Technology Rotation


                     Technology Rotation
Hi blogging world. James here. For the past three weeks we have been rotating classes and learning new things every week. In the first week we stayed in our own classes, we got to do the things before the other classes got to experience them.

The first challenge was to make a geoboard with Mr Kim. We had to be in groups of four and our team was the first one to saw the wood and nail all the nails into the board. Then we got to put rubber bands to make a pattern and random stuff on the geoboard.

The Second challenge was the marble challenge with Mr Rattenbury. He gave us a range of everyday school materials. We got to choose our own groups. Then when we got into a group we got all the materials from Mr Rattenbury. Our goal was to hold the marble and see how long you can hold the marble for. We only had 45 minutes to build the structure and try to keep it stable and above the table.

The Third challenge was making our own circuit with a paper clip, watch battery, l.e.d lights, tin foil and a split pin. Our goal was to make our own circuit then make a switch that turns the light on and stays on. 

We did this because after all the things that we did in the rotations we have to build something from all the things we learnt. The whole purpose for this rotation was so we have an idea on what to build when it comes to when we build. We had to make something to show to the whole syndicate.

 I really liked doing this rotation because I learnt heaps of stuff that I didn't know the first time like l.e.d lights and technology words. I think that we might make something really cool with my group to show the syndicate.
