Science: Rockets - Afu

Last week on Friday all the yr 7 and yr 8's went over to Tamaki college for tech, after tech we did science with Mr Dunn. Mr Dunn showed us a couple of videos about rockets, and he showed us a video about how to make a straw rocket. When we finished watching the video we had to get into groups, my group was Sakae, Breeana, Charlize, Jorja, and Maata. We had to predict what will happen to our rocket.Then we had to make our own straw rockets, we got to pieces of straw, tape, and wings. When we made our straw rocket we had to use the straw to blow the rocket,we had to do fair testing, we done that three times, then we had to add wings then fly it three times, then we had to add our last wings then fly it three times. Then we got to make real rockets, we did not get enough time to make so we are going to make it this week. We went outside to the field to see Mr Dunn's rocket fly, it went really high. Then Mr Dunn flew Ms Ferguson's 3d carrot rocket. It went to the sky but we did not see it come down, then we had to go back to the class room and pack up, then go back to school. I had fun at Tamaki College making rockets, Thank you Mr Dunn.
