Team 4 was given the opportunity to take part in the EPro8 Challenge. Room 6 got to have their turn in Week 6. Our task was to construct a scarecrow that could stand at 1.6 metres tall, have realistic proportions and could move at least 2 metres. Miss Tuiā added some other specs that we could work with. We even had to come up with our own backstory, giving our scarecrow their own name and life.
Our class had to get into groups of 4. We tried to mix the groups up as much as we could. We worked very hard to construct these scarecrows. There were poles, nuts, bolts, ropes, coloured joiners, gears, axles, wheels and tools that we could use to construct our very own scarecrow.
The different groups were JHKW, Sentinel, Blue Gyals, NLB, Scarecrow 2000 and Spy Barbies. We had heaps of fun, working together as groups and getting to experiment with the different tools and equipment.
