This is my first blog reflection of my Rube Goldberg machine project in Ms. Edwards’ fifth grade class. I will make five more blog reflections between now and April 19, when the project is due. We are just beginning the project. My partner Vrinda Pareek and I have been making sketches about what our machine should be like. If you don’t know, a Rube Goldberg machine is a chain reaction of objects that performers a simple task like blowing a bubble or flipping a paper. Not just yet will we tell you our idea, but stay tuned for more blog reflections. Here is a quick teaser of some of the objects that will be used: Toy cars and trucks, marbles and Domino’s. Of course there will be more objects used, but those are a few. Keep updated on more news by visiting my blog again soon!
I liked how you described what a Rube Goldberg was, in case the reader did not know what that was. You wrote a good introduction to you Rube Goldberg machine. I also think that your reflections are professional like your last sentence! That’s really spectacular.
