Here is my reflection on Innovation Day
We were asked to make a space that used renewable energy sources. We choose to use hydro electricity. We thought at the beginning we wanted to make a water wheel that could power something. We were scrambling for days trying to find a good model to make. Finally we settled on a good model. But we had to order things from India. our original model was going to be a DC motor attached to a water wheel. Then we wanted to add a motion sensor to sense when the water wheel was moving and that would turn on a light. but we didn鈥檛 have the right materials so we had to completely restart so we settled on this water-powered ferris wheel. The material we used was wood, DC motor(x2), computer fan, and a big plastic gallon bottle. I feel that our teamwork could have been better because my team ran to some problems that they were unable to resolve and needed my support. So they came up with the idea to make a ferris wheel. I was given an extension to work on my original idea.聽 I think I should have asked for help the day before the presentation. This is the lesson I have learned for next time. I think I聽 have learned lots of new ideas such as volts and watts and how to improvise when things don鈥檛 go to plan!
ICE CREAM TIME!!!
Hello world scales here,a few days ago we made ice cream as our science experiment!
here is what you need
What you need 馃槢
Ice
Salt
CREAM MILK
vanilla/cocoa
Spoon
SUGAR
Ziploc small
Ziploc large
Process 馃槢
Take a ziploc small and fill it with CREAM MILK,then take a spoon of SUGARY SUGAR
And put in the baggie,take big zippy lock and take ice to put inside,then sprinkle salt to keep ice cold longer,shake for 7-10 mins and take SPOON 聽AND EAT ICE CWEAM!!!!!!!
The reason we did all of this ice cweam extravaganza was because we were studying how at certain tempertures and the right tools YOU, YES YOU, can turn a liquid into a solid! (and eat ice cweam while doing it)
Bye!
