I think our Rube Goldberg is looking good. Everything is working the way it is supposed to be working. I am concerned about the car hitting the tower. It might not give enough power to shake it hard enough. I am also concerned about the Rummy pieces.

Rube Goldberg #2
Our second time we met we got the first half done. The second part was the marble tracks. It was hard setting it up. At first we couldn’t get the marble to go all the way to the end of the marble track. We tried and tried. We tilted it down more, we put more blocks under it to make it higher. We finally did the right thing to make the marble go all the way to the end.
Rube Goldberg #1
I think that we are of to a good start. We started by making a drawing on google drawings. We planned that the base will be the ping pong table. We started the beginning. It starts with domino’s. I was sleeping so i couldn’t help. One little part in the beginning didn’t work then we worked it out. One part we can’t figure out what to put there so we can knock it over.
Debate Reflection
Ian
Extreme sports
Jonny and I thought that extreme sports are worth the risk while Ty and Jordan thought that the extreme sports are not worth the risk. We had a difficult time finding evidence for our reasons. We had all helped each other find reasons and evidence. I enjoyed my topic. I enjoyed my topic because I love sports. Overall I thought my groups second debate was better than our first debate.
Important news 2015
I think that the Eiffel tower will have the most lasting effect on the world. I think this because it was a start to a big terrorist group. That will be known as one of the biggest terrorist attack. That is why I think this is the most important article.
Video conversation with NASA
We talked with Rachel Power. She told us about rockets and how they are made. She told us about which rockets were popular. She showed us videos of test landings.
Rocketry presentation reflection
I thought our presentation went well. I was not nervous before the presentation. I was excited to get it over with. When it was my turn to say my slide I tried to speak as fast as I can. Sometimes our group argued over who gets which slide. We also argued on what we were writing on each slide and pictures.
Non fiction feature article
My non fiction article is about the New York Rangers. I wrote about there best players, there rivals, there stats, there achievements, and there captains. My dad knows a lot about the Rangers so I thought that I could use him as a source. My dad helped me take notes and that was the first thing I did. Then I put the notes into different categories and chose the best categories and made it into a non-fiction article.
