On your blog, tell us which one of the videos you liked the best and why..
I like video number 1 because we kind of did something like that when I was in Room 5 with Mrs Middleton.
Good afternoon Laki,
ReplyDeleteCan you please explain to me in detail what sort of information was given on the video clip and how it links to the learning you did in the classrooom?
Remember some of the readers that come across your blog posts may not have a single idea about what you're trying to introduce! Did you make something similar to a cacophonometre at school? How did you do this? Was it successful?
Did you see on the video clip how Grant is in the process of developing a super trap called 'cacophonator' after his initial invention - the 'cacophonometer'? These are pretty big words and I personally did not know about these inventions prior to this. Have a look at the website below as it explains in detail what 'cacophonometer' is.

Let me know if you find any interesting facts - I'll be keeping an eye out for your response!
Looking forward to hearing back from you,
Susie
Hi Laki,
ReplyDeleteI think it would be good if you could include information about this day, some people might not know what you're talking about. If you did it would be good.
Great work and keep it up
