Today we only have 20 mins to work we are putting on the finishing touches we only need to stick on the wheels and put our Logo and slogan. We are rushing because it's really hard to work since we don't have our wheels glued on. We are all very stressed and realieze this is not an easy prject. We just glued on our wheels on and are about to go test out our rover. We just made the sheet with distance time and average speed. We excited to see how far our rover goes

Today is pretty much our last day of working. We have to work hard and fast. We finished the front of our rover which is the face of our brownie. The eyes are made out of vitamin water caps the nose is made out of a metal tin circle and the mouth is made out of a long broken toothpick. We are finishing the wheels today. The wheels are made out of vitamin water bottles with tennis ball caps and a long toothpick in the middle of it.We made a thermometer out of two long toothpicks sticked together to use it as our termomitor

Right now we glued on the bottom of our rover. Today we learned that hot glue guns are REALLY REALLY HOT! We helped each other with the blog because I didn't know how to post a post on the iPhone. We also took duck tap we found on the table and wrapped it around the tennis ball cans to make it more sturdy and at the same time better looking
Yesterday we made the camera.The camera is made out of tennis ball cans with a box covered in foil with a fake camera lens. We also glued on the pictures that the kindergarteners colored in for our rover.Another thing we did for our rover is made an antenna out of foil and a long toothpick. Today we glued on the camera with the hot glue gun and we are using vitamin water containers to be our wheels. We were going to use our skateboard wheels but we couldn't take them off.We also glued the nose of our rover on. The nose is the nose of a brownie. Last week we went to the kindergarteners and they colored in pictures of hearts,cupcakes,and smiley faces. These pictures that they colored symbolize our theme of our rover which is a loving and happy brownie. Our groups name is MJM brownies because we are all brunettes which gave us the idea of being the "brownies. Till next time :)
