Last week we learned about the periodic table and how on the top right of the element there is a number and that number is how man protons are in the element. On Friday 22, it was human rights day, human rights day is were we celebrate having are human rights.  On human rights day somebody came to talk to us about it. This person created the donation company called pajama program. The pajama program donates pajamas to kids who are less fortunate then us and do not have pajamas. They also donate to kids who do not have books and give them books.

For this week we had to do the four questions my answers were,

I will learn how to make a baseball.I want to learn to make because it would be cool to be able to use my own baseball.I will learn to make by taking apart a baseball and measuring the leather. I will then make my own baseball with the measurements I have taken.Success to me will look like a baseball that is able to be thrown and hit. I am going to have to make a prototype first.

For my passion project #1 my idea is to try to make a baseball from scratch. I got this idea because baseball is my sport and i pretty much am going to measure the lengths and stuff of a baseball and try to make it from that. I think it will be a cool idea to build a baseball and use it.

Overall i thought capstone was really fun and one of the best projects i ever had and if you ever have the chance in school you should defenetly do one. This year at heatchote was one of the best years i have had.

When I was working on my final project it was not that hard because all I had to do was memorize it and memorizing. Memorizing is not hard for me because in fourth grade I had to memorize a toy theatre script. This is what my script looks like.

 

Have you ever you imagined yourself  in an alternate dimension? With Virtual Reality, otherwise known as VR, people can do almost anything. Today, I am going to talk about the many uses of VR.

VR has other uses than just gaming. The other main uses are military, sports/fitness, mental health, medical training, and education.

VR has changed fitness because it gives people an option other than going to the gym. There are games like Box VR, Knockout League and more. Going to the gym is still better but playing Virtual Reality is more fun.

Medical and dental students will be able to train while they are in VR. For example they could perform a surgery or pulling out a tooth. This is good because if they mess up it, will not harm anybody. They are also able to practice as long as they want to.

Students can be taken on virtual field trips. For example, with VR, students can take tours of the solar system and go back in time to different eras. The subjects VR help most in are Science Social Studies History

The military in the U.K. and the U.S. use VR in army navy and airforce. The U.K. and the U.S. have both started using virtual reality in their training as it allows them to be able to train in different situations like being attacked by other people in a war, or flying an airplane, or even throwing a bomb.

Students with special needs, such as autism, are also using VR technology. A company called Floreo has developed virtual reality scenarios that allow children to learn and practice skills such as pointing, making eye contact, and building social connections. Parents can also follow along and interact by using a linked table. This helps students with their social skills.

It has also been used to treat anxiety, phobias, and depression. Virtual reality technology can provide a safe area for patients to come into contact with things they fear, while staying in a safe environment because they can’t get hurt in VR.

VR helps the viewer’s experience because they can watch the game they want to watch on the headset. This is helpful because if you did not get a ticket to the game you want to watch you can just watch it from your headset, it is also much cheaper then buying a ticket to a game.

For my site visit I went to the Microsoft Store and there they had VR and AR headsets.

Beat Saber is another fitness game and I played it. While I was playing Beat Saber, I started to get tired. It was a really fun and I think you should give it a try.

In conclusion, VR is more than just gaming. VR is an inexpensive way to virtually travel to places that people are unable to visit. Doctors can train for surgery while using VR. Mentally ill people can use VR to calm them down. Military and educators can train soldiers and students with VR. Using VR is a great way to exercise too! I hope that many of you will use VR more often because VR has so many options!

That made it a lot easier because if one of the answers was messed up i could go back and look at the recording and see what the real answer was. When i was doing my interview i had to do a lot of typing and if you don’t believe me look down there.

When I was doing my interview it went all good into the end i had all the questions done but then i go to see my recording it overlapped.  Oh Oh i’m going to have to do it again. But this time i am going to do it with two phones so if one gets messed up i have a backup.

When I was first figuring out who i was going to interview i had no clue who to interview. I first asked my parents if they new anybody in are family who was a immigrant but nobody in are family was a immigrant. Then i asked my mom if she new anybody and she thankfully knows a lot of people so i ended up picking my moms friend yelena granovsky. She is a immigrant from russia.  

Overall it thought Rube Goldberg was fun and it took a lot of effort. When we were watching the video i thought it was cool how we got to see all the progress we made during the unit. I also thought it was fun to work with my friends because for a lot of other things we get a signed a partner. 

At some times it was annoying because we did not always agree on everything. For example when we were deciding on what to make are Rube Goldberg do it was hard because we all had so many ideas.
