Testing our Rapunzel Creations

What materials did you choose for your build and why? I chose wood for the base, and cardboard for the people. 

 

Here is a picture of my plan: 

 

Here is a picture of my first attempt at the building process: 

 

While you test:

 

What are you noticing? I’m noticing that it looks really weird. 

 

What things are working? It’s staying stab;e and together. 

 

What things are not working? It looks like a big mess, and it’s not working because I thought that it was just supposed to be a model that doesn’t do anything. 

 

How will you tweak this? Make this better? (Be specific and detailed!) I’m gonna make it so Repunzol can slide down the rope, and put her bed or pillows or something fluffy so she doesn’t get hurt when she comes down. 

 

Do you need any new materials? If so, WHY? Yes, I need something soft so she doesn’t get hurt when she comes down. 

 

Sketch your new design with labels on a piece of paper. 

Insert your sketch here:

Why will this new design work better than your first attempt? What is your evidence? It’s better because Repunzol can actually slide down the rope, and there’s extra protection on the bottom.
