Me pumping air at the blacksmith shop

One interesting thing I did was go canoeing.The other one was making fire poker at the blacksmith shop.

I learned that to bend metal it needs to be at 2800 degrees.

It was different than last year because we got to do blacksmithing.

Beowulf Project

For humanities we got into groups and we were assigned a character from a book we are reading, called Beowulf. I was in a group with Wyatt and Liam. We got the character Unferth.  We had to draw him and put put characteristics and quotes.

 

At first it was a little challenging because some of the people in my group were not very focused, but when we started making the final draft it got more interesting and people got more into it.

 

When we finished, it looked great! My whole group was proud of it, from the little boil on his neck to the charcoal. It was really fun in the end. I learned that you can get through something even if it’s hard to stay focused.
