Higher and Stronger
I missed this challenge due to illness.
Paper Cargo Plane
1) I just made the only paper airplane I know how to make from childhood.
2) I changed the angle of the wings and tucked in the back after some trial runs.
3) It actually glided very well but it was inconsistent so sometimes it would crash and other times it would glide far.

Catapult Challenge
1) Our catapult used the flex of the popsicle stick as resistance to launch the marshmallow.
2) The catapult was angled to high so the marshmallow would shoot straight up. We had to remove some of the popsicle sticks to make it lower and angle it so it would shoot forward.
3) We all pretty much agreed on all the design ideas and each person spoke up and gave their input into the design.

Zip Line Challenge
1) Once the basket reached the end the ball wouldn't fall out so we had to keep taking parts of the basket off so it would fall properly.
2) We used ribbon as the zip line so that there would be less friction and more slippery.
3) Putting tape around the opening to control the exit a little more.
4) It helped with my teamwork skills and communicating as a group.
