Egg Drop Contest =)

We could have changed our thing to a bigger parachute. Because it wasnt big enough to catch enough air, there for it didn't slow down enough. We also maybe could have made it bigger and added more coushion. But, other than that I think it was good. But, it could have been better. At least it lasted to the second round. I didn't even think it was goin to make it through the first round. So, that is a +. hehe...but it was fun!!!
We made ours out of alot of stuff. Like, popsicle sticks, hot glue, black paint, paper clips, bolts, cotton balls, rubbber bands, paper, and a few other things. I think it would have also been better if I added fewer bolts. I was trying to make it where it wasn't top heavy. But, I ended up makeing it too heavy and it wayed it down to much. Whitch make it hit the ground faster and harder. So to conclude there was a lot of thing i would have fixed on the egg drop prject contes thing. I bet my partners on this project wanted to change alot also . I just wish I could have come up with a better idea. Anyway, now I am just babbling on about nothing so...bye.




P.S. this was a really fun project and I would do it again in a heart beat...

What I Learned On The 8th Grade Trip!!!

I learned that Finding Nemo lied to me, it says that you can touch a jellyfish on the top and it won't sting, but in real life it will sting you anywhere it touches you. I also learned that, there were 3 nasa ships that could not be deployed during WWII.

Chinese Symbols Project

What I learned during my projest is that China has tons of alphabets and each has at least 46 characters. The yin and yang symbol, i always thought it meant peace, but it really means though opposites they become one. (this is the pic above)
