For this project, Mr. Williams surprised us in the last two weeks of school by telling us that we were doing a "Do it better project". He told us that we could choose one project from this school year that we thought we could improve on, and fix it up. We were given two weeks for this project. I decided to fix up my build a band instrument. Instead of getting in a group, I chose to work with a single person, MiMi. We decided to just create some new drums, since our old drums weren't exactly the best quality. So we decided to create an all new American drum. It comes with beautiful paint bucket bases and pure leather heads. We also created a documentary on our journey to creating the American drum. It includes physics. And what we went through to create these masterpieces. Below you will see pictures of our materials and our documentary that we(Mostly MiMi) created.
Here you can see the pieces of leather we used for the drum heads.
And here you can see the paint buckets that we used to create the drum with.
Above is the documentary that MiMi and I created. It's pretty great.
Reflection
I felt that this project was really great. I feel like I worked better being in a smaller group. I also feel like I could have done more stuff to help create the documentary. Some good things were that I was able to bring in the paint buckets really quickly, and MiMi(make sure you capitalise the second "m" or you're spelling it incorrectly) brought in the leather. There were no bad things about this project. Everything went rather smoothly. I think that this was one of my favorite projects. I had a lot of fun. Below you will see the physics of drums.
