Prop Cars

For the past month, we have be conducting RC prop cars. Our team consisted of 5 people. We built a simple design. 
Our car gave us a lot of difficulty. We had a hard time with the wheels because originally our  wheels weren't unable to hold our model. Finally we were able to switch the wheels. We also moved the motor further up on our design to all for more motion. After all these trials and errors, our team was able to win. It was a wonderful moment when we beat the favored car.

Flow Charting

Last Friday, (3/22) we had a lesson on flow charting. We worked on our flow charts on Monday (3/25) and Wednesday (3/27)



Conclusion:
1. Flow-charting is similar to using a map to plan a road trip because it lays out the necessarily steps of the trip. The map is a great guide for the observer because it plans the course and lays everything out in black and white. 
2.  A process that I preform everyday is getting up, getting ready and going to school.  Each morning I get up  and take a shower. After a shower, I get dresses and put my makeup on. After that  I go to the kitchen and eat breakfast. After breakfast, I brush my teeth and then I go to school.
