Science smash day reflection

1. Summarize --
-- What did we do for SMASH Day? Smash day is a really greatful for me, because it's the only one day which we are out of stacks of studying. We do fun activities and there are always missions and we have to solve them.

-- What was your mission? our mission was to look inside the box with several materials, we have to make things to look inside, we had mirror and some pieces of box.

-- What supplies were you given? Materials were pieces of box, tapes and mirrors

2. Reflect -- Scientists often make a hypothesis, test it, and then change (or modify) their design to make it work.
--
How many times did you have to modify your design? one
-- How did you know that you should modify your design? we have to get angles of the mirrors where do we have to put mirrors to see inside of the box.
-- How did you know what to do when you modified it? we thought and thought about how to make up things, and we found that how to look inside of the box.
-- How did your team communicate to decide how to modify your design? we communicated altogether, we connect siser with boxes that way we could have make our thing longer, and we put mirror at the celling that way when we look from down, we can look though the mirror.

3. Tips and Suggestions
-- If you could give a list of tips and suggestions to someone who is doing this for the first time, what would it be? What would you tell them to help them out? First of all don't be hurry, you have to be patient, you have a lot of time to do the activity. Therefore don make mistakes with being in a hurry. Think and think then when you are certainly sure, then you make a decision.
Also you really have to consider the angles of mirror, you have to think about the place where you watch your stuff from and things like that....
Although if you are being patient and really think you are going to make it !!

Good luck .
