Can I build a playground?

Hey blog buddies, today we made a Tinker-cad playground. The aim was to design a playground that the juniors could play on. We were designing it for the juniors because there play ground was taken out.
Here is a screencastify describing they elements of the playground.
Do you think I should add anything to the playground?
I found this quite challenging because I am not good at designing things.
If you have used Tinker-cad then you might know the struggle.

Taekwondo time

Hey blog buddies,
On Thursday our class went to Taekwondo.
Our instructor has taught us how to kick, punch and do a lot of exercises.
This week was our kicking competition.
I looked Ridiculous when I was kicking, however my friend Caitlin won the competition.
Before the competition we did relays and my favourite relay was shoulder taping.
Shoulder tapping is when you go down in push up position and you tap your shoulders.
Here are some photos:





The last one was the photo of me jumping!
Do you like Taekwondo ?
My least favourite part is having to take my shoes and socks of in 10 seconds.
Thank you for checking out my blog.

Catch you next time blog buddies!

I can build a tent?

This week in  geometry math I a made model of a tent. They had to be 3D and  have different shapes. I used  equilaterals and squares. 

An equilateral is a  half triangle.

I found It very tricky because you would do something and it would collapse. 

I think  it was collapsing because of the amount of clay and not a lot of tooth picks.

To make it we used the moulding clay to stick the toothpicks into and and I used more tooth picks to act as support. 
Here are some photos:



 



To make the model  we had to use:
Plasticine clay
tooth picks 
mine was very stable in the end. And I needed to use lots of toothpicks.
It was all a bit frustrating in the end. I had some clay extra so I made furniture.
I made a chair (that sort of looks like a toilet seat) under the chair I made carpet. and a bed.
If i did it again I would change how much of the clay I used and the design.  
My favourite part was
