Buggy Relection

Buggy Reflection
We were taught about buggies because it was our topic for Term 4. We all buddied up and I was with Kaitlyn. We made a spreadsheet about buggies and we gave them to parents with buggies. The first one was really nervereaking so I made Kaitlyn to do it. After all the surveys were filled the parents wanted it to be made from aluminium. 100% looked for safety first and wanted only one seat. Most people wanted a 5 point harness and also wanted a sun cover. Also 100% of the people wanted three wheels and rubber wheels.
Here's the link to the survey

Paper planes and Scatter plots

In Math for the last week and a half my class did some measurement of paper planes. I was partners with Carys and we made 5 unique paper planes. We flew and tested them and measured the planes' wingspan. Open the link above and it will take you to the final result.
Our assertion was that the more flaps the plane has the further it would fly. We were totally wrong because the one with the most flaps went in a big loops outside while i was testing it. We realized that the more slender the plane was the further it would go because it cuts through the air very fast.
