The "Miss Adventure" Series
Activity #4
Ally & Brenda Setting Up
LEGO
"Miss Adventure" #4
We made a fishing pole and a trap
to catch food.
We didn't have much trouble with
the pole, but our mackerel was too heavy at first. It fell apart.
Then, we arranged the axles to
snap when something moves. Finally, we made a bear on its hind legs to
step in the trap.
The person stranded on the "Miss
Adventure" island will now have utensils to catch food.

on the island.
They made a fishing pole, a

They used the Gateway computer
to build their model on the LEGO CAD program.
Next week Jamie and Kevin will
struggle with the problem of signaling for help.
