Is it worth it to explore extreme environments? I think it is. A television show I once saw about Mars said that scientists were discovering things on Mars that are similar to things on Earth. Also in the movie The Martian it showed a man surviving on Mars. It looked scary but also it looked… Read more Are we wasting our money?
Rube Goldberg was really fun! When we were making the design it was hard. We weren’t agreeing on what to do and some stuff was impossible. Also we didn’t have the right materials so it was hard. Then we finally agreed on a design that could work. It started with scoring a goal then the… Read more Rube Goldberg Overall

1/28/18 We started to try our Rube Goldberg on 1/28/18. We didn’t have to many tries that day and they didn’t work to well. The ball rolled down the ramp and hit the bowling pins but they wouldn’t all fall down correctly. Then Erik had a violin lesson so he had to leave and come… Read more Rube Goldberg Tries
Today was another unsuccessful day. Asher and Chase are both sick so they weren’t there. Also our camera wouldn’t stay on the stand so I couldn’t take pictures. Then our Istop program stopped working. Today was worst then yesterday. I decided to help Arav because he was also alone. We got 3 seconds done then… Read more Stop Motion Day 2 Things Got Worse 🙁
Today was not the best. Our pizza bow wasn’t fully painted and we had to paint. That took up time and I didn’t dry in time. We got nothing done and it was annoying. We couldn’t start or even get 1 photo done. We are kind of behind but think we can get a lot… Read more Stop Motion
Our first design didn’t really work so we decided to change it. It still starts with scoring a goal. But the ball now hits bowling pins. The bowling pins fall down and hit dominos. This is a little annoying because the pins are hard to curve. So I decided I would make it go straight… Read more Rube Goldberg 4 Design 2
A couple of days ago Erik came to my house and we started to set up our Rube Goldburg. We started by getting a cardboard box and cutting it. We made our ramp and tested it. I took a shot and it fell off the side. We tried a couple more times and it kept… Read more Rube Goldberg 3 Starting to build
Erik and I started our first design. It took us a while to think everything through but then we got it. It started with one of us scoring a goal in the football table then the ball goes down a cardboard ramp. Then the ball hits some dominos which hit a car with a dish… Read more Rube Godldburg 2 First Design
A Rube Godberg is when you do a simple task but with a bunch of steps. Like make dominos hit a ball which hits bowling pins. It is pretty much a chain reaction to do a simple task. We started to talk about Rube Goldbergs in class. Then we chose our partners. I was partners… Read more Rube Goldburg 1
