catapult dlo

 paragraph 1 

Our task was to build a catapult. The teacher gave us a variety of catapults to build. I made a storming the castle catapult. A catapult uses a lever to pull the throwing part of the catapult and then release it and then the piece of tinfoil goes flying away. The persons that went the furthest got a prize. When I was making the catapult I used 6 rubber bands and 7 popsicle sticks. I used two rubber bands to attach 5 of the popsicle sticks together.  The other two popsicle sticks I used for the leaver two put the spoon on and attached the spoon to the leaver but it was a little hard to attach the spoon to the leaver. After that I was finished however it took me a while to put it together. It was a lot of fun to make the catapults.


Paragraph 2

 I didn't come first but it was still a lot of fun. If I had enough time I would have modified it. It would have gone further if I had put more rubber bands and made the catapult bigger and taller. I would have put more  popsicle sticks on it. It didn't fire far because I am not that good at building catapults but i almost got second i was just a little bit behind but it was fine we only got to have one small treat so i wasn't really excited.
