The 3D Printer Comes To Room7



3D PRINTER

Dear Mrs Hahn
 
Room 7 should get a 3d printer. The reason why is so we can make toys for the fair, one of the pumps feet is missing then we can make one the perfect size we can also make different tools or even nuts and bolts, you can even make models of your face, trees e.t.c. and you can make the objects by taking a picture and send the picture to the 3D printer and comes out in plastic form.

The 3D printer is basically a printer which makes anything out of plastic that you take pictures of. The 3D printer is a helpful printer which can change anybody's life with tools, hands, balls, toys and it can make their lives better.

The 3D printer works with a material known as PLA. The PLA is in a tube that melts, the PLA falls into a small box then processes to make the object you took and wanted it to print. The reason why the melted PLA doesn’t just slide away because when the PLA goes on the platform and dries quickly so the PLA won’t spread.

3D printers were actually made to change and help people’s lives. The 3D printer changed people’s lives when they were bored or sad that everyone has things that they don’t, they could be tired that they were teased by others so 3D printers could make that thing that the person wanted to make the person’s life better.

Now let’s sum this up, the 3D printer can print anything you can take a picture of, the 3D printer uses PLA, and it can help others lives  so now you now know why we urgently  want a 3D printer.            
 P.S we will give you time to think about it.

This boy didn’t have a hand so they used the 3D printer to make him one and now he enjoys his life with his new hand.


We had some visitors that showed us the 3d printer, their names were Roly Smoldon and Alan Jennings they showed us what you can make out of the 3D printer this what we saw.

Science Week 2014



Science Week 2014
This week, we did an experiment with milk, dish washing liquid and food colouring. What we did, was we put some milk into a bowl, added four different colours of food colouring, got a cotton wool bud that had been dipped in dish washing liquid and placed it into the middle of the bowl. The reaction was, that the food colouring was pushed to the sides of the bowl and started to mix together. We kept our cotton wool bud in the centre for a long time, and it created a flower like pattern. We found, that if you placed the cotton wool bud in different places in the bowl, than it creates spiral patterns. This is an excellent experiment that you can try out at home with just what’s inside your pantry.
