Learning Log Week 4

For Math, Language Arts, and Science I did k12.

ELECTRICITY/CIRCUITRY: For this class I worked on my second assignment.  I did a lot of projects where the fan makes noise.  I used the spin thing and it spins super fast.  I also tried some of my own projects.

ROCKETRY FOUNDATIONS: I set off my first rocket.  It went too high, and we lost it.  We're going to use a smaller engine next time.  We looked for the rocket for an hour and couldn't find it.  We're going to buy another one and use the other one from the school.  My favorite thing was watching the rocket go over the clouds.  It was very loud.  It left a big black mark on the round piece.
I also made a banner for my rocket launch.  I named it Moon launch.  I did a drawing of the lost rocket.

Weekly Learning Log - Week 3 (Sept. 15-19)

For Math, Language Arts, and Science I did k12.

ROCKETRY FOUNDATIONS: I watched some more videos about how rockets work.  My brother helped me get ready for my first launch.  We're going to launch two rockets tonight with my family at the park.  I also made the balloon rocket.  It launched across the chairs.

ELECTRICITY/CIRCUITRY:  I watched some videos.  I made the first project work.  I tried some of my own projects too.  I like following the book, and I like making my own projects too.  I like watching them work.

Weekly Learning Log - Weeks 1-2 (Sept. 3-12)

For Math, Language Arts, and Science I did k12.

ROCKETRY FOUNDATIONS: For Rocketry class I watched all of the beginning videos.  I learned that rockets can go to space.  I learned that the first airplanes didn't fly very far.  I'm still waiting for my rocket kit to come in the mail so I can build my own rockets.  I'm excited to build rockets.

ELECTRICITY/CIRCUITRY: I started a couple projects, and I played around with all the circuits a lot to try new things.  My favorite is when I can make the fan spin up in the air.  Here is a picture of one of the projects I did.  I love this class!
