Summary

This year I have learned many things like simple machines and electricity. I learned all the math about levers and the basics to electricity. My favorite project was when we made truss bridges because it seemed very amazing to me. I loved tech. It was very helpful with videos explaining everything we learned.

Gears

This week, we have been learning about gears. Gears are basically wheel and axles but they have teeth. You can find a gear in a bike. There are two different types of gears, diver and driven.
