PSP NGP:

I think that the new version of the psp is something really cool because it is realy technological starting with its touch scree. I really like the psp because of all of the advantages that it had and because how it has been changing over the years. I really like how you can use the back of it to be able to play just as if you where useing the fron screen. I like how this new psp is in three different colors which are gray black and white. I will really like to buy a psp but I bet that they are really expensive.

Mad Hot Ballroom

What teamwork means to me is when a group of people really working together to get ideas from each other and also to get help from others.
In this movie the students work together in various ways like for example when they dance they are working together, also when they are depending on each other.
This idea can really give opportunities because if they are really good at dancing it could become their profession when they grow up.

Working in a team it helps student to forget the problems that they have going on at home or school.

in technology class we have to work together in a lot of ways like for example when we are trying to come up with the exact ideas that are going to be in our mini game. we also have to work together when we do not know how to something and we have to do it together in order to find out how it really works.

This documentary takes place in New York City in 1994 because there was a dance program that was introduced to 5th graders. In public school #150 the teachers where forcing the male students to tuck in their shirts and for all of the students got forced to dance. The students where not use to be dancing but because they will do it too much they got use to it. There is going to to be a competition where the students of this school district are going to compete at so they are really excited and they work really hard. The team finds their way out to make it to the champions and they actually win the 1st place trophy.

I played a game named math lines. I really liked this game vbecause you have to be thinking really fast in order for you to be able to hit the ball that yo need to hit. I think that the challenges of this game is that if you do not think fast enough the balls are going to get all close together that you are not going to be able to move no more. I really like this game because it makes me get nervous a lot because if i do not hit the right ball everything is going to be wrong. Something that i learned about this game is that if you make something that puts pressure on the player it makes the player get more exited. Here is the lynk to this game so that you can Play it too. mathlines

We played a game called ''super chick sisters''. I really think that this game was really educational and fun at the same time because it was giving facts about how KFC treat the chickens. I think that it was really cool because it was kind of like Mario Brothers but it was with chickens. I Will really like to make a game like this because it is very fun and also because it is educational. This game's social issue is animal cruelty
I Also played another game called J.Lo Fur. I really think that this game is really telling the people not to buy fur because they are killing a lot of animals. i also think that this game is really fun because while they are being mean to Jeniffer Lopez they are also teaching us about how the animals are being affected and they even named some of the animals. I really like the idea of the character going around the place trying to save the animals. This game's social issues is animal cruelty.

Crayon Physics

I have actually never heard of crayon physics but now that I have seen the video I really think that is something awesome! I will love to try to play this tipe of game sometime in my life. I will actually like to make a game like this because the polayer will have to making the game for their selfs well like thay will have to make their way threw the place. I think that the people that make games like this put a lot of effort into it because the only thing that they have to do is to really focus in the obstacles.

Google Science Fair:

I really think that is really interesting that google has created a science fair because there is a lot of science fairs that are going on out there and just because they are in another place we can not attend but because this science fair will be taking place in the Internet anyone in the world could assist and compete in it. I can really see my self entering this contest because I am really into making experiments and also because I just really like entering contests. I know that if I enter the contest I will be competing with people all over the world and that I would be able to share ideas with them, I know that this competition is going to be really hard because I can never imagine what the other competitor are going to do. If I take this project I will really focus on aether life science or robotics because I have always liked science and robotics mix together and by saying that I mean that every time that I will go to a place and there will be robots I will always imagine how it will be if I make a robot with science in it.
