Marshmallow catapult

Last week in Te Ngahere we made Catapults.  Our challenge was to work as a team and see who’s could launch the furthest. For equipment we could only use skewers, rubber bands, marshmallows , masking tape and a spoon. Once we had finished building our catapult we tested it out. Our catapult launched the marshmallow over to the other side of the class. When we went outside to have a competition to see who’s could launch the farthest our catapult started breaking. When it was our turn it didn't launch that far as when we were in the class. We tried to fix it and when we went for another go it went further than our first attempt. I enjoyed making the catapults and enjoyed competing against other groups.
