Making tunnels | Urban planning

This week for inquiry we had to make tunnels out of spaghetti, straws, tape and rubber bands.  We had to get into a group of 4. In that group of four you have to build a structure/tunnel that will be as stable to protect the ferrari. The amount of attemps that we needed to do to get the tunnel stable and safe got us very tired. But in the end we got our structure finished. So then every groups tunnel was up for the test. The test was where Mr ogilvie would have to put a groups tunnel in a tray and then he would pour in some sand to see if the tunnel would collapse and fall on the ferrari. Sadly my groups tunnel didn't pass that test, From what I saw I don't think that anyones tunnel pasted. Mr Ogilvie thought that we did a good job at making the structures. Other then that I really liked being apart of the urban planning group with Mr Ogilvie.

Tunnel poster

This week for inquiry we had to make a poster showing information about tunnels. We had to get into partners and I worked with Charlize. We used our researching skills to find information about How tunnels are made,How tunnels work and Information about tunnels. We added photos to guide what we were trying to say. We looked at sites to find information. Also we used google maps to search up famous bridges. I have included the google map that Charlize and I have done.
