Well done Ana Maria, you used 3 simple machines in your design and showed you have an excellent understanding of simple and compound machines. Your e-book was detailed and showed in detail the process your group went through to design and make your compound machine.

UOI Who We Are - Art Reflection

Jitish Kallat Portraits We made our portraits in the style of Jitish Kallat an artist from Mumbai.   We represented our cultural identity, nationality, language, religion and ethnicity in our portraits. Here is my portrait. How does your portrait reflect your cultural Identity? It shows my cultural identity in the background because I drew the Brazilian flag which is where I come from. I put down ISZL because it is one of the schools I have been to. I love to eat sushi so I put that down because it is part of me. I put down all the things that matter to me in my life. Some of the words and pictures I put on my painting reflected all the things I think are important in life.

Procedural Writing

We did an experiment with different types of toy balls. We would drop all of them from a specific height and see how high the ball would bounce. We then measured the height and moved onto the next ball. Once we dropped all the balls once we would drop them again. We dropped them 3 times. In the end the ball which jumped the highest was a red spiky ball.
