For this experience we had to create paper using recycled paper. The process of creating this paper was that, we first had to shred, and rip up some paper, and then we put it into a blender with some water in it. After that we put our mixture into a trey that was filled with water. Then we used another mini trey with mesh inside of it to lift up all of the particles that we had in the water, and then we had to strain out all of the water to make the paper dry. After this was competed we repeatedly dry of the paper with a damp rag, and a dry rag. Then once we pushed the water out of the paper, we then placed our paper to sit, and air dry. I think that chemistry can relate with creating this paper because its making a physical change with the paper, and I think that paper creating could be an art form because you can add your own colors into the new paper that your making.

For this assignment I made a painting using the Chinese broken brush technique, and instead of using regular paint we used ink instead. We created the painting using the techniques we learned from a edpuzzle, and we used different techniques like dabbing the brush on the paper, and instead of dipping your brush in the ink again, you just dip the brush in some water, and start painting again.

For this assignment I learned how to weave on a loom using a technique with a cardboard with small cuts, and then I used yarn to slide it into the cuts in the cardboard, after that I used a pencil to left up every other white yarn line to wave the blue yarn through the other white yarn lines. Then you would just keep repeating this process.

For this assignment we had to use different colors, and create a weaving pattern with paper, and I completed the weaving design on the left, and my partner created the weave design on the right. To make this weaving design we had to fold the paper and cut it, but you wouldn't cut it fully through. Then you would cut different strands off paper, and you would weave the strands of paper through the lines that you cut. We were making these weaving designs to represent covalent and ionic bonding based on their colors. We did covalent bonds because one of the green strands that we made go through both of the designs that we created. This work can combine weaving with bonding by the different strands in the design that we have are combining the two different designs, and a way that can show how they bond is because of the different colors that we used to make the weaves, and how one of the strands go through both of the designs.
ChemVAS PERIODIC Table Element Art
I think that I was able to combine STEAM into this project by using art mostly. I learned what some of the elements on the periodic table are used for. I was creative by adding different fonts to the way I was writing my letters, and numbers. My element art looks like the Old English font, and I also created a Bohr Diagram model electron configuration on my element, and I think that the art can show a lot of value. I think that the most important principle of design in my artwork is Unity because when I was creating my letters, and numbers I wanted to make them look like they were all the same font.
Chemistry
I think that cultural and historical context have shaped scientific discoveries in making the periodic table by people like Dimitri Mendeleev, Antoine Lavoisier, and john Dalton all being white Europeans. I think that if African Americans were the ones to discover the periodic table, I think that most people wouldn't believe them. I also believe that even if they did discover the periodic table then some other people would've taken the credit for what they discovered. Their were many more different chemist that were part of the discovery too like Johann Dobereiner, and he was a German chemist that attempted to sort the elements into groups of three. Another chemist that I didn't explain was John Newlands, and he was also white and European, but he introduced his law of octaves.
To traverse your path you have to first know how to go forward, backwards, left, and right. After you know how to do that you need to know how to stop your robot. So the way that I would code my path is by having my robot go forward, and then I would tell the robot to stop, and turn to whatever direction, for example if the robot would need to go right, I would tell the robot to go forward, then stop, and then turn the power to turn a certain degree, like 180. then I would keep doing this for the other paths until I make it to the finish point. I would be able to make the robot turn a certain degree by turning a certain wheel, for example if I wanted to go left I would stop the left wheel, and I would tell the right wheel to turn clockwise. If I wanted to go straight I would have to tell either the left wheel or the right wheel to turn clockwise or counter clockwise, and vise versa.

For this part of the skit we finished scene 1, and this scene was about the kids playing tag, and then the kids got curious, so they decided to ask their grandfather about how they got their riches, and then the grandfather starts the story.

Today for class we filmed another part of our skit, and we were still filming scene 2, but this time we filmed our ritual dance part, and this scene part was to represent Ancient China doing their rituals for their different gods.

Today in class we decided to do scene 2, instead of scene 1 because we wanted to do the harder stuff today. For the skit we filmed the father and son death scene, but we couldn't finish the rest because we ran out of time.
In todays class some people came to our class to help us with our acting skills. One off the things that we did is that we would both have a subject and then two people would volunteer, and those two people would have to come up with the same word. Another thing that we did was reenact a little part of our skit in front of ou classmates.
Some different cultures that use Mandalas are Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Shinto. Mandala is also know to be a form of art therapy for some people. Mandalas are a spiritual and ritual symbol of Buddhism that originated near the first century BCE, but it first appeared in India. The Mandala is used to help transform ordinary minds into enlighten ones, and it can also help with meditation, representation, and worship. Well people used it for different things, for example the Aztecs used it to tell time, Native American cultures celebrated Mandalas, because they believe that the round shape represented the circle of life, and they use them for ceremonies, and rituals. Some principles of design that I can see is pattern, unity, rhythm, movement, repetition, balance and variety.
I think that physics and my ultrasonic sensor have a connection by the usage of sound waves to detect near by objects, and the distance from where the objects stand. An ultrasound is know to be a high-pitched sound wave whose frequency surpasses the audible range for a human. I think that a sensor can be used to detect the different objects. The audible hearing range for a human is 20Hz and 20,000Hz, and anything above this is a ultrasound. Hardware to me can be represented as things like a PC, monitor, or a computer, so basically things that you can physically touch that have technology in them. Non-contact range is when you measure something, but your not touching it. Measuring angles is basically the measurement of a degree. A trigger pin is used to trigger ultrasonic sound pulses. An echo pin goes high when the ultrasonic burst is transmitted and it stays high until the sensor receives the echo pin, and then by measuring the amount of time the echo pin stays high, the distance can be measured. The speed of sound equals 340 m/s (340 meters in one second). Time is used to help find the distance, for instance you would multiply speed of sound and time to get the distance, but then you have time divide your answer by 2 because the echo pulse tells us the time it takes for the signal to be sent and reflected back.
Equation: Distance = speed x time

For this assignment we had to present our scenes in front of our class, and then they had to review how we did. We also reviewed the other groups, and then we had to review them, for example we had to put how well did the group explain their ancient civilization. This also helped us with realize what we need to improve in out skit.
What does physics have to do with your robot?
I think that physics has an affection on our robot by having different weights on different sides, for example one of the sides of our robot can have more mass than the other, and this can create a bad car, because it would only be moving on one side. Friction is a force that opposes relative motion between surfaces in contact. The side that has more mass would be creating friction against the ground, which is know a kinetic friction, and this would happen because on side has more mass than the other.
To me I feel that art can represent a lot of things, and I feel that art can have many different meanings. Art to me can represent a sense of comfort sometimes, for example, if I see a painting of nature or things of that sort, because the nature paintings look so realistic. I think that different subjects can use art to explain what their trying to teach us. For example, different pieces of art like history paintings can explain to us how they thought of things during their generation.
