Day Nineteen

Nineteenth day we had to turn in the video and the poster and the crest cut out and enlarged on a cardboard platform. I had the video finished and the crest was finished by Myriam. And she was working on the poster because her job was to do the parabola and equation section. My job was to do 3 real life examples of parabolas. Like one of the examples i had put, the roller coaster. And Victoria's job was to do the history and the group roles of every one in our group and to decorate the poster board so it wouldn't be plain like Mr.Tator's examle.

Day Eighteen

Eighteenth day we worked on the video and the crest because tomorrow it would be due. We had every thing done and ready. We had a change in the assignments. Instead of the simulation we had to design a poster and put in the group roles, the parabolas equations, and 3 real life examples of parabolas seen in every day places. Like: This picture of a roller coaster in the shape of a parabola.

Day Seventeen

On the seventeenth day we had decided to change our trebuchet to a catapult so that it would swing farther. But the fact of changing all the writing process from trebuchet to catapult. I did not want to go over every thing and change it so we kept it as a trebuchet and solved out our obstacles. We have no more situations to deal with all that left is the release mechanism. We just have the hole drilled in, we need a stick and some rope and i think we need 1 or 2 hooks

Day Sixteen

On the sixteenth day we had a lot of time to finish the base frame of the trebuchet. We had many problems trying to make it sling far and trying to follow the regulations but we got through it. We wanted to put a piece of wood onto the runway of the trebuchet but it wasn't allowed to be there if it was a trebuchet, only if it was a catapult.

Day Fifteenth

Fifteenth day we had to start building the trebuchet. We had to at least start building the frame of the whole thing. We just finished the sketch up design and we could start to construct. We also had to take many pictures on every thing we were doing. We had all day to construct the trebuchet, to finish up the sketch up and refine any last things
