This week I worked on building a catapult. Building a catapult was not hard there are two different catapults and i built the mangonel catapult and it was very easy. I also built a game so that I could use the catapult was a marble. My game was a box on my wall and there was three openings so that the slides were connected to the box. On top on was three holes and I put three cut open at the bottom cups in to the top of the box. At the bottom of the box there was the slides. So when I use my catapult the marble flings into one of the cups falling onto one of the slides. I recorded it on Flipgrid and the marble just kept on missing the box That was one of my difficulties. It missed like 10 times and it finally got into one of the cups down onto the slide going into one of the cups on the floor and that was my success. Overall I think this project was really fun.
Tech week 2
This week I worked on my truss project. I had some difficulty’s with building it because when I was done with project it collapse and I had to redo it . The way i did my truss was I did two boxes connected to each other and two other boxes to connected to the bottom boxes. So I did that the first time and it collapsed and i did it another time but I put a toothpick diagonal on the top boxes. When I put the books on it was stronger and held 3 books. So my difficulty was that my truss collapsed in the first round. And then the second round my success was that my project held three books.
Tech week #1
this week we I built a ibeam and a custom beam. My ibeam and my custom beam held a lot of things. My ibeam held 27 things and my custom beam held 30 things. So I think my project was a big success and i thing that the beams were very strong.

Today our manipulated stronk it was 4 inches. The leaves started to crumbly.the flowers also got smaller.my hypothesis is if you put more it will get to full.the control was 4 in a half inches. There was 6 seed pads. The leaves started to get white. Today our plant was 4 inches the manipulated was 5 inches. For the control the flowers were really growing.there was a few buds. For the manipulated the flowers were also really growing . there were no buds at all.

Plant Blog Post 1
In class we are studying about plants. Our experiment is adding 5 drops of water. I am in group E. The people in my group are Isaac, Devam, and myself. Today I observed the plants and our plant is 4 inches tall. For the control and manipulated plant is 4 inches also. I notice that our leaves are starting to get bigger. I am also noticing that there are flowers forming. Every day our plants are starting to get taller. My group works very good because we always follow the rules. Today my plant was 4 inches. The flowers were fully growing. The plant were really rubbery.
Things work really good on my group. Adding 5 drops is really good. I like adding 5 drops of water my is the tallest . Today we saw that our flowers were growing. Our plant was still 4 inches.
Technology is
Technology is something that solves a problem and makes life easier.
A glue stick is technology because it helps you. I think the glue stick solves problems because you don’t have to use a messy glue. It makes life better because if you use liquid glue your not in control of it. My object improves on liquid glue.
Expert Book – All About Dogs
I wrote a book about dogs. I chose this topic because I like dogs. I enjoyed writing about dogs from personal experience. I found this project challenging and learned so much about creating an expert book. I hope you like my book and learn lots about dogs!
