post! Today for the Kick Start task I had to make my own glider out of recycled items. So I used: Paper, sellotape, glue, cardboard and a kebab stick. I had a lot of fun making it. I also had to label some parts of the glider.

Here is my Glider:

My Glider didn't really work because it didn't fly in a straight line and kept flying everywhere. I also have a video of me testing the Glider:

And here is a video of me getting the Glider:

For the Step It Up task I had to Plan a design of a different Glider and then test it out and make a video which is above. The second test flight didn't really work because I think I added a Lego person which made it a bit heavier as well as a gliding handle.

Hope you enjoyed today's task!

Summer Learning Journey - Celebrating Summer - Week 5 Day 5 - It's A Balancing Act

 Kia Ora bloggers! Today I had to watch a video of someone stacking some rocks on the edge of a small river by a little water fall and the he takes photos of the stack. Then for the Kick Start task I had to try and stack some rocks like him in the video. And for the Step it up I had to do the same thing but either with only rocks or sticks or both. So I decided to use both as well as using sticks on their own. We also had to add an image onto a google drawing and add labels to what are the important parts of the stack. I also named my stacks, The Haunted Stone Temple, Sticks, Sticks And Even More Sticks!, and The Two-Headed Lizard.

Here is my slideshow I added them to:

Summer Learning Journey - Celebrating Summer - Week 2 Day 5 - 3D Paper

 Kia Ora Bloggers! Welcome back to another post. Today's task is about origami. We had to make a 3D star, a Paper cup and a Finger Trap. I had a lot of fun make them.  The first finger trap didn't work out because I made it a bit too big so I redid it. Then I made a smaller one. I also tried out the paper cup and the bottom of it started to go a bit soggy. I tried to make the star a few times but the paper kept on ripping and then the last time I finally got it right. I made a slideshow for the Instructions for the paper Finger Trap. Here is the slideshow:

I also have the videos for you to try make them:

Summer Learning Journey - Celebrating Summer - Week 2 Day 4 - Building A Dam

Kia Ora Bloggers. Welcome back to another post! Today we had to build our own dam!! Do you know what a dam is?? Its a big wall that stops water from leaking through and for people and animals to get water instead using tap water!

We also had to put them on a google drawing and write a description about it for the kick start task and then for the step it up task we had to write down what worked and what didn't work.

Here are the google drawings:

Check out a little video of my dam in action

Hope you enjoyed my blog!
