Journal Day 3

Energy, today we had the opportunity to build wind turbine's in a small group. Working in groups is not always simple and often times is downright challenging. If there were one thing that you could change about your group what would it be and why? OR If there is nothing you want changed tell us the three things your group are doing well.

i wouldnt change anything in my group because everything is going fine with the work ,we were all working together and no one had any problems with anything.i think group 11 would be doing well through out the rest of the program.

personally there is nothing that i would change about my group. the three things that my group is doing well is cooperating with eachother, everyone knows how to carry their own load of work, and when we get things done we all show it to eachother in order to see if anything is right or wrong.

While working in our group I felt that it would have been better if we worked better as a group. It would have been good if everyone participated equally. Sometimes the group members rushed the directions and parts of the project didnt come out to well. In the end the turbine came together and hopefully it works the way we expect it to work.

i believe that my group did really well because we all used team work to do it faster. we all helped out in getting the tools and did equal parts to the projects. here are three things that we did that helped us get through it faster:
1- one person got all the tools so we were all ready to build the wind turbine.
2- we all helped out with everything in the project, meaning we all used the scissors, we all used the blade, and we all used the screw driver.
3- we all kept track of time, and took our time doing the project, so we didnt rush it, but in the end got it done.

YO..... Well I guess the question is talking about what i would change in my group... Well I really wont change anything other then nothing. The reason why is because we have been working VERY well togather. Me, G2, Omar, and uh wait what was her name...oh yah Geneaeva. We do work very well We aclompished ALOT today. Also we are almost done.

well today was really hard at times,and there were times that I wanted to SCREAM...but instead i just focused on all the credits that I need. but if i could change somethin about my group, i would probley want a different group, some of my pears were'nt even taking part in the project. i can honestly say that doing the project was much HARDER than dealing with my pears. but besides that working on this project wasnt so bad. =]

today in the program we learned that we had to build a windmill and the concept was pretty hard but me and my group made it through. me i am not really good in arts and crafts but i did the best of my ablity in becoming the reporter. and i wrote down everything that the members of my group did. so i feel i acomplished something. i was really scared of the box cutter and so was joanna so we were both scared together. and i really do a good job at not showing it. but today was fun and i cant wait until we paint the train green and everyone will come see our work. and also see how hard we worked. i am so looking forward to the end i just have to hold on were almost there yes!!!

One thing i well change is we all had to stay with other group and finish up the project, then someone in the group wonding off outside to a next class or a next group and help the other group because they dont know what they are doing then leaving us doing the work for them.

I wouldn't change anything about my group. Everybody in my group participated in the activity and showed a lot of team work towards our project. All of us were determind to finish our project and thats wut we did. Another thing that my group was doing well on was not arguing with each other. This is how we accomplished our goal of building a wind turbine.

The opportunity for today was to build a Wind turbine, I would not change anything about my group because I think we did everything well. The things we did well was working together, we took our time, and we follow the right wasy from the directions on how to build our model.

I think that my group is doing pretty well so far. One thing that my group is doing well is that we get along and work together. Antoher thing is we are using our time wisely. Everyone is doing something in my group. We communicate well.

I think that working in groups is better be cause it would be harder to do this project indivudually. My group works pretty well together and everyone puts in there part. No one arguesl. And we work together.

Today in our group we built wind turbines, well have of it. It was pretty fun except the part where we couldn't get our bottle on the base, and it was getting annoying at first but then we just settle down and got right to it. One of the three things we did well was building the base. The second one was cutting the plastic. The last one was the way we worked together. It was fun because they gave us the oppertunity to listen to music which was cool

Today my group I have seen progress in our turbine but we just cant finish our project yet . Beyond all of the technical difficulties this projects is one of the most fun things i ever done.

My group and I get along very well. We all have very good hands on skills, we listen to each other and take charge of mistakes that we make in a calm manner. I wouldn’t change my group at all I like the people that I work with and the best part is we stick together no is roaming around not doing anything. We all have a part in building this wind turbine and so far it looks good.

I think that my group did really good job on the project because we worked on every part of the project. I think that when we start the project it looks difficult to us and then we figured out it was easy. We used little hard tools for ex: Glue gun,blade,scissor and other stuff. I think that it was good team work for ex: each kid have there own responsibilty for the project.And it was fun to build it.

today we started with the wind turbines which was really hard,not because of the project but because of my group.my group lacked communication and wasn't really organized but we all put effort in.at the end of the day we finished up strong

I think my group worked well today. We worked together and was able to finish most of the project before our lunch break. Now all we have to do is add a few finishing touches and we will be done. I was happy because I'm not that good at building things but our group was strong enough to finish.

i will not change anything from my group.we nall are working good.the three things that my group is doing well is working hard,coopertating,and working together as a team.

I wouldn't want to change anything about my group. I believe my group has the potential to do their jobs. They are doing their part such as cutting out the objects on the paper, connecting the pieces together, and working together as a team would do.

There wasn't change anything in the group because everyone diid everything. Everyone was given a task and they actually did it. We didnt even argue just listened to each others ideas. Our group followed all the direstions accordingly. Also another thing is we diid everything watching the time we had.

Our group is working pretty good together so far. We have some misunderstandings but we work through them. We have good comunication, team work, and a good work ethic. I'm excited to see how our wind turbine comes out finished.

Anonymous said...

well personally i dont think i would really want to change anything, except for the mistakes we made with the base but that doesnt really matter anymore. I'm kind of worried about my group though, because were a little back because of the mistakes we made with the base. So I hope we get to finish it today though

Therre wouldnt be anything that i would changed about my group. We worked well together and not one person did all the work it was divided up evenly. Also we had a better advantage because we worked in a room alone.

One thing that I would change about my group is that everyone participates and contributes to everything we are doing.

Anonymous said...

I wouldnt change anything about my group.The reason that i picked that because our communication was good among us.My group had very good team work and we succeed at completing the wind turbine.

I wouldnt change anything in my group because we all get along with eachother and we were able to get everything done as a team,even though we had some problem with the turbine in the end the project got done in time for testing.
