Designing Teens

The photo is a clear example of my team's challenges. Since the marbles always bounced

out when they landed in, we put foam pieces in our can to stop the bounce.

 

Today in Design It, we made ski jumps out of foam noodles! Cool huh?! And we had marbles for skiers. So it was pretty sweet seeing the marble shoot out into our cans. But it wasn't all good at first. My team had to take extra steps to figure why our marbles weren't making it into our can. So we marked and were more precise about where we were putting things. So at the end of the challenge we were proud of ourselves for figuring it out. Yay for persistence (Sarcasm).

 Today we made roller coasters that had to have certain features such as hills, valleys, loops and ect . The roller coaster you see in the picture is the feature of a hill.  Taping it to the wall to hold it up was very helpful so that it could stay up. At the end of the rollercoaster was a can so that when you rolled the marble down the rollercoaster it flew into the can. Try It!!

My name is Kevin and today we made sketch robots. I made my sketch robot out of: 4 clothes pins, 1 Dixie cup, 1 motor, 1 AAA battery, 1 craft stick, 1 marker, and some tape. How I made the sketch robot is I put the 4 clothes pins on the rim of the cup and I spaced them out evenly.Then I flipped the cup upside down. Then I put the craft stick the spinning part of the motor. Then I put the motor with the craft stick on the top of the cup (which is really the bottom). Then I put together the motor to the battery and I put some tape on the battery and put it on the side of the cup. I then put the marker on the side of the cup and i put it low enough to touch the paper so it could draw.
