~~Morning~~

• We generated ideas for making a case that would protect the inside of a battery charger
• we brainstormed a bunch of problems a batter charger would have without a case so we can think of a way to design the case to be of benefit
• After we drew 4 possible designs on paper and discussed the advantages to the designs
• We examined all the possible dangers of not having a case for phones
• we measured how big the case would be for the battery charger

~~Afternoon~~

• We learned how to scale measurements to half inch scales and one sixteenth scale inches
• we took out or sketches and scaled our measurements to half inches
• we looked at the model that Andrew made
• we practiced scaling different measurements
  
• scaling is when you take a fraction measurement and scale it to make it equivalent to a foot
