Who Has the Tallest Tower?

WALT problem solve as a group.

Today Mrs R gave us challenge. We had to build a tower with Newspaper and Tape. We had 5 minutes to discuss as a  group how to make the tower and 15minutes to make our tower-
The tower had to stand up for 30 seconds.

The tallest tower won.

The challenging thing was to make the paper strong enough  to stand by rolling the paper and making sure it is small, that is what makes it strong It was also hard because we had to try not to waste the tape.

If I would do this again I would make sure that we know what we are doing and give each person a job to do. I would also make sure that we all have the same idea and if we don't then we can discuss about it.
