Year 6 Science Experiements

In year 6 at Gate Pa school we had science day where we had to do one science experiment. My experiment was making a news paper tent for 6 people that would last for a night in the bush. It was one of the hardest thing I have ever done because we only had a roll of salotape and 10 sheets of newspaper. I was with a group of small people so we could squash in togther. We could try salotape the newspaper to the trees but it was very hard. My group tryed our hardest and we finished it but we stuggled so much. It was fun and challenging. I loved the task but also hated it because it took so long. We discovered that newspaper was not the best material because it was so soft. We noticed that it kept falling overand it kept braking because it was wet. The thing that worked was the mat because we didn't roll all over it and we put three layers down.
