“STEM” is the acronym of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Today we began our STEM learning. This is where different concepts are integrated and taught together. It can be around a problem and is project based learning.
We watched a video about the history of catapults and how effective they were as a weapon. Next we watched how to make a catapult and discussed how we could investigate, gather data and measure our results therefore incorporating a variety of Mathematical concepts-Measuring and Statistics.

| We collected what we needed. |
 |
| We watched the video carefully. |
We worked together and shared our ideas helping each other.
 |
| Blake focused and building his catapult. |
The finished catapult. Now we will be using these to investigate Measurement and Statistics.
 |
| Daniel created another concept of a catapult . |
We made need to make changes to our first prototype.
 |
| Alan looking very pleased with his effort. |
