Inquiry - Robotics

For inquiry today we tested our robot to see if all the cords and all the pieces were in the right place. My group and I all took turns driving the robot on the table. It was alright for some time we just had to somehow fix the wheels on the left side of it because they didn't roll normally like the others, so we tried, and tried but couldn't figure it out so we put it back on the table and kept driving it, it was slowly getting better, at one point of the one of the kids in our group lost control of it and it reversed backwards off the table, so we had to re-build it again, luckily not all the pieces came apart. It took some time to fix again but we managed to complete it, it was a bit better then how it was before it died, so in a way, when it reversed off the table it sort of helped. This is a photo of our end result.

WALT: Create a positive digital footprint.
Today we Had Whaea Deborah was in our class and we learnt about positive and negative things online. we also learnt what to post privately and what can be posted publicly. We also learnt to make sure if you sent something funny or anything at all to people that you can trust because if you send it to just someone randomness random you. could wake up the next day and millions of people could have it.

For this activity we had to read what each person had to say and red means that this information is not positive to share and green means that ithe is something that can be posted without any hassle of anything bad coming your way.

This week for our writing had to write persuasive sample. we could choose a topic of our choice. I chose why we should we have a 3 day weekend. I personally think I didn't do my best because I tried to rush and get it done, but I also feel like I did an ok job.
