Hi, we are Quincy and Juliana for our School Maker Faire project we have chosen to redesign our school garden board into a garden poster board where we took a roll of cork and attached it to the board so people can write on a post-it nice things and pin them up on the board. We decided to do this project because we thought that since there was an empty space in the garden, why not make it useful and fix it up.
One of the challenges was that we got cork board so you would be able to hang stuff on it, but the cork board wasn’t as thick as we thought so we had to push in the pin harder and it surprisingly fit but it’s still not very secure we will work on that better.
In this process we learned that you can’t guess measurements in science and there is always something wrong with the project, you have to measure everything and make sure it is all equal. If we had more time we would have made a sort of roof, for the board since the cork board isn’t waterproof and it’ll mold if it gets wet but we weren’t sure how to make it and we didn’t have enough time. I think if we had any advice we would say get more than one roll of the cork board so it would be able to go through the whole thing and be able to stick, also measure everything.
The cost of the whole project would be 15.00$. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qFCv03odS2FsTucVePr8M4Ih_nf7xCmhC1foa6IrXnQ/edit
