We also learned how to blow up the batteries but that has not happened so far in our class. Doing these practices we… Read more Technology #6
Today in class we started to learn about cricut’s and batteries. We used a multimeter to track the speed of the electrons going through the cricut. We also learned why batteries die and that different batteries with different speeds. We are also continuing to learn about the periodic table and how they created atoms. We… Read more Technology #5
Today in class we started to learn about measurements and using rulers. We already learned about measurements in science but we learned the metric system. In technology we will be using the customary system. We have a packet we have to do which involves measuring with rulers. When we completed the packet I saw I… Read more Technology #4
