The news paper challenge!

W.A.L.T: Write a recount about "The news paper challenge".
When you walk into your literacy class does your teacher say “ Were doing a newspaper challenge? Well  Mr Goodwin gave us the task to build a newspaper tower in eight minutes. Our team thought that it was going to be hard with the things we were using, but we came out coming first. Let me tell you how this happened!


Mr Goodwin told us to separate in groups of five. It looked easy but then it got difficult with the materials we were using. Which were: newspaper , scissors, masking tape and eight minutes on the clock. When that clock started everyone was in the zone.


Our group planned for about the first two minutes of the challenge. So after that little chit chat about the structure and stuff we just anything to be honest. Just scrunch and flatten and roll and all kind of things that we did. We were just taping and taping and we finished in time, but really when you look at it I don’t think we got it all nice and built at least it was standing!


Judging time! We just had a professional judge because he was using his leg to see what the height was! He was judging there and judging here and the results came in! Well actually Mr Goodwin thought it was a tie. So he got a big ruler and measured it. Now finally the proper results came in…… WE WON,like I already told you at the beginning.

It was a cool experience to be apart of. It made us work together as a team and made us friends and the end of the day. Thank you Mr Goodwin for the awesome activity you have givin us!
