For this assignment we had to fill out an investigation to figure out who shot the mascot with a paint gun. At first I was really confused about how to solve the mystery but once I got the hang of it I figured it all out. I got a meets and am proud of the score because I was confused and overwhelmed by this assignment. The only reason why I didn't get an exceeds was because I didn't have enough information on one part of the packet. I was able to figure out who committed the crime and got all of the math correct which is not my strong suit so I am proud of that as well.
Newtons Laws with rockets is a mini pamphlet we made talking about Newtons 3 laws and how they relate to rockets. I got a meets on this and feel like that is what I deserved because I did everything that was required. My goal for the next pamphlet we make is to put more detail into the drawings and try my best to understand what I am actually writing, instead of just paraphrasing what google says.
The rocket design lab was where we had to put the proper amount of materials into a canister and make it into a rocket. We then had to calculate the rates of each mini rocket to watch it launch. I got a meets on this and feel like that what I deserved. I put everything Ms.Boone asked for and got all the information. I'm not sure how I would get an exceeds on this project because there is nothing really above and beyond that I could do.
The egg drop was a hands on experiment we did as a class. We had to create a design and contraption that would protect our egg from a three story drop. I was with Reagan and Josie and our design was a parachute with cups and cotton pads as protection.
