This week we are rushing our project about Led lights and how to make your own, this project is very hard and we only have the tiniest amount of time to finish it. We are returning our tech bags on Monday or Tuesday. I think it is pretty sad that we will be moving to a new quarterly soon because Technology was a really fun thing to learn. I never though that we would be learning about atoms or electricity or anything like that. Overall, technology is a great quarterly in my opinion

I think that this week was pretty awesome, we learned about electroscopes. We learned about how that the static, brings other things attracted to it. And that was the whole point of the electroscope. You needed wool or your hair, which I thought was pretty funny for the project and it would make your hair all frizzy.

This week in technology class I made a cam and started making my crank. the cam was pretty challenging because it took a while to make, also some of the folds were a little annoying to do with your fingers. For the crank I have started by cutting out every part I need for the project. We use resources such as glue scissors and a ruler. In conclusion I think the project was pretty fun and a tiny bit challenging.

This week was pretty awesome. I have completed 2 projects in one week. One of them being the truss experiment, where we build a cube and test the structural strength. Also the other project being, building a catapult. Building a catapult was pretty hard, but once I got the hang of it, it was pretty fun. In conclusion I had a last of fun this week

Today’s lesson was super fun and cool because we got to learn about the next project that were doing this week. the reason why it was so awesome over zoom today, is because the teacher would make a cube out of little baby carrots and toothpicks. We were trying to see how many books it could hold up for its shape. I personally thought around 2, but when it went to 4 I was very surprised. to be honest I had no idea that it could hold that many. In conclusion though I think that making the triangle truss in the middle of the cube would of definitely held more books thank just 4.

Technology post #2

Right now in Technology I am super interested in the I beam project we are doing. We are also learning about trusses. The reason why I am interested in the I beam project is because it is so cool how if you just design something the right way it could hold up way more than just brute strength could. I also just recently learnt that triangles are one of the strongest shapes when building structures. For example, a lot of heavy bridges need support so you can just look at a picture and see that there are many triangle outlines.

Technology week 1

This week was pretty cool. We started learning about adhesives and glue, since we are going to be using a lot of glue in technology class. One pretty awesome thing we learnt about is the history of glue, and we also learnt about the titanic. Also the main point about the lesson was about brittleness, toughness and ductility. Ductility is if the object can bend and stretch, toughness is how much stress it can take, and finally brittleness is how fragile it can be or if it breaks easily.

Comp Tech: Final Project

Basically on my sheet in the new column I created for the totals. It shows the sum of the Democratic votes and the RepResentative votes. This was challenging because I had to type the formula into the bar that calculated the sum. I also re arranged the years to go from youngest to oldest and the total votes to go from smallest to largest. To summarize I had one problem with the color of the font but it got fixed.

Week of 11/2

To summarize how I created this chart I just decided to add some cells together for a function, I chose the NBA image because I like basketball. Also I chose common sports so a lot of people would be included in the wellness log. For one of my formulas what I did first was select the cells, and then at the bottom of the sheet on my iPad it had a list of options, so I chose sum for the totals. A spreadsheet like this could be useful for charting the date from a whole week for something like Hedge-funding and business wise Topics.
