I really liked makers space because we were free to make what ever you wanted and we made a really big box thing. So byeeeee.

I really enjoyed our tinkering session today. It was so much fun! I used the TinkerToys. They were the ones with wheels and hard straw-type materials. I'm not too sure what I built. I had flippers coming out of the wheels on the bottom, so it was probably a vehicle that went underwater. I tried to do some crazy and indescribable stuff to my toy, and even though I'm not too sure what it was, I had a lot of fun. I'm using past tense because we had to dismantle all our work and it was really sad, but I knew it had to go that way. I built that 'thing' by myself, but I was next to Bubblegumspider, Itzme.eg, and Cleopatra. I think everyone did a great job with their creations. Cleopatra's were so creative, and when I got the time-out I got to see a lot of really cool creations. Okay, bye!

I had a lot of fun tinkering today! I used straws and connects to build a big tower that we could stand inside. I started building it with cydnie then Elijah joined then rylee, Lauren, marina, Chloe and Ellisha joined in to help. We didn't have enough time to finish it though but It still ended up pretty good and I was proud of it! Bye see you in Monday, have a good weekend!

I did have a good time at the makerspace. I used straws and connectors. I built my creation alone. I was going to make it longer and build pants but I didn't have enough time.

I loved tinkering today because it made me relaxed and very calm. It was so cool to look around the room and see everyone else's creations. I first used the Tinker Toys to try and build a self-moving car with a simple mechanism but it didn't quite work out as I thought it would. Then I made a castle out of the Knex bricks. I helped to build the big castle like structure out of straw but, I didn't do much. I saw the straw connectors lying on the ground scattered and it bugged me so, I gathered them and I sorted the connectors by colour. So I figured that I should make an abstract piece of art out of them. I got this idea from CurlyFrie and TeddySprinkle when I saw that they were making shapes out of the straw connectors. I hope everyone has a great weekend. Bye!

I enjoyed doing tinkering today, because I noticed that even though I am doing tinkering for the first time, or any kind like that, I still had fun time building things, and to make them, I used straws and connectors, but I did a little bit of the lego work. First, I started to build a square higher and higher by myself. Second, I just connected the squares to Rylee, and I joined Liliana and Landon's group and built some things with lego, but Landon left and I left the group. After then, I joined and helped Elijah's and Madeline's group for gigantic squares that they are building.

Yes, it was really fun! I used straws and me and lauren were building just a random thing and then we destroyed it and went and helped Elijah's big group with the big creation building thing.

Yes I really enjoyed tinkering. I used the straws and later on switched to legos. I built some of the straw tower, a house/hotel with Landon7 using legos and also built a pool. I am going to bring a bag of chips to the party.

I really enjoyed the maker space. I use the straws and connectors to make a giant tower with Marina, Loren (sorry if i spell any of these wrong), Madiline, Cydnie Rylee and Cloe. It was really fun we used a ton of teamwork and it took a lot of corporation.

I really enjoyed the tinkering Class I thought it was very fun playing with the different things. I built that weird looking car with six wheels with Will and Darrick, we built the contraption out of Lego.

I enjoyed the tinkering class a lot. I used the multi-coloured blocks to make a little house. I was tinkering alone. My goal was to have made a little house that was fit for a lego person and a garage to go with it.
