ENGINEERING
We held our first Engineering Week this year from March 4th - 8th.
On Monday we held a screening of Dream Big : An Engineering World in the library. We all really enjoyed it and learnt loads of information about engineering.
We completed the Engineering Personality Test and graphed the results of our class.
Ms O'Hanlon distributed different activities throughout the week.
Paper Cup Challenge: We had to build the biggest tower possible!
Spaghetti Bridges: We had to design and construct a bridge using spaghetti and elastic bands.
They were very messy but lots of fun!
Moon Landing Challenge: We had to make alterations to our spaceship ( cup) so that our astronaut ( marshmallow) could land safely on the moon.
On Thursday we had an engineering workshop from Learn It.
We made catapults with Rob and Niamh.
We all loved Engineers Week and look forward to it again next year!
