The spaghetti marshmallow challenge 2019

Science marshmallow challenge 

Today, On the 29th of November 2019, We did a marshmallow challenge where we had to use pasta (spaghetti sticks)100cm sellotape, and 100cm string and 1 marshmallow and we had to build a tower using those materials and the time limit was 18 mins. It was lots of fun but it was also challenging. We had taped the spaghetti sticks together again because the spaghetti sticks would break easily so we had taped them together on a box then put the marshmallow and here's what it looked like. We had finished and we came second and it was 51 cm tall and Joshua's group came first with 560 mm.

2019 Maori week Myths and legends blog

2019 Maori week Myths and legends blog

For the past week or so, I have been working on my Maori Myths and legends and the myth/legend I did was Maui taming the sun to go slow. Maui was a leader of a Maori tribe.
The sun was gliding around too fast so at night Maui gathered the men in the tribe and said "Tribe, we need to slow the sundown" but the tribe said that it will just burn you then he explained that "if we use some flax ropes to hold the sundown then with my grandfathers jawbone, I can hit the sun then he will begin to stop. In the morning, Maui and the men came got some flax then they went back to make some flax ropes. After making some ropes, it became night so Maui and the men went to where the sun would rise and then when they had hidden the sun started appearing and then Maui Said "NOW" and they threw ropes over the sun and then Maui then with his grandfather's mighty jawbone, he started to hit the sun a few times and it started to really hurt so the sun said "OK, OK Stop or I will die" and he said " I will start going slower so in the morning when they woke up the sun was going really slow so now they could hunt, fish, eat and that's the story of Maui and the sun.
