Doll House in the Works

This ambitious project was completely invented and designed by Alex. We have a lot more work yet to do, but it is progressing wonderfully.

Pumpkin on Display

Nadir's pumpkin has been installed out front for the fall season. I asked him to reflect on the project and write why he chose to display it out front and how he feels about it now that he can see it complete and on display. He wrote the following:

The reason why I want to put it out in front of the school is because I thought it would be nice for the school to look at and we had planned on that for months. Now people can look at it when they come and leave the school. I feel really good about the pumpkin being out front for everyone to see.

Nadir's Halloween Candy Box

Project Summary:
List the steps needed to complete this project:
1. We read the instructions to tell us what the sizes were.
2. Next we cut the pieces of wood in the shapes of the instructions
3. We painted the wood in red, white, black, and blue colors.
4. We attached the wood by gluing and using screws.

What was the most challenging part?
I would say the most challeging thing about this was trying to get the screws in the project was very challeging because we had to use different screws to hold the project together. Like for example, I noticed that if we tried to put a screw in the project some of the wood might break a little bit or there would be a screw that would be blocking the screw that we were trying to put in there. But eventually we got all the screws where they needed to be.

Why did you choose this project?
I chose this project because of the fact that I thought it would be a fun project to do and as it turns out it looks very good.

If you could do it again, would you do anything differently?
No. If there were more things to do on this project I would do more.
