I think the most Efficient one was the spear, because it has a sharp pointy edge making more dangerous and threatening.
Teagan what a thought out response! Well done!

Hi Charlotte, tomorrow morning’s meeting (9 am) will be in Lee’s room.
I Definitely think the spear, Because it has a Very pointy edge Which
Has Very likey hood of going throw the Animal or person you are Hunting
i really liked this task and i thought the most effective looking tool was the woomera!!
Can you tell me why you thought the woomera was the most effective tool for hunting Ella?
I think the spear is the best because it can there could be Different tops for Different Strategies and could be carried in A lot of places
I like your thinking Jimmy! 🙂
i think the spear beacause it would be easy to throw and because it is long
Interesting thought!
i think the woomera is most efficient because it can be used as many tools. therefore it can be used for hunting different things, and if you get good at aiming it will not be so hard to use.
I think that the Woombara would be the most effective because you can do a lot of Different thing with it and it is also a really good hunting tool.
Someone else thought the same thing too Lucy… interesting to see your responses to this question.
I think the spear would be the best one to use because with the woomera it makes aiming more difficult and sometimes the boomerang wont come back. also the spear is more sharp and dangerous
mmm… interesting perspective Liesel.
i think the most Efficient weapon would be the woomera because it is a 61cm-91cm spear and it can be used in different ways like digging or just to used as hunting.
I like that you are thinking of the other purposes the woomera could have! Great job!
i think the woomera is the most efficient because it has several uses
i think it is a spear Because a spear has a sharp end and it it like a knife so it can hurt you
I think the most affective was the spear because its a lot more Accurate unless your using a woomera and also i think the spear would do more damage
I think a spear Because it has a sharp end and would be easy to hunt with 🙂 ✨⭐️✨⭐️✨⭐️✨⭐️✨⭐️✨⭐️✨⭐️
this is easy
Hi Viswa, if you find these tasks easy, we encourage you to do the challenge which is to find out more about Aboriginal Culture by visiting https://www.natgeokids.com/au/discover/history/general-history/aboriginal-australian-culture/. I’ll let Lee know, so you can have a chat with him about what you found out in the challenge task!
i think it’s spear because it has a pointy end
I think that the woomera was the best tool because it can be used as a knife chisel and digging and a spear throwing device
interesting thoughts Fraser. 🙂
i think the spear because it has a long and sharp stone head that could kill an Animal Easily
i think its the spear bc it has a pointy edge and that could scare their opponets too
I think it is the spear because it is light and quick and it can have detachable heads to use when you are closer and for digging and it is sharper
