Hello fellow bloggers its Sarah here. The kea team has been doing earthquake experiments. This week my group: Talita,Mesa,Ahliya,Ricky,Elijah and i have been forming structures out of lego to create Earthquakes we wrote a hypothesis to predict what would happen our hypothesis was we thought that our tallest and hollow structure would collapse quickly and... IT DID!!we were so excitecd and shocked because our hypothesis worked!!. What i found challenging about this experiment was building our tallest building because it used most of the legos.

What i found easy about this challenge was that i gave everyone on my group a job to do and everything was going as smooth as butter! we had so much fun creating earthquakes😊.
