Science – Pulley project

My project was the elevator I am using a fixed pulley because I do not want the pulley to turn around. Here is a video about different types of pulleys:

Simple Machines–Pulley and its types | Grade-4,5 | Science | TutWay | – YouTube

 

Procedure:

1. I got a box and cut the bottom

2. I put a dowel in between

3. I put in a string

4. I attached the string to the platform

5.I attached 3 cardboard pieces together to make another box

6. I attached the box to it

Materials:

1.dowel

2.string

3.cardboard

4.tape and hot glue

Hypothesis:

My hypothesis was that it would go up/down depending on how the string i knew this because pulleys work by spinning the thing that pulls something up(aka pulley) that is attached to the platform so when I spin it the platform goes up.

Results:

 

Conclusion

My conclusion was correct the pulley pulled up the platform and the system work however I did have to make some adjustments. My adjustments were:

1.Cutting a lot of the box to make space

2.Attaching two boxes together because one wasn’t enough

3.Creating support platforms for it to stand

4.Using a bigger dowel because the smaller one couldn’t fit

5. The first one broke so I had to remake most of the pulley system and add more support to stop it from falling

Grade 4 nothing book review

                                The start

Peter wins a contest and gets a turtle as a reward then he introduces us to his family his mom fudge and his dad someone who works for the advertisement company Fudge is a young and messy person.

Fudge gets his dad mad at him by not eating and his dad takes him to the bath and dumps his cereal on him. Peter gets secretly happy because his mom gets mad at fudge which rarely happens.

In the later parts

we get introduced to shea

and Fudge, Peter, Shiela, go to the park peter has to babysit fudge with Shiela, Shiela is the leader fudge falls down and gets a few teeth lost believing he can fly his mother comes in and doesn’t get mad at Shiela and goes home with Peter in Peters house Peters mom gets very mad at him and Peter goes into his room and closes the door later his mom gets in and apologizes.

 

Rating

In the end, I think fudge and peter will have

a big break because they’ve been doing lots of things together maybe move to another country.

I would recommend this book to ages of 5-11

because of vocabulary and it’s very funny too

I would give this a  4-star rating because

  1. It’s a pretty short book
  2. It is filled with funny parts
  3. I like the way fudge is kind of the main antagonist but peter is.
  4. There’s is a moral that is pay attention to what you’re assigned to even if you don’t like it.
