Third week of 20% project

Third week of 20% project
For the 3rd week of my 20% project it was my partner's turn to take it home. While my partner Anthony took it home, I was home updating my blog. I was getting ready for the next week so I could be on task and ready to do whatever I can to help with the project. The rubber band ball is going on a great road. The rubber band ball is growing up like a kid. I believe that in the future the rubber band ball will be bigger than 20 inches. We have a competition in our teacher Mr.Lee's first period class. I think we will get the rubber band ball bigger than first period class. Mr.Lee happened to mention that his first period class's ball is small and ours is bigger. So far so good on the road of making the a big rubber band ball. The prices are getting higher because of the size of the ball. In the future my friend and I will find a way to make more money. Since I'm the only one who could buy from online, we are all going to pitch in to buy them online. I will keep on blogging and you keep on reading my blogs. Thank you for reading.

Second Week of 20% Project..

Second Week of 20% Project 
The second week of the 20% percent project it was my turn to take it home and keep it for a week. After I took it home, I added more rubber bands to make it bigger. I tried to bounce it off a wall and off the ground. The rubber band had a great feedback when I bounced it off the ground but on the wall it will bounce the other way around. My brother tried playing basketball with it and he told me it was great playing with it. I would say that the rubber band could be with if controlled. I think that the rubber band is a success. All my group are working together to make the rubber band bigger. Next week its Jawni's turn to take the ball and add more rubber bands and to measure it after. So far the rubber band is 21 inches and we are trying to make it heaver.

First Week of 20% Project

First Week of 20% Project 

In my 2nd period English class with my teacher, Mr.Lee, the students are supposed to do the 20% percent project. I thought this project is going to be lame but then I learned about it and I liked it. After the week we got started I really enjoyed working with my group and doing our project. After the week went by and we started to work, I realized that we might have a chance to accomplish this project until the end of the 20% project. I'm working with my friends, Jawni and Anthony. We are trying to make a enormous rubber band ball. Then after we came up with ideas on how to start, we made a proposal for our teacher, Mr.Lee. This will give a look on how this project will look like and who will be doing different roles of the project. I will cover the online expenses, Jawni will measure the rubber band ball every time we add more and Anthony will be taking pictures of how the rubber band ball is growing. So far its 21 inches. I hoping that this project will teach people that they can do anything from scrap. I'm also hoping that we will accomplish of doing the enormous rubber band ball.
