My teacher assigned Rube Goldberg on January 28. Once my teacher assigned this project, I was so excited because I remember seeing my siblings do it and it looked like a lot of fun. After the project was assigned, I learned that Rube Goldberg was a man who worked as a cartoonist, engineer, inventor, sculpture, and author. Rube Goldberg was mostly known for performing simple tasks and making cartoons. He was born of July 4, 1883 and died on December 7, 1970. Once the project was assigned, my teacher showed the class some videos of students trying Rube Goldberg from previous years. What I learned from those videos is that Rube Goldberg takes many attempts and you can’t rush it.
