Survivor Challenge-Week 4

Today was another technology challenge but a bit different to the engineer pasta and marshmellow challenge. This week we had to become fashion designers creating some wearable art within the theme of swimming. But we could only use two pairs of scissors, a couple of strips of cellotape that Mrs Head handed out and one roll of toliet paper.

We had five minutes to plan our ideas thinking about what we wear when we go swimming and any accessories we might have eg: snorkles, flippers, goggles, towels etc. Then we had 30 minutes to create our wearable art thinking carefully about how to put it together so that it didn't rip and without running out of tape to hold it together.

Some groups worked better than others this week with some teams struggling to get everyone involved. It is a team challenge so congratulations this week go to the Lightening Strikes who had everyone involved the whole time to create their wetsuited boogie boarder.






What would you have done if you were asked to create a swimming themed outfit made from toliet paper?

    That looks like so much fun and I a'm really looking forward to seeing what else you have for your survival challenges and what I would make is something easy to make like some speedos.
