Technology!

Today, My class, Room 6 had Technology. Technology is when you learn about other things than Math, Literacy and other subjects. You learn about science and cooking and design etc. Today we learnt about electricity. Our Teacher, Mr Heath had this device where you turn the handle around and the inside would make some sort of electricity and if you hold the two wires, the electricity will bounce from the wire to your hand and will go through your whole body. If you hold hands with someone, that electricity will go from the wire to you and to the next person. That was just one activity!

Our second activity was making key chains out of acrylic! Acrylic is a type of plastic. We had to use the acrylic to make a key chain. The acrylic has paper on the outside of it so that you can write on it and plan out what it is gonna look like. After you do that, you start cutting. We used a coping saw to cut it because a coping saw has a small blade, small enough to cut a thin piece of acrylic. After you have cut out your shape, you can choose what to do with it after. I chose to use this hot surface thing to melt the middle to twist it. And I wrote my name so it looked awesome!

I had a very fun time at Tech and I can't wait to go again!
