Weekly Passion Project Reflection

WEEK 3 REFLECTION
What did I achieve this week during Passion Project time?
I created a one second animation of an iron golem walking.
What challenges did I have?
That I had to do like 30 frames for one second of animation so it took a long time and I was moving the legs to much in each frame and it looked weird.
What am I going to work on next week?
Adding a background and possibly doing two characters and learn how to change the default text to something else and make the moving more in time.

I don't know how to get the animation off the software so I cannot add any evidence.

Winning the Epro8 challenge!

Because we were competing with 8 other schools and now we get to go into the semi finals and we got the trophy

Japanese puffer fish writing

Japanese Puffer Fish


The Japanese Puffer Fish is found on the ocean floor around Japan. It does some amazing things to be noticed.

Shiny scales layering the Puffer Fish's skin makes it camouflaged on the ocean floor. His scales dully shine as if they are shells reflecting light back up from the ocean floor.  Even though he works 168 hours a week he appears to always be happy with his mouth in an adorable grin.  It also has small fins that makes it look particularly as if it could fly.

Gliding through the sand ploughing the Puffer Fish sculpts his design. This extraordinary animal works for one hundred and sixty eight hours straight without any rest.  The pattern this amazing fish creates is a beautiful design.

The reasons that the male Japanese Puffer Fish creates his design is to attract a mate and to claim his territory so that no one will fool the females that they made it.

In summary I think that the Puffer Fish is one of the best animal artists in the world.

Week 1 Reflection

WEEK 1 REFLECTION

What Learning did you find challenging this week?
finding things like exponents over 5 for the exponent.

How did you use a growth mindset to overcome these learning challenges?
I used long multiplication to do it faster when it got to bigger numbers like 354x6.

What is the piece of the work you are most proud of this week?
Finding 8 to the power of 5 which was 74044.


Why are you proud if it?
Because it required me to do 8x8x8x8x8 which is very annoying with long multiplication because it takes a long time.
