This week for our technology of the Maori unit we read about Maori fish hooks and nets. We then worked in teams of 2 or 3 to create a fishing rod using only the materials provided. We were given 16 sheets of double newspaper, 4 metres of string, 2 paper clips, one roll of sticky tape, 4 sheets of A4 card and scissors (for construction only) and 30 minutes to create our fishing rods. After that we were challenged to catch as many fish as possible in 2 minutes. This proved to be quite a difficult task with some groups not catching any fish. Fynn, Michael and Kerryn won the challenge by catching 4 fish. Well Done boys.
