Edit Edit Edit!! #6

When I started to edit it looked so hard. But, a few minutes later my sister helped me. She gave me some tips on how to edit well and make it overall “Clean.” About 20 minutes later I was on my own. I decided to do a little today because it was getting late.

The next day was Sunday. I relaxed and played video games. It was 7:00 pm and that’s when it hit me hard in the head. I had completely forgot and I only got to cut some clips, and put music, and make a clip shorter. Monday was very progressive and I got a lot done. Tuesday I finished it Clean smooth and perfect.

That’s my Rube Goldberg experience.

It Worked! #5

I rolled the marble, it triggered all the traps, then, POP! When the machine worked I wanted to scream but I am not supposed to because part of script was to act casual. So I just felt excited inside. It felt good to actually finish. We were so happy! We finished right on time to. My partner had to go somewhere.

So… they dropped me off and I told my parents. They told me to do some editing. But first, I was going to show everyone the success! I know the video I showed, My family, My cousins (all of them), and my friends. Some people were on there 30th try! It was a great success!

Next… the editing.

Building #4

When I got into my group for Rube Goldberg We thought of what should we do? We finally settled on simply pouring water into a cup. It was harder than we thought. How would it work? What should we use? We did not know so then one day my partner came up to me and said, “what if we pop a balloon?” I agreed and we planed our next meet.

We built everything but then we realized that it was only 5 steps. So we changed some stuff then we had 7. We had been wanting to use a pulley so we used it and that made 8 steps. We were running out of time. I was sick for a long time so we did not get to meet a lot. So the last meet we had we got right down to business. We recorded and time after time it would fail.

But, we were not ready to give up!

Reflection On 5th Grade So Far

The firs trimester of 5th grade ended. I had a pretty shaky start. It was rough to get back to school. But it was ok in the end. It was really fun! Especially the field trips. They where awesome! My personal favorite was the board of legislators trip. We got to debate where real legislators would debate and sit where they would sit. Looking forward for next trimester.

Spring Break!

I am so exited that spring break is almost here I will maybe travel to California or Chicago for pass over. Or maybe stay home and play roblox. Or pokemon showdown. I will really love to go to my relitives for pass over. I want to see my cousins too. it’s been forever. Passover is one of the best holidays in my opinion because you spend time with family and friends. Also I would never wake up to go to school because I will be playing on the computer.

My Colonial Book Reflection

I thought writing a colonial book was fantastic. My favorite part was putting in pictures that fit the text. But still I loved the rest.

When we got to share our books, I was astounded on how everyone did. That was one of the best projects ever! The Experience was great.

I thought finding the facts and stuff like that was hard. I read all kinds of books. But most of them are facts about the wrong time period.
