3D printing
In technology were doing 3D printing this year. 3D printing is very cool, you get to design anything you want. It is a very long process on how it works. First, you have to design what your building on the computer. Then you print it to the 3D printer. There is a tool on a 3D printer that allows you to print whatever you want to print. When it prints it’s really cool and I would definitely recommend trying it out.
Technology
In technology for this year we have been learning about timber and harvesting. We have been learning about this topic from neapods, and we have been watching some videos about timber and harvestng. Overall i have been very interested about timber and harvesting and i would enjoy to learn about it more.
Building
Last year, we had to make a marble run for Science class. We had to use cardboard and other items to make the marble run for one minute. I worked for so long and couldn’t get it to run for more than 20 seconds. Eventually the teacher realized that it would be impossible to have it run for a minute so she lowered the time the day before the project was due. The project was frustrating but it was also fun when I finally timed the marble run and got to 35 seconds. In general, I do not love to build things. I did not like legos when I was younger. It is very challenging for me.
Catapult
For technology We. Made a catapult at first I didn’t have the right materials to do it when I got marshmallows as the base It was a lot easier i made a good catapult.
Cube
For technology we did a fab maker studio project at first I struggled a lot but thenI figured out how to do it once I figure out how to do it it was easy I printed out paper and I made a cube.
English storyboard
My story board has nine pictures. The first one is me on a dog walk. I included it because i have been taking more dog walks because I have more time. The second picture is my dad doing a puzzle. In the beginning of quarantine a lot of people were doing puzzles. We all started it and only my dad kept doing it. The third picture is me seeing my friend for the first time during quarantine. It was raining and freezing. We had to be outside. The next picture is my friends birthday. We all went to see him in his front yard. The next picture is me playing basketball with my brother which we have been doing a lot. The next picture is a water slide that my parents bought for the pool. It was fun while it lasted but it broke.l. I was reallly excited when my pool opened. The next picture is of my mom on Mother’s Day wearing a mask because she was making food for her parents. The last picture is another dog walk by duck pond. The words that come to my mind when i see these pictures are friends and family.
Paragraph
After I finished the book I had to write a paragraph the paragraph was pretty easy because i knew what to right cause I just finished the book so i had everything fresh in my brain. The paragraph was hard but I did it.
Fantasy unit
I like fantasy books because there are a Lot of imagination and fake stuff. I like how the fantasy books are very creative. For this fantasy unit I’m going to be reading divergent.
Truss
For our second project for technology were going to make a cube out of toothpicks and baby carrots I enjoyed the first project so I am excited for this one I think this one will be a lot easier than the first one.
I beam
For a technology project you were supposed to make an I beam and a regular beam. It took a very long time to make them. When we finished we tested them Out by putting books on them and seeing what one was sturdier. I thought the i beam was going to be sturdier and it was. i think it was sturdier because it was bigger and heavier. overall the project was very fun.
