Tech Reflection - Mr Grundy

 LI: To create a joint between two pieces of wood.

Today for tech, the year 8s continued to create the joint between to pieces of wood. We worked with Mr Grundy at Tamaki College.

First we we handed our pieces of paper that had our designs on it as well as the wood we will be using to create our toys or gifts. Then began to to saw out the two piece we need so we can make the joint. After cutting the two pieces we began to measure out the joint.

Then after that we used a tool called the tri square to make sure our lines where we're going to cut is straight. Then after that we used another tool which was a chisel so after we cut out the lines with a saw we were using a saw we used the chisel to scrape out the wood so we can put another wood in between the piece we cut.

I did a simple design which was very easy for me to complete the joint of my piece of wood. I enjoyed this week tech because I got to complete my joint and that mean I can add the hook to me design and after that mean I completed my whole design.

Tech Reflection | Algorithm | Coding | Robotics



Today we had tech. The years 8 were separated from the year sevens. The year sevens were with Miss Ferguson. She was teaching us about robotics. First she taught about coding and algorithms. Then she gave as a robot each. before we could play with the robot we had do some coding which was instructions for the robot.
We learned and played a game so we understand what algorithms mean. Algorithms means Introductions.
