Hello to people who are reading my blog! This week’s title is different than the usual blog posts’ titles, as you may have noticed from reading my previous ones. Well…. I did that on purpose. Let me tell you why.
THIS WEEK IS THE LAST WEEK OF TECHNOLOGY THIS QUARTER!!!!!!!
When I heard this, my mind was like “WHHHHATTT?”, though some other people may disagree and be like “YAYY! FREEDOM!”
I am very dejected because it was really thrilling and elating, learning and participating in this class. ( Though I also always looked forward to looking for my friends who took this class after me A BIT MORE THAN PARTICPATING?!…)
I think most of my classmates will agree with me, that this quarterly was one of the best quaterly (or ies? I know it has to be plural, but I’m unconfident…)this year.
This week, we did this project Mr. Calvert said none of his students have done beforeee! It was making a mechanical light switch that you put on your lightswitch!!! (Sounds a bit confusing, right? Sorry for not being able to explain it better!)
It has been so exiting coloring and everything so far this week, though it has been a bit annoying simultaneously because the oil marker’s paint has been getting on my fingers A LOT. Other than that, it is very fun.
Here are the things I’ve done so far…..
1. I colored the parts that Mr. Calvert cutted out ( I believe..) with 3 colors of oil markers (light blue, white, and silver).
2. Then, I waxed the gears with some crayons.
3.Next, I started to build all the parts together, which was fascinating, but hurting… I accidentally hit my finger with the hammer today… 🙁 🙁
Well… I guess these 3 steps are the only ones I have accomplished so far!
I will post the picture of the finished product on Friday, so until then, bye!
