Today we worked on our model and our tri-fold board. Again we split into groups, but this time they were a bit different. Today it was me, Elizabeth, and Lisette working on the tri-fold while Gabriel, Carlos, and Sara worked on the model. Again, I wasn't there for the whole time of the building of the model, so I am not exactly sure what happened at the times I wasn't there, but I do know the basics.
The building group (Sara, Carlos, and Gabriel) worked on drilling a new hole into the bucket so that the spoon wheel would fit properly. But this time there was some more trouble. The stator broke apart. So they had to fix it by gluing it together. It is stsaying in one piece, ao hopefully when the pressure of the water hits it, it won't break.
Today in the tri-fold board group we worked hard on the tri-fold. We got the perfect colors of paint and we started planning out what things we would have on it, and we started printing things out. So we got the paint and mixed it together perfectly and stuff. But then after we started painting the board we realized that rge dark blue didn't suit as the main color of the board, and the paint looked really messy on the board because the board was really bumpy. So we decided we didn't want to use a messy looking board because that will take away from the learning, and the neatness of the rest of the board. So then I called my dad and asked him if he could buy a new tri-fold board, and two different types of paint so that we could make a new board, and make it look neat. So we had him drop the stuff off after school so that I could stay after and work on it to get stuff done. So Lisette and I stayed after school and we painted the board and we painted little waves on it. The waves were because we are Hydropower, and hydropower is water. So that is all we have done so far on our poster board, but tomorrow we will hopefully finish up!
