Title: Sanding the petals
What did I do?
Today, I continued to create the leaf of my
project. Because we only had one period to work
on our project, I continued to sand the holes that
were between the leaves. It was quite difficult to
sand those parts since the holes were too small
to sand. At first, I tried to file the holes with tiny
files but it didn't work. The files were too big to
go into the hole. So, I had to use garnet paper to
sand the little holes. Even though it was quite
difficult to use the sand paper to sand the little
holes, with patience, I was able to complete Picture 1: Picture of me sanding the leaves with
sanding 6 different holes by using the garnet garnet paper and sanding block
paper. My plan of the next lesson is to sand the
rest 6 different holes with garnet paper and start to round the sharp pointy parts of each leaves by using
files and garnet paper.
Changes in the plan <gantt chart>
I was able to follow the plans of my gantt chart,
Although it took me a lot of time to create other
parts, now, I am able to follow the plan that I
have made.
Emotions
During the lesson, I felt very proud of myself that
I was able to sand the part that I thought I
couldn't do. This was the final part that I needed
for making my project. If I could finish the
sanding parts, then I could start gathering all the pieces together. I was very pleased that I could sand it
with good quality.

the leaves by using garnet paper
From today’s lesson, I was able to start sanding
the hole between the leaves. I think I was
organized because I could use the time wisely to complete my task on making the leaves. What is more,
I think the lesson that I had today was related to human ingenuity because I was creating a part for my
project
