TWIS # 15 Milestone

Kasheem, Andy & I building...

This is it! I've enjoyed myself this school year in science & I've grown as well but this is the last "This week in science" this time we did the marshmallow challenge for the third time this year. I wasn't assigned to the same group because of an issue. It was pretty interesting working with the defending champions group.It was more fun this time but different.We did one try without talking to our group about anything, just staying shut the whole time and the second time with communications. My group was fun even though we did not win but we came up with creative ideas. None of them worked out but at least we had fun. This week we also made a video script to introduce ourselves to our tenth grade teachers. We went to the roof, picked our spot and then lights, camera, action! We answered questions like- What are name is? Have you grown in science this year? & so on..It was interesting to see other people's work and how they changed and improved from the beginning of the year. The week finished by uploading it to our blogger as you can see under, and google docs.

The classes results, my group was the architects

     This week in science I learned that I work better in groups. I learned that groups shows you how to divide ideas and share them. Sometimes you have to go with another persons idea and trust them. My group would not focus sometimes, especially when we did the silent marshmallow challenge but you have to learn to put up with those kind of things. It all depends on group member mostly. Some groups were more creative than others and I learned that i should go for the highest achievement (GO BIG OR GO HOME). I learned how to make a video script better. It was way harder before. I didn't know nobody, I didn't know what to say how to react or anything. This time I showed more emotion and just went with my gut feeling. I learned from Richie that it doesn't have to be perfect, you could show humor you don't all serious all the time. We ended with uploading our video to Google Drive & our Blogs.
