Making a rocket balloon

We will be making our rocket balloons tomorrow. Mdm Irni went through the steps with us just now. Here are the steps.

1)Number 1 will pump air into the balloon and twist the mouthpiece.
2)Number 2 will take a peg and secure the mouthpiece with a wooden peg.
3)Number 3 is to use felt pens to paint the features of a rocket ship on both sides of the balloon.
4) Number 4 will take a piece of string and put it through the drinking straw.
5) Number 1 will place a drinking straw along the length of the balloon and attach it with some masking tape.
6) Number 2 and Number 3 will stand at each side of the class and hold the string tightly. The rocket balloon should be with Number 2.
7) When all the groups have set up their ‘Rockets’, all of you are to count down to zero.
8) At zero, Number 4 will release the pegs and let the ‘Rockets’ fly.
9) The first rocket to reach Number 3 will be the champion.

We are very excited and we are looking foward to our 'Rocket balloon' activity tomorrow.

Yours sincerely,
Pupils from 1 Kindness
