Design Squad Hidden Buzzer Failed

Jennifer and I tried to make the DESIGN SQUAD Hidden Buzzer by getting a piece of cardboard, tin foil, double A battery, masking tape, scissors, buzzers.

We took the wires from the buzzer  and put the wires up against the sides of the battery. It didn't WORK! It vibrated, like you could feel the energy. But it didn't make any noise. Making noise is what it was supposed to do.

Jen is trying to see if the wires from the buzzer need to be more exposed. We learned that masking tape works better than duct tape.

I hope it will make noise next week — we'll try it again.

What Bothers Me

What bothers me in San Francisco is that lots of people litter and do not re-cycle. What I am going to do about it is that I will re-cycle, compost, not litter, and when I grow up I will take the bus or bike instead of driving a car. If everyone does that the world would be less polluted, no global warming, and cleaner air.

What bothers be in the United States is the same thing, but as a bigger problem. We need to learn how to reuse and re-cycle our energy like using solar, wind, hydro energy and more. Instead of using fossil fuels. Also we need more cars that use solar energy instead of gasoline. I think if everyone contributes to this then the world would be a happier and cleaner world.
