final reflection

Throughout the school year we did many things that involved using your imagination and creating things. When we first started class we worked in teams in order to see which team could build the tallest tower out of paper and tape. Then we spent some time on the laptops blogging and learning how to build things on inventor. For our final project our class had to build a pump with a partner. My partner Magin and I built a pump using a plunger as a main part for the pump. After our project we were supposed to repair bridges in the nature trail but we don’t have time.

Headphones are constantly breaking because the are made poorly or with the wrong designs. If people redesigned headphones and made them out of a different material they would last longer.
Headphones were first invented in the late 1800s, and they slowly progressed from virtually indestructible to very fragile because they look better. one pair out of every five gets broken or lost within the first two weeks.

key words:
headphones
break
