Kia Ora Bloggers,
On Tuesday for the Wonder Project we created our own Rockets. Room 9,6 and 8 went into the hall to talk about Newtons 2 law of motion. Newtons 2 law is F=ma, F is for force, M is for mass and A for Acceleration. If you apply more force to an object it moves at a higher rate, Mass is the weight of an object and acceleration is movement.
Then after Colm told us all about Newtons 2 law of motion the teachers handed out papers for everyone to make paper planes. Colm said that when we create our rockets it has to fly in the right direction. He asked people who thought their plane flew high to come up and show everyone. All of them were good and then he told people who thought there plan flew badly to come up and show everyone. This girl came up and flew hers and it didn´t even go off the stage. He told us the wings where the problem because there was a hole in it.
Then after that we went back into class to build our prototype rockets. We started of by cutting the top of a bottle and putting it on another bottle. Then we made our wings and drew that was on Neha´s rocket because we chose. We attached the wings and then put our bottle in a box where all the other groups prototype rockets where.
This was so much fun and I am really excited to launch them next week.
