Last week and this week in class I did my presentation in class. I thought that it went very well. I feel that I am ready for the real thing next week in front of the community and the judges. I hope that everything will go well next week. I am excited to be done with this project and continue on after school.

Last week and this week we have been listening to other students do their presentations. Listening to these presentations shows us how we should present in front of the people that we are presenting to. We can see things that are good while presenting and also see that things that are bad to do while presenting. Listening to these presentations has been helping me a lot and I think that I am ready to present my own presentation.
Over the last week or two I have been finishing up on my senior project. I have been working hard on getting all my stuff done so we can do our final presentations for the judges and community next week. I have been working on my presentation and also finishing putting my binder together. I never realized how fast time flies when you are doing something that you enjoy doing. I am so excited that I am so close to being done with this big accomplishment during my senior year.
Today in class we started our work day for half the day of school. We will be working on putting our binders together. Putting our binders together takes a lot of work because you have to make sure everything is printed off. Once you make sure it is all printed off you have to put it in order in your binder according to your table of contents. This all means that we are getting closer to the end of our senior project.
After I wrote my letter to the judges I had to write a letter to the School Board. The letter included the same information that was in the letter to the judges. These elements included what my project was and also what my research paper was about. In my letter I also explained how I liked doing my project and what I liked about it.
When I got done with my project I had to write a letter to my judges to let them know what my project is all about. I had to explain to them what my physical project is and also what my research paper was about. In my letter I also had to thank them for taking their time to come a judge my project.
My uncle has some new cool ideas that we will do when my presentation is done. He wants to put a sliding door on the back of the trailer. We will put the doors on so there is no possible way for water to get into the trailer. We will then put a new air tank on the trailer so we don't have to keep using our old air tank. My uncle is very impressed with the trailer and I can't wait to see what the new ideas will do to the trailer.
I got the metal that I need to finish the gas tank frame on the front of the frame. I got the frame on the front of the trailer and hooked it up to the pickup. When I got it on the pickup it was ready to take to my uncles to surprise him with the new trailer that he had never seen before it was done. He thought I did a good job on it but there are very little things that he wants to help me with after my presentation.
I went to my mentor's to work on the final touches. We had to put the roof on my trailer and also put the jack on. After we got the jack and roof on the trailer we ran the wire and I had to re-wire the tail lights. After we got this done, we decided that we forgot to get some metal to put the gas tank frame on the front of the trailer. We then figured out that we needed one more day to finish the trailer. At the end of the day we had just the gas tank frame to finish.
Last time I worked on my trailer I found out that I wasn't able to finish it that day because I ran out of the materials that I needed to finish it. Since my mentor goes to other shops almost every day, he said that he would get the material that I needed and take it back to his shop so we could finish my project. We only needed some flat sheets of metal to make a roof out of and also some 5 inch square tubing to finish making the tongue of the trailer to put the ball hitch on. After I get all this metal I will be able to finish my project and meet my goal of 15 hours or more. I cannot wait for my trailer to be complete so we can use it and so I'm done with my project and can move on to the next steps.
