Science Waves Project!!!

I did "Love Like Woe" by The Ready Set. :)

Edited Love Like Woe.egg on Aviary.

For this project we had to take a song and edit it using our knowledge of waves. I decided to make the voice higher by changing the pitch and combining the two voices to make melody. This related to waves because the higher the pitch is the smaller the wavelength. So, the original song's waves are larger than the edited version.

Balloon into space!!!

For the past couple weeks our grade has been working on a huge project. The end result was a weather balloon going into space. I worked by myself on this project and I designed a container. This container was made out of polystyrene which made it very light. To keep the container from shedding I covered it in aluminum foil and duct tape. In the end my container was not chosen to go into space but was a very interesting looking thing.

The balloon went into space Friday and got quite a bit of publicity. Mr. H was clearly nervous but excited. I can't wait to see what we do with the left over containers!!! :)

I FINALLY GOT THE CONTAINER THROUGH A TEST!!! Mr. H and I went to the bleachers and did some tests and it worked really well!!!

Tonight at 6!!!!!!!!! :)

:( I guess not....but all in all it was a fun project...

Wow the containers that are being designed are amazing but I hope that spending the majority of my time on design was a good idea. Fingers crossed!!!

We had Ms. Baehr the other day and I worked a lot on my design so I know exactly what I'm doing. I can't wait to start building.
