Static Electricity

Marble Run

My challenge was to make a marble run.  I drew a plan on paper and then we got materials.  We gathered two packs of screws, nails, toilet paper rolls and wood and cardboard.  

We screwed the pieces of cardboard onto the board.  It was hard work.  It didn't work at first because the marble would go too fast and go off the board.  We had to add another pieces of cardboard to make sure that it didn't fall off.  Then it kept missing another piece of cardboard so we add little pieces to keep the marble in.  Then it worked!

This project reminds me of Newton's Law of Motion which says an object that is put in motion will keep on going onto a hard objects stops it from moving any more.

I liked this project because it was fun and it was really challenging.  If I did it again, I would like to try using different materials.

Balloon Powered Lego Car

The challenge was to make a Lego car that could run by a balloon.  It took me two days because I couldn't get it to work.  Mommy got it to work twice but then it wouldn't work again.  I took off a few pieces to see if it made it lighter so it could move but it just ended up making the car break easier.  Then the next day my dad helped me so it worked and my car could run by balloon if I blew up the balloon, making a little thing to attach the balloon onto, then put the balloon down and give the car a little push and it worked!

The balloon was the force that made the car move and with just a little help, it can go faster.

Roller Skating

I liked to go roller skating because it was fun and I got the hang of it after Mommy taught.  Everyone left once the skating rink closed.

Making a Canoe

The first step is to find a good tree, then cut it down with fire or a wedge.  Then, shape the canoe.  Then cut out the inside.  Then paint it.  Then have a ceremony to name the canoe.

Pop can

I liked to do the pop can toss because it was fun and I flipped over a bottle a few times.  My air was a force.

I like to play Bingo because I won once for Gigi and Cecil won 3 times!

I like to go to Energyplex because it was fun.  There were ball shooters, a climbing wall and games and trampolines and a foam pit!

I like to go for bike rides.  I got to ride Mikayla's fast bike.

I liked to make a marshmallow shooter because I could make little marshmallows shoot very, very far.  We're learning about gravity and force.

The Trip

I am packing to go on a trip because I'm going to my Nanee and Bupee's.

I liked to go to the Lego Museum because it was fun to see the Lego.

I like to go to McDonald's because it is fun and I get toys.

I liked to go to the wedding because it was fun and I got Lego!

It was my Auntie Misty and Uncle Randy's wedding.

I like going on the ferry because it is fun and I got candy and a giraffe ring.

I like to go to community class because it is fun and I learn things.  This is my water cycle.

I like to do my poem about swimming because we're going swimming today and it is fun to jump off the diving board.

I hope you read my poem.
