The Wrecking Ball

We have been revisiting our popular experience of the wrecking ball. 


First of all we had to build the frame 

This was tricky as we had to line the pieces up straight to get them to fit. Leo and Chloe are using teamwork to meet this challenge. 

The next challenge was to build the block structures that were going to get knocked down 


Then it was time to swing the wrecking ball. We were not guaranteed a strike every time, in fact sometimes it took several tries to hit a building. We had to use our hand eye-coordination to be successful. We also had to think about direction, force and  where we positioned the items we built to be wrecked. 

We revisited the wrecking ball over several days and in different locations. Thsi was such a fun way of developing our working theories
