Technolegy | Wood-Work

This week for Tech with Mr Grundy, Which is wood work. We have been finishing up our work from the last term which was our models/wood models, The model I have been making is a ship. We have 4/3 more weeks to finish our wood models, I have finished about half of my ship. I though the ship model would have been hard to finish in 3/4 weeks but I was wrong its really easy to work with and finish. The tools I have used for my model which is a ship are - sledgehammer/hammer, square ruler, ruler, vice, wood, saw and a chisel.

Technolegy - Wood

This week for Tech at Tamaki College for Mr Grundy's Wood - Work Group, We have been working on our choosen desings. Before we started making our designs we drawed 8 pictures of something we can turn into for example - A airplane. When we finished making or choosing 8 desings Mr Grundy would check that the desings have wooden joints and that the designs are ready or are ok to use for a desingn. After choosing or making 8 desings we would choose a desingn to use and make, The design I have choosen is a wooden ship. When I first chose to make a wooden ship I wrote a short paragraph about what the desingn I used for, Who the design is for, why have I chosen that design, What/How the design can be used. This Week I have gotten up to the level of making a wooden joint. I have really enjoyed Tech this week because I have finished more then what I have finished last week. Alice.

Kiwi Can

This week for kiwi can we talked about what we focused on for last week, We have a new theme which is Co-operation. I think co-operation is like when you work colabrativly together with either groups, teams, pears or partners.

The first game we played was called A's and B's, In this game we choose one person to be our B or A. The person you choose can't know if you have choosen them to be either your a or b, In this game someone is choosen to choose a action for example - Hop. If I said hop you would have to hop until I change the action.

For the next game which was Magic Shoes we were split into groups, In this game one person is choosen to have the magic shoes. The person with the magic shoes has to make sure the person with no magic shoes can get across to the other side with out having to walk. When the person with no magic shoes gets to the other side they have magic shoes and they have the job to get people across the other side.
