Technology Rotation
Hey guys, hows it been?
In Waitemata, we did a problem solving challenge where we used paper, tape, a plastic cup, sticks, and straws. Our goal was to create a bridge or structure of some sort to carry an average sized marble. Here are some photos of students having a go at the challenge!
In Manukau, we learnt how circuits are made and how electrons flow through steel objects. We used a Lithium battery, a LED light, Tinfoil, and pins to create our own circuits. Look below for some images of students trying to make circuits!
And finally, In Hauraki made Geoboards.
A Geoboard is a piece of wood with nails hit in it for rubber bands to be stretched on, its pretty cool, take a look!
I really enjoyed making all sorts of Technology related things, my favourite part of this was making a circuit. Maybe next time I'll try and not hit my thumb with a hammer for the Geoboards! 🤣
Anyways, thanks for reading my blog, I'll see you next time!
Peace! ✌
Anyways in Te Waka Ako we had a technology rotation were we did an activity in each class. (Waitemata, Manukau, Hauraki)
In Waitemata, we did a problem solving challenge where we used paper, tape, a plastic cup, sticks, and straws. Our goal was to create a bridge or structure of some sort to carry an average sized marble. Here are some photos of students having a go at the challenge!
In my group we used lots of straws, tape and string to carry our marble! |
This group used sticks and and cut their plastic cup to create this structure! |
In Manukau, we learnt how circuits are made and how electrons flow through steel objects. We used a Lithium battery, a LED light, Tinfoil, and pins to create our own circuits. Look below for some images of students trying to make circuits!
This person used the Tinfoil as wires to create a circuit! |
This person used door pegs and tinfoil for his circuit! |
And finally, In Hauraki made Geoboards.
A Geoboard is a piece of wood with nails hit in it for rubber bands to be stretched on, its pretty cool, take a look!
After cutting the wood, these people are ready to make measurements for their Geoboard! |
