In Rapid Prototyping we were learning about the Carvey machine and how they work. I enjoyed this topic much better than unit 1 because I was more engaged in class and I knew what I was doing. The Carvey machine makes everything look so much better, especially when you are comparing it to something that you made by hand. We haven't gone on any FE's for this unit yet, but we will be going on one on December 15,2017. My experience with the Carvey machine was amazing. I was so surprised at the way my project came out. It was very nice and clean. There were some malfunctions when it came to my design because we were only allowed to use 2 drills. I had to use the smallest drill due to my designs, but I am very happy with the way my project came out. In RPG, we have been working on distance formula, how to find mass, volume, distance, and much more. You will be seeing examples of what we learned in my project. You will also see my project and the outcome of my handmade and Carvey proj...

In Rapid Prototyping, we have been talking about how to use a CNC Machine.  It has been really fun learning how to work with electronics and going to mHub to see the different types of machines.  We learned how CNC Machines work and how to use them.  They aren't that hard, and that was what surprised me the most because I never used one before and I thought that it was going to be difficult. When we went to mHub we walked around and saw the different types of machines they have and what they use to make them work.  I will admit, I was tired of walking around but I do feel that the experience was a good thing to learn.  For our AP, we had to make a slideshow and we had to compare a piece of art to the CNC version of the art piece.   In Conclusion, this project was very interesting and I thought that the CNC Machine was a very cool piece of machinery and I enjoyed working with it.

In Poetic Justice, we have been working on political poems in class.  When I write poems I like to rhyme because it sounds better to me.  We went on FE's that really helped me write these poems.  We talked about the different types of poems and how you can write them, and that helped me a lot.  My poem is very interesting, especially since it has something to do with me.  I love the way Hiu and Sharon helped the class write out our poems.  We've done classroom feedback, and I felt that it wasn't as helpful because I feel like I could've received more feedback, but I didn't get that from my class or from the other students that are apart of this class.  My poem is very touching and I hope that, you, the reader enjoys my poem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Being a color is now a bad thing Go listen to Dr. King’s “I have a dream” The huma...
