Group 4 reflection

Jennifer :The first plane was successful ,the second plane was not so successful but the third plane was very successful . I had learnt to make aeroplane by using balsa wood .

Kah Lin :I know that making a plane is not easy. It needs alot of patience . I took about 1 day to make the plane.This is making me going crazy but it is fun.

Jia Sheng : My first plane was the lousiest but I think that my second plane flew better and further than the previous plane. Cutting the slits in the balsa wood was very difficult as the plane and wood cannot use the pen knife to cut.

Surapunt : The second plane that I have made can fly the furthest than the first and third plane that I have made. When I add some weight to the head of the third plane then i threw the plane it broke off when it reaches the ground. So, I tape the front of the plane to avoid my plane from breaking.


Skype lesson:
We have learnt from the Taiwan teachers and friends on how to make a plane and how to fly the plane. We also feel happy and proud to be one of them.

group1(reflections)3/10/08

Danial: It is difficult to fix the parts of the aeroplane together. I tried and tried and at last I can fix it.

Cindy: It is a bit difficult to fix the wing. I tried two times but it still drops off. I hope that my plane will be able to fly higher and further.

Kun Rong: It is quite difficult to make the plane as we need to find the centre of gravity of the plane and when I fly the plane, the back of the plane is too heavy and the plane flies straight for a little while and it drop down immediately.

Yue Xin: It is quite tough to fix the parts of the plane and while designing the plane, I sketched out a few designs on several pieces of paper.I took the design that I like and tried it out but it did not turn out as good as I thought it would.

Lim Leon: It was not very difficult to fix the plane but i had to make adjustments to balance the weight between the head and the tail.

group 3: flying of plane

Preveena Jay: I have learnt many things when doing the plane and when flying the plane. My plane flied 14.6 m. Among all, my plane flew the longest distance. I am very proud of it!!!

jieling: I learnt how to build my very own plane and decorate it to make it look nice. While flying the plane, my plane flew one of longest distance. I was very proud of it as my hard work has paid off. :)

Winnie: I learnt that building a plane is very difficult and that i need perseverance.My plane is simple but nice and it flew 13 metres-- the second longest distance. I am sooooooo proud as i did not even do any research! =x

Zheng Yang: I learnt how to make my first ever own plane and my plane could fly 13.9 metres and it was the second longest distance.cool man.............

Group 5 reflection- Plane Making

Jia Jun: The Making of the plane has been a difficult task to do, although my parents helped me with it. If just making the plane using a Balsa Wood is already so tough, I cannot imagine how hard it is to make a real plane! This has been a wonderful experience^_^. =P

Trevor: During the making of the plane, I have learnt many things. I had many problems such as cuting the wood, drawing the parts. After all the hard work, everything paid off. My plane flew 8.5 meters and i am feeling very happy.

Jia Suan: When i was making the plane, I had faced many difficulties. In total, I have made 2 planes . After I had done my first plane, when i tried throwing it, it did not fly but it went straight down and its tail broke. And i made another. It was better after all.

Wan Xuan: This lesson about making the plane is really fun.I felt that going to this lesson made me know more about aeroplane.The Skype Lesson is also very fun, I get to interact with the Taiwan friends and learn more things about Aeroplane as the teacher in Taiwan will tell us what should we do to make the aeroplane a better plane. This lesson rocks!! =)

group 2 reflection

Ng Yunn Jia:
I have not tested my plane because I did not bring it on Wednesday. However, I think that it can fly about 7m. I did not really face any problems while making the plane. Through the skype lessons, we also shared the problems we faced with the Taiwan pupils and I learnt many things like how to make the plane better!

Lim Zhen Heng:
i did not test my plane too... but i tested it at home on Thursday night. The longest distance for my plane flight is 10.1m. But sometimes, it can't fly at all!=)i like to communicate with the taiwannese!=)

Khairul Haqimi:
Last time when i built my plane, it was quite successful! But it broke when I flew my plane. So, I built another plane.The distance for my plane flight is 6.9 m .During the skype lesson, I know what difficulties the taiwan people face. I also had learnt how to make airplanes using balsa wood!

Eunice lim :
Two weeks ago , i built my plane and it was quite successful! The distance for my plane flight is 6.2 m. When i flew my plane for the second time , the tail of the plane broke . I fixed another tail for my plane! Through the skype lessons, i have learnt a lot about the plane like how to make the plane fly longer.

Serene Ong:
I did test my plane that day. Sadly my plane did not fly more than 1m .The minute i flew my plane ,it flew less than 2 seconds and it dropped onto the floor !When i threw my plane the second time, it just broke into 4 pieces .I tried to glue my plane back but it did not really work that well.After my plane broke ,i tried different designs like making a smaller plane and making a plane which is slightly bigger but it have a round at the head.i felt encouraged by some of my Taiwanese friends and teachers through the skype lesson available for us !Although we have a hard time doing the Balsa Wood plane but it is a good experience for us!
