If we had an injured person or an old person we would have to put them in the middle so they can keep warm. After that we had to try and dive and touch the floor of the pool with the life jackets. This was challenging because we had to because the life jackets were made for people who put them on to float. In in that case we were not allowed to take the life jackets.

Simple Machines - Rube Goldburg - Inquiry

LI: To learn about the five simple machines and apply what you learnt into make a machine.

Our Rube Goldburg machines were tested and presented. We had to chose one scenario out of three.  A Rube Goldburg machine is a complicated machine made to do a simple task. Our scenario was putting a ball into the goal, but the main idea was to put the ball.If you wanted someone to be one of the part in the machine then they had to were blindfold. Also when were the blindfolds something or someone must touch the other person.

Example : 

Say if you were in the machine and something touches you then you move. You can't see which direction you are going or what direction you going to hit something into.

What we used : 

We also had to include the simple machines.

The 4 main Ideas were

1-wheel and Axel.

2-Lever

3-Pulley

4-Inclined Plane.

Experiences In the groups :
Each member in the groups thought was that our machine was going to fail because the person putting might of hit the ball in the wrong direction. But our simple machine worked. Every part of the simple machine worked.

What I would do Differently :
I will change the part when someone pushes the domino's and someones finger is their. So when the domino's touch someones finger and they push the pull. Just to make it is easier.  

Experiences - Challenges :  

This experiences we had was challenging.My Movement was waiting for a ball to hit the putter and then I would swing the putter and will hit the ball into the goal.

Scripted - I agree with the text because some people have more than enough technology in the house or around you. According to education world kids like watching T.V but they watch thing that don’t help them learn. Sometimes kids can stare at the screen for a long time and that cause your eyes to dry out.Also did you know that blue light changes the body’s circadian rhythm that tells people if it day or night. I found this at How too much screen time Affects Kids' Eyes
