Middle School Physics Project

Reporter: Aya Kafal, Year 8

In physics class we are studying about the planets in our solar system, so we were asked to make models of the planets and to talk about them. I made my planets out of papier-maché. I found it a bit challenging. I had to put a lot of effort into my project. It was a fun and interesting project and I learned new things.

When I started doing my project, it felt easy to do. Later into it, I felt like the whole thing would collapse, as the planets kept sliding down the stick. Eventually I fixed it and it looked fine. Making the planets wasn't exactly easy and it took a lot of time. In the end, it was all worth it.
