This week we made solar cars! In the building process Shane put us into teams, I’m in a team with Josie and Maddie. How solar cars work is that the is a plank of wood and the back wheels have a gear in the center one canected to the motor and one canected to the wheels. the axle is hot glued to the top of the car. so when the sun hits the solar panel the motor goes so then the wheel spin and the car moves. Also this week we talk about this bread of mouse that is very interesting. The grasshopper Mouse. What makes them so cool is that they are immune to scorpion venom. But a certain type of centipede can kill them. I found this mouse very interesting and you should go look them up because they can do way more awesome stuff. Well that my blog for this week! Have a great day. 🙂
