This is our first STEM challenge for term 2 we made a periscope.
We maade periscopes because, we had a virtual tour of Te Papa, we learned about the war at gallipoli exhibition. We saw that they used periscopes to see over walls without being shot in the head, so we thought it would be fun if we made one.
I found it easy to fold the cardboard into a rectangle.
I found hard to glue on the mirrors.
I found it interesting how well they worked when we tested them.

Thank you for your positive, thoughtful, helpful comments.
Positive - something done well
Thoughtful - a sentence to let us know you actually read/watched or listened to what they had to say
Helpful - give some ideas for next time or ask a question you want to know more about

Kohe I like the idea of the periscope and knew they were in Submarines. I hadn't heard of them in seeing over walls. Do you have a main tip for anyone else who wants to make a periscope?
ReplyDeletethank you for your comment Dave
ReplyDeleteThe main tip would probably be to make sure your mirrors are glued in the right place because if they aren't your periscope won't work properly.
