Technology Challenge

On Monday we took part in a technology challenge to make a paper plane that could turn as it flew. We got into groups of four and were given four pieces of A4 paper, two drinking straws, 1m of sticky tape and a blob of blu-tak. Each team had 15 minutes to come up with a design that included at least one of the straws and to build it. We then took it in turns to try our planes out. It was lots of fun and we are going to be writing about the experience so keep an eye out for some writing in the near future. For the moment here are some of the pictures from the afternoon.
