Also in that class we learn about money management which I think is intersting. Workspace

PREP Final Week Reflection

 

Today we packaged our products in sets of 2 and 4, we also set up our table and made the advertising. I feel our team has worked well together throughout the whole thing. We had no difficulties or challenges. The teacher has told us where to get stuff we needed and helped in a lot of other ways as well. 

Our stall before being set up.

PREP Week 9 Reflection

Today we created our poster for advertising. I do feel our team has worked well together because creating the coasters was really smooth and efficient, same with everything else.Other than making the prototype which wasn't that confusing we had no challenges.Our teacher has helped us by telling us what to do when we get stuck.We need to bring the posters to put on our table and our product.

PREP Reflection Week 8

 Today my group and I wasted almost 2 blocks trying to get the laser cutter to work for us, in the end we just gave up since it wasn't working out. The rest of the time we used to make a poster which we didn't get to finish. I think I didn't use my time very well since I did almost nothing for 2 blocks. I didn't achieve anything today but if I had too choose it would probably be the poster since it's the only work I did today. Kobe and his group are making chopping boards. To make sure i'll be on task next week I should find something to do so I won't get distracted like today.

PREP Reflection Week 7

 Today we made a few more coasters and varnished all of them. I think I used my time well, we got pretty far. My biggest achievement today was being able to varnish all of the coasters. Joe Singh and his group are crating candle holder made out of driftwood that can hold the amount of 3 - 7. I think i'm all ready anad set for next week.

PREP Week 5 Reflection

Something that went well was that we were able to make so many coasters. Nothing really went wrong I would say it went well. I think I used my time well, the biggest achievement today would probably be that we were able to make so many coasters. I think Joe's product is cool. Next time we will add varnish put the designs on it and maybe add something else.
