Factory game day 2

In factory game day 2 it was a lot different from day 1. At the beginning everyone voted on who they thought had made the best bear. One we decided who had made the best bear we had to mass produce this one bear. We had one person who was the supervisor and the rest of us were the laborers. We worked while the supervisor shouted at us. We had a time limit of 45 minutes and had to make as many bears as possible.

Factory game day 1

Today it was factory game day 1. We were given markers crayons pieces and glue and had to make the best thing we could from it. Everyone made a different type of bear with different colours. We were given about 20 minutes to make the bear and you have to make it by yourself.

mother necessity


I think the phrase 'Necessity is the mother of invention' is correct. This is because i believe all inventions are made because we need them. For example Samuel Morse invented the telegrapher this is because he thougt it would be easier if he didn't have to travel to tell someone something this way he could just write something down. So that is why he invented the telegrapher. Also Tomas Edison watched his mother work late into the night in pitch black. That is why he invented the electric bulb so that everyone could see when it was dark. And a final example would be Elias Howe he knew lots of people work for a long time sewing by hand, so he thought he could make it easier by inventing a sewing machine.

How do I learn best

I learn best visually. This is because if it is visual you have to watch the video if you just have to listen you can look anywhere and may lose concentration. To learn more effectively in the classroom when we have to learn something show a video or make it a visual presentation.
