In this Scimatics project we worked individually to code a game or simulation about matter, including the Kinetic Molecular Theory and Atomic Theory, using the coding platform Scratch. You can play my game right now! (If it doesn’t load click here.) How can the behaviour of matter be explained by the kinetic molecular theory… Continue Reading ⚛️ Marvellous Matter Trivia

📐 A Laser Arrow Named Timothy
🚀 Launch Laser Tag: we did a fun “entry event” in which we were divided into two teams. We each had one target (a plastic beaker), a shield (a test divider), a mirror and a laser. We started by trying to strategically placing our shield and target so that the other team couldn’t hit it with… Continue Reading 📐 A Laser Arrow Named Timothy
🌎 Disaster Island – Tectonic Board Game
The goal of this project was to creat a game that included at least ten tectonic concepts and some type of probability. For this project I was in a group with Clare and Ben. I enjoyed getting to work with them and get know them better over the course of this project. We started by… Continue Reading 🌎 Disaster Island – Tectonic Board Game
🕙 Fractions of Your Time
Our first Scimatics project! This project was about how much (what fraction of) our time we spend on screens. Before reading this post, please visit my previous post on this project. The rest of this project was just worksheets and a few quizzes. Every day we added our amounts of time for each activity to our… Continue Reading 🕙 Fractions of Your Time
🕑 Fractions of Your Time – Mid-project reflection & process
Scimatics time! This project is about what fraction of our time we spend on screens. The first thing we did in this project was to try and make a tower that could hold a paper clip on top out of one sheet of paper and ten centimetres of tape. It had to be at least… Continue Reading 🕑 Fractions of Your Time – Mid-project reflection & process
