Finally, after a long Rube Goldberg project, I was aroused to see the news of a new project. At that moment I got to work did my question and then got to do the interview.

During the weekend I thought of questions. I took a lot of the questions from the things I need to know and made them more friendly so that they would say more when I would ask them. Still, I needed more so I watched some former kid’s videos and thought about what questions gave them this information.

Finally 10 minutes before the interview I called her on face time. We talked and cathed up and I told her the ground rules. Be honest, and feel free to fully open up and give it as a story. She offered to help she even got some questions from her co-worker whos a 3rd-grade teacher. I kindly refused because that would take me over my limit and at five we started. To my surprise she opened up so much, telling me everything. I even found myself asking follow-up questions. I felt very satisfied with what I got and that I could make an amazing story.

However, it was my grandmother and I have known her since the day I was born I learned so much more about her than I have ever had.

 

Rube Goldberg Blog Post 2

Finally, after weeks of building and filming it was done, my Rube Goldberg machine. Let me take you to the beginning. I started with a sketch of my idea right after I got to work. I worked on it for two and a half hours then after all the extra materials were put away, I looked over my project with a smile all over my face.

I started to film. One try went past, then two, and three. Finally, at try 11 it worked. Yes! I yelled and danced across the room I’ve done it.

Know after a one-week break from school and a few days of not worrying about it on homework I realized it was time to start making the video.

It took me a night of grinding then finally after two hours I was done. Looking at my video I was so happy. Finally, I thought, I don’t have to bite my nails and worry about doing this. If I need to be totally honest I love it but, my only change would be there are no due dates.

Cell phone debates

I had so much fun doing debates mostly because we could argue which I was never asked to do but, I would definitely take an offer to. We started no counter but, just developing our starting evidence I remember that I would look through countless amounts of magazines to see if I could find quotes and stats. eventually after having pages full of reason, and evidence we started to build up. I remember looking down at the doc and looking at how our paragraphs were bigger which gave me a shock of relief. And then came the counter-argument and I shined I made my counter painful destroying all their evidence they’ve built up. after countless days of change and revision, I was ready to practice. we practice for over 3 days. Know finally we were ready for the presentation When it was my turn I talked loud and clear finally we finished but, in a way while walking back I’m going to miss standing up there arguing what should be the law mostly I felt like a lawyer and my defendant was my claim and I was telling the audience ho’s the jury what they should vote for. Overall I had  an amazing time and would love to do this again
