Straw Rockets

Last week on Friday LS2 spent the whole day at Tamaki college to learn and make rockets. We learnt how to make straw rockets. This is my procedural writing for making a straw rocket. After making rockets, Ms Ferguson flew her rocket 'Carrot' that she 3D printed, it flew up perfectly, but dissapered! It was very fun! I also added a collage of what happened at Tamaki college. 

Thank you to Ms Ferguson, and Mr Dunn for putting so much effort for Friday!

Rocket Learning at Tamaki College

Last week, on Friday LS2 went to Tamaki College to build paper models of rockets. We first tried making the straw rockets, using drinking straws, tape, and scissors. Our teachers Ms Ferguson and Mr Dunn taught and guided us through the process. For the first straw rocket we had no fins to see our distance, we then added more and more fins and saw that there was a difference since we added fins. I learned that the more fins you add, the further it goes.
