Okay, so last week I wasn't able to post anything because I wasn't at school all week. But I will write about what we did today because we did a lot today! We were finishing up our prezi for our presentation. Our prezi looks finished with pictures, videos, and facts, yet it still feels incomplete. I am worried that between our prezi and our speaking that our audience will not fully understand what we are trying to say. Hopefully that will change because on Thursday we will get to practice with the elementary kids during a show case. The show case will happen outside so we will not be able to use our prezi. This allows us to work on our speaking skills for this project. I am excited that our project will end in a successful way.
Our topic of lack of clean water in Africa is slowly being solved. Sadly, we still are not sure if our system works. Every time we try to test to see, it will rain. Although, I guess that is what happens in nature. Also while I was gone, my other group members decided to tear off the plastic that we had put on there and replace it with new plastic. I love that they did this because of all the holes that were in the other plastic cover and how loose the plastic was. The covering didn't seem like it was helping at all but now I think that this filter might have a chance to work. Hopefully with this fixed we will get some results before the end of the school year is over.
Like I said the school year is coming to an end. Sadly, we won't be able to work on this project anymore. I would be so happy to see this filtration system filter water. Right now all the water that is being condensed is going to the bottom. We are thinking that if we tip the filter foward then the water will gather. Everybody really only has about until Friday to finish up their final exam presentations because of the show case on Thursday. I think that we are just about done with everything except we probably have to tweak (is that a real word?) a few things. Fingers crossed that everything goes well within the next couple of days! See ya!
