Paper helicopter

 

 Today for a reading task we had to make paper helicopters. We made them because our reading task was about a kid that stuffed his dead cat and turned it into a remote control helicopter. To make it you need to hold a 1x10cm piece of paper in half, stick a paper clip in the bottom, after that you would fold the wings down. Once you have done that you drop it in the air and it should spin.

Will you try and make one?

MicroBit

There is a website called microbit and you can code a microbit. If you have a microbit you can put the file of your creation in it. We did it with Mr.Kinane we did animation on it made a paper scissors rock game and did the one you could choose. Mr. Kinane is going to be here Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday The video is the one I did that I could choose You can code microbit with blocks, python, or javascript. If you have a microbit then you can plug it in with a USB cable, and then you can play the game that you created on it. If you want to keep it then you need to get this battery to power it. On Tuesday we made it to see how far a micro bit can send its messages. Then on Wednesday, we made it so it spins a little propeller. To do that we needed a cricket and that you put the micro bit in it and then plug in the battery and the propeller I got mine to spin. We coded it so then it could open and close. We put in on a cup and then put a straw in one of the propellers.
