Rube Goldberg Reflection Questions

What do you feel successful about?
I feel successful about our groups design & how well it worked, it took a couple of tries to get it, because the dominos kept getting knocked over, but it eventually worked. Also we got our design done in one block so that was really good.

How did it feel to work with your teammates?
It was good working with Dani & Jayda because they are both my friends but we also got all of the work done. But when Jayda went help out with the drama production it got harder because there were less people to help our group but we got it done even though we didn't have our whole group.

Is there any step in the process where you were getting stuck?
We were getting stuck with the dominos. They kept on falling over & knocking the rest over. Also people kept accidentally knocking the table & that would cause them to fall. But apart from that the rest of the design worked perfectly.

Gummy Structures

Today we made tetrahedrons out of gummies & sticks to test if a triangle is stronger than a square we tested how much weight it could hold by balancing bibles on top of it & seeing how much they could hold. The most bibles people could hold was 4 & it had to hold on top for 10 seconds after they had put them on. If it toppled over before the 10 seconds then they failed. Here is a picture...
