The two subjects that I had where What is the history behind graffiti and how to learn to do graffiti and out of those two I got one done. Right now I am starting to do my second one and it is going well so far. I also started my slide show and getting images. I had to write a sketch one what  I am going to paint on the wall and I thought and thought and then I wanted to write my name out with a paw print in it to represent my dog that passed away I wanted to have him in my peace. I have started my interview questions and can’t wait to start to do them. I can’t wait to do more!

Passion project #1

Recently my class started passion project and since we got assigned the project I have made so much progress. The passion that would be studying is graffiti. The way I will begin to do my project I will be starting to research my first topic witch would be the history behind graffiti witch is very fun to look back into the past and see what the Romans did I would also be looking for great articles that would proved me with great information also YouTube videos. The research that I have done has been a lot for example I have been using a a website also I used a YouTube video. The topic that I am doing is the history behind graffiti and how learn to do graffiti. I also I have been doing my guiding questions they are how did graffiti begin and who where the first graffiti artists. The resources that I have been using is a articles and a YouTube video. What will I create will be a huge painting on a wall somewhere. The why that would work is I am going to be painting something personal to me and creating it to a master piece.The way I am going to share is is by having a slide show that would proved information on graffiti it will also have a interview with my dad because he is a graffiti artist and has lots and lots of experience for what I am doing. I can’t wait to do more on my project!

Refugee #1

Today in class we read three chapters about each of the charters. All three of the charters moved away the reasons are, Josef left because his family is Jewish and the Nazi are attacking them and there family doesn’t want to be next, Isabel left because of her father he started a riot and was going to go to jail for the rest of his life, Mohmoud left because of dictators and what they where doing to there house and family.

 

 

Refugee #2

In the story refugee there is a lot of bad things happening to Josef,Isabel,Mahmound. The author wanted to alternate the tree stories because they wanted to show how they where connected and wants the reader to realize all the stories connect in the beginning.

Rube Glodberg #6

Today was the last day to work and let me tell you is was the most stressful project I have ever done. My team and I stared to make sure that all of are ramps and bored are all secured. We stared to put all of the pieces we all on the bored. Then we tested it and it didn’t work so we had to  figure out ways that we can make it better so we called one of the parents for a minute or two to help. It took 64 try’s till we got the treat to go into the bowl. The first thing we noticed on the project that was not working it the pulley had to be  adjusted in a way that I won’t make the marble got off our board after we made a lot of changes and it was so stressful thing but after all of the hard work we  finally made it in. My team and I later had to make a video at school when we finished the video we where so glad to be done. I loved this project and it was such a good experience!!

This our video! come and check it out.

Rube Goldberg #5

Today me and my group work really hard but we made a lot of progress. Today we set up the ramp and put are first wood boards, after that are group started to us the material that are around us like we used a egg that was fake and we took apart a a doll bed for the wood  boreds. My team and I started to test out what we build slowly and slowly. We figured out that the peg bored that we used did not have a lot of room so we had to strategize ways that everything can fit. When we did most of are sketch  On the peg bored so we decided that we test what we had so far and it worked!! I was really happy that we had came all this way in one day.

Breakout – Summary

Breakout is about how two dangerous men broke out of a high security prison!😮 The class of seventh grade is doing a project and they are documenting every thing that happens. They are trying to fund out where they would go?All day the girls/boys are sitting around there house scared and anxious to see what will happen!

Rube Goldberg #3

Today me and my group made another plan and got so much work done. We where so worried that we where behind in the building process so we got together.The first thing we did was take apart a toy car ramp to make a ramp, I know it sounds funny but trust me it will be great. My team and I had to figure out strategies because it was a little to heavy, then we came to conclusion the it was to heavy to hold with a glue gun so we took a peg bored hook to hold some of it up but the top of the ramp came down so we put a paper towel roles to hold it up. I think that this time we got a lot done and I hope to get more done next plans we make!

♻ Recycling ♻

Ms Boyer had one of her friends come in, her name is Monica. Monica studding design and engineering. Monica’s lesson today with us was about recycling and how we can make more use out of things, such as tinfoil,water bottles. I learned that when you put something to go to the recycling center they melt it first, I thought that was insane because that can take longer to devolve. It was amazing that something like tinfoil can be made into you own creation for example I made a bow tie, it was really a cool experience. I got to know things that I never know that was true. This is the packet that we did, it was a true learning  experience
