Oct 7 Class

Today in class we discussed the effects of mirrors. The activity we did involved a notecard, pencil, sheet of paper and a mirror. We punched a hole through the notecard and placed the pencil through the hole. The we used the mirror to help us write backwards. This was a very hard skill to master and it was very hard to make the letters in the right directions. The shapes that we were asked to make were also very difficult. The purpose of this lab was to show us how to introduce something new to students and showing them how we go about doing something new. We also talked about judging a science fair at the end of the class period since we will be going to a school to judege their science fair. Leaving class today I felt that I had learned a new skill of learning to write with a mirror. This was a new skill and it was hard to learn, but it showed me how when starting something new how we must study it.
