Simple Machines

On Monday, November 6, 2000, Mrs. Thomas' classroom turned into a contraption department. Our teacher, Mrs. Thomas, decided to do this because we were learning about the six simple machines. Every child in our class had to draw and design plans for his/her contraption. Keila and Fariha drew beautiful plans. Alex did one with cars. Simon did a basketball one. Vaerie did a candy one. Lena and Emma did toothpaste ones. Nicholas did one with a basket. Kaitlyn did one with a Hershey kiss. Sam did one with a "chewy." If you every need to raise a flag, ask Jesse. I did a back scratcher. - by Anna
