In class we are making automatas. We started with a cardboard box which we sawed. Then after watching a video, we made triangles to hold the box in place. We poked a stick through the box as an axle. After putting on the sticks, we measured and cut out circles, using a compass and sawing machine. Finally we put the circles on the axle and it worked! Tomorrow I plan to add pictures of Captain Hook and the Tic-Toc-Croc to mine, which will complete my automata.

In class Mr. Calvert showed a video of all different types of cool automatas:
One of the ones was a caterpillar with all the different parts of its body moving.
Another one showed a man with a knife, which he sliced his leg with, this producing fake blood.
Another interesting looking one showed two people at dinner. Outside there is creepy looking man looking at them. The radio is on, the dog jumps, and a man kicks the dog.
Also there was one of man swimming. It was really cool because the man moved his arms, his legs, and his head was moving from side to side.
