Tennis Ball Tower Challenge
Today for our Whetu Challenge we worked in a group to build a tower out of newspaper, 2 straws and sellotape. We needed to make our tower strong enough to hold a tennis ball and be able to stand alone (not leaning on anything or needing support).
Today I worked with Lily and Marly I worked with them because I have never worked with them before and we were quite happy with what we did.
At first, we had trouble getting the newspaper to stay because it was very floppy but we all loved a good challenge.
The easiest thing was building the base because it was very strong because we taped a whole lot of newspaper together so that was the easiest thing dor us
The best part of our tower was that it was very tall it measured at 118cm so we were very happy and we got the tallest tower so we are very proud.
Our tower looked a bit funky because there was a lot of sellotape all over it and it looked very weird but it's still the tallest so we didn't care
In the end, our tower fell over because the top we not that strong so it could fall over but it held for a long time so it doesn't matter.

Your tower looks really tall and good! It looks like you had lots of fun!
