My catapult

Have you ever made a catapult at school? Well we made some and it was awesome. You are probably wondering why we made it.here's the reason why we made it was to learn how energy works. The energy we were learning about was potential energy that means it waiting liked stored. Another one of them is kinetic energy it means it ready to move like running. Then the last one is gravitational potential energy. Later we started making them.

The first thing we did was get six popsicle stick from our literacy teacher.Then you get three piece of sellotape. The next thing you do is get four out of six popsicle stick and stack it up like pancakes. Next you get your other two and put them together like a tweezers. Then you tape the one of the side. Finally you get your sticks and put it inside the stack, and there you have it your catapult.Now for the war.

We were given our only one secret weapon, a pompom. Then the war began. Everyone was going nuts and crazy on each other. It was going so crazy that and could barely see a pompom. Me and my friends Julianna, Kiarah , and Keyana were running away to room twenty three to escape from the war and not get shot. Suddenly out of nowhere Mr Moran came in and joyed. After a very long time Mr Moran yelled ‘stop’, everyone was frozen. After Miss King exclaimed ‘all the girls go to room twenty one and boys go to room twenty three.

As we were going to the rooms we were told I was thinking if we were having a battle. When we got to our rooms and sat down Miss King taped a square and a line for the battle of the zone. Miss King explained the rules to everyone she said ‘who ever get the ball in the square or near it they go into the finals’. Everyone was super excited. It was go .

Miss Teleso picked ten girls and one of them was me. We stepped up on the line with all our toes behind the line. None had got in, but wait there were eight lucky people who got in the finals. Miss King said ‘ first to three’. After the rounds it was the final one and the winners were Aaron and Jermaine.

I felt amazed and it was cool. My favourite part was when I shot it on Julianna’s head and she shot it back to me.I was puffed and it was cool.
