Technology – Periodic Table

In class we have learned about the periodic table of elements. We have also learned about electrons, neutrons and protons. Protons are positive, neutrons are neutral and electrons are negative. The number of protons and neutrons determine its electrical charge. We also learned that, as electrons move, protons stay in place. We also used electroscopes which work because of static energy. As we rub the wool on pvc pipes we create static energy. That energy attracts the electrons and with out the electrons, the protons repel and move apart.

 

Technology – Breakout

In technology we played a game called breakout. It was almost like escape the room, but you were trying to unlock a box. It was very interesting and all the clues had things to do with the stuff we learned that week so, when we found a clue, it was easier to decipher than if it were a few weeks later. I was definitely a challenge and we had to use both ur clues. I also think it was hard because there were some things in the room that we thought were clues but they weren’t. I think it was a fun challenge and lesson.
