Tug o War

  The mystery box arrived at our door way. I thought... what is this weird box that turned up at our door. mysterious.

Inside it was a big rope that looked like a coiled up snake in a box.

I found out it was for tug o war that we were doing at athletics  on Thursday.

We took it outside to measure it so we could see the middle for us to play tug o war.

First we measured it with our feet. When we got to the end Mrs Ellis wanted Floyd to measure it with the measuring wheel. He measured it. When he stopped he said it was 30m long so we halved that and we found it came up as 15 meters. We folded it up and found half way. Mrs Ellis tied the string around the halfway. We had teams and we had a game of tug war. The other team won. They had a pretty strong team, though it was a good game off tug o war. It's sad we lost because Tyler and Braith were in that team.

Tyler and Braith thought they were strong but they nearly lost because I had Anthony and liam on my team. They weren't that strong but they still tried hard.
