Co-vid 19

With the sudden outbreak of the coronavirus, many were left unsure and were required to adapt to change.

Involving our Rube Goldberg project, we had to

adapt by using what we had around us.

Technology played a major role because it made the changes easier.

It was difficult to adjust at first but once I got into a routine and adapted it all became much easier.

I believe the Co-vid 19 will help us plan and adapt for the future. People will be more aware of these types of situations. Also it helped people learn that you will sometimes have to adapt to what's around you to succeed.

Using what we did at school and build a Rube Goldberg machine at home

The hardest part was finding the right place and materials to get it working

I had trouble finding the right place to put everything and make each run consistent.
