Challenge Two Fern and Cardboard Shelters

Here we go again! Building shelters. 
This time we had some ferns from Mrs Grant's garden and we had to try and make a shelter with a strong roof and it had to be big enough to fit one of us inside or under it. 
We decided to use some of the playground equipment for support and we went to the top of the field where there were lots of climbing poles.
First we divided into groups and drew a plan. We could use cardboard and string, but not cellotape.

The wind made our challenge more difficult because the ferns were blowing around, but most of us all managed to work together and build a shelter. Some groups joined together and that worked well. 

Mrs Grant thought we were very CREATIVE because all our shelters looked different.
