Last week on Friday, LS2 went to Tamaki College to make paper models and straw models of rockets. We first made straw rockets using two pieces of straw, one thick one thin, sellotape, scissors and rocket fins (paper). I had to write in procedural writing the steps.
I am a Year8 student at Panmure Bridge School in Auckland, NZ. I am in Learning Space 2 and my teachers are Mrs Anderson and Ms Kirkpatrick.

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.
