Instructions and measurement

First we followed instructions to make paper planes.  Great to see children supporting others who were having problems.


We went outside for testing.  Some planes needed adjustments and every now and again a gust of wind made things tricky.

We measured out 1 metre markers on the concrete and predicted how far our planes would fly.


After predicting and measuring distance with metre rulers.  We flew our planes for fun!




We had loads of fun and learnt about measuring length.



Art focused on Robyn Kahukiwa and Matariki
