Week #2 of our season involved a lot of prototyping. And a lot of learning!
Aaron and John worked on a spinner idea that used two tires to propel the Particle forward. They decided that it was impractical in as small a space as we had. They would have to spin too fast. Maddy and Mark worked on a catapult! Using rubber bands. We also had two guests Thursday! Elijah who is interested in joining and Doug who's thinking about becoming a mentor for our team! Ethan met Elijah through their weekly Doungons and Dragons game at the Library and he thought to invite him to join! He seemed to really enjoy it! Doug is Ethan's grandpa did Computer Aided Design (CAD) at Aljon! This is something which could be very useful to the team as we'd love to learn more of that! Ethan and Elijah tried an inverted catapult that kicks the particle! This is an interesting idea and needs more prototyping!!! Remember to check back every Friday for our weekly blog update!!!
