Today we worked on our access points and the parceling maps. Today, we have finally gotten the main physical and mental access point, done and approved by Mr.Garcia. We plan to put it on as soon as possible. We also created the more open and welcoming guest observatory(a access point), and the majority of our group has approved it. We still need to get it approved by Mr.Garcia though. We also added small entrance points on the sides, near the forests, so that people who enter that way can still come in and access BioTech.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we presented our modifications we made to Mr. Garcia. He said that our idea and presentation was good, and that we should start working on the access points for our landform. So, first we made the pathways for the residential buildings to promote the Tech area of BioTech. Then, we started discussing where our access points should be. One access point, we decided, was the Guest Observatory, where people from the outside can come, look, and observe our society. We also started discussing how lights from our clock tower can meet at a center point and create the feeling of mental access.

Today we found a solution to people saying our scale was unrealistic. We purposely made our lab buildings tall but apparently others think it was to large. To fix this problem we cut out a upper decks or balconies inside our buildings. This shows that we intentionally made our ceilings high.

Today we read more feedback and saw that one critique that kept coming up was that we could make our labs a little more neater. So we got rid of our aluminum foil used for our solar panels and replaced it with reflective tape. Now it looks more attached to the labs. We also considered making pathways to connect our society together

# data[].attributes.body
Today we went over our feedback and made some modifications to our land form. One group stated that our clock tower was too unstable so we stuck pins through the clock tower into the foam board so it would not move. We also organized our feedback to important and off topic.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we did our team and individual evaluation. We also reviewed our feedback from other people. We read all of the feedback and discussed about it so we can make our society even more better. We are excited to make modifications to our land form.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we finished our 3-D Representation and also finalized our slides. We also added even more trees and finished repairing our buildings. We are soon to present tomorrow or Wednesday

# data[].attributes.body
Today we worked on our 3-D representation and added more trees. We also painted the buildings and added more trees. The quad was also redesigned and we added our descision making process on our slides

# data[].attributes.body
Today we started rebuilding our buildings, so they could look more smooth, and clean cut. Also, we made more trees so the space could look less empty. We also started remaking the garden, to make the grass look less artificial. Another thing we added, were benches. We added the benches in the back, so the river and the clocktower area wouldn't look isolated from the rest of the society. We have assigned roles for people to build things at home. Everyone has their own part, and we're working to make our society look a lot cleaner.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we discussed how our process of decision making is going to function. We also made roles that are necessary to our land form such as the departments of treasury, energy, publicity, development, engineering, and welfare.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we discussed our presentation at Open House and planned what we are going to fix in the following days. Here's our checklist:

1. Cardstock rebuilding - cleaner finish

2. Trails to the river, with possibly some benches

3. Extra buildings: more residential, possibly hospital-like building?

4. More natural grass

5. More trees

# data[].attributes.body
Today we finally finished our land form. It is now the matter of adding details and cleaning it up. We also finalized our slides and we are soon to present at open house this night.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we painted our residential buildings. We also glued planters to the top of the roofs of our residential buildings for insulation. We are also adding solar panels to the top of the laboratories. We then cut out our windows and doors of our residential buildings. We are almost done finishing our residential buildings and we are now working on our park.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we cut out and glued the roofs on our laboratories. We also realized that since gravity is pulling the water in the river down to the laboratories, we would need to add rocks to redirect the waters path in between the buildings. We also cut out our residential buildings and painted it blue. We need to soon glue that on and finish our presentation.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we painted the floor of our laboratories onto the land form and glued "glass" or clear sheets of plastic on our frames of the inner buildings. We also glazed the river and pond with hot glue to make it look like flowing water. We also designed and made a glass floor that covers the pond instead of a bridge so people can walk over it and it looks more techie.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we cut out all the parts of our research center and painted them. We also finished assembling our clock tower with blue paint on it glazed with hot glue to look like water. We could not start building our residential buildings on the outside due to limited materials. Next time we build we shall bring more materials and start building our outer buildings.

# data[].attributes.body
Today re-sketched(to scale) on the land form our pond and research centers. We changed the number of our research centers from four to three Another thing we accomplished today was designing our clock tower which has a stream of water from the clock tower to our pond. We also cut out parts of our research centers. We are soon to finish the middle of our land form and design our residential area

# data[].attributes.body
Today we confirmed our scale which will be 1 centimeter on the land form equals 1.5 meters in real life. We also have started on the dimensions of our buildings, our land form is based on Chaparral's Quad but we still need to confirm the scale of our buildings and details put in the empty spaces

# data[].attributes.body
Today we have confirmed our land form design with Mr. Garcia. Our land form is a shape of a kite, symbolizing progression towards achievement. We then cut out the land form, which took a while, and covered our land form with green paper. We shall soon begin to start designing.

# data[].attributes.body
After finally confirming our purpose, we decided to start working on the layout and design of our society. The three main communities in our society are going to be the residential area, the technological area, and the recruiting center/place. We also confirmed the scale we are going to use. One centimeter in real life is going to equal two meters on the board. We have also decided that the shape of our landform/society will be a kite. `

# data[].attributes.body
Today we FINALLY decided on the purpose. We got feedback from Mrs. Strand and got graded by Mr. Garcia. We are now working on the design of our base foundation. We have also been briefly discussing about the designs and the communities. We identified each of the 3 main communities in our society.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we went out to do a design principles activity on the upper field. We learned many things and made several connections. We argued about our populous, and we have COMPLETELY CHANGED IT. We argued, and discussed very, VERY thoroughly on what we should do(purpose and populous). We finally decided that our populous is for abandoned children. We still kept our basic purpose, of helping people using technology.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we had a lot of discussions about what our purpose should be. Our original idea was equity, but we were told it was going to be a challenge. Our solution to come up with another idea for our purpose was to tell each other about our interests so it would be easier to relate to. We finalized our purpose(to help injured and disabled people with technology), and our ideal(equity). We went to get feedback from Mr. Garcia and he said we had a strong purpose, but told us we need to figure out a design for our land form. His idea was to conserve time and make separate designs and give feedback to each other. Soon we will be sketching designs and uploading pictures of our designs onto the doc.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we finished our all of our 3D representation projects of design principles/elements. We also got a informational talking to from Mr. Garcia then Mrs. Strand. They both told us to work on our purpose. So, we discussed purpose within our group and are leaning towards the advancement/progress in technology. But we also are thinking of changing our new ideal from equity to advancement/progress. We will be working on this later tonight, as this change is crucial and not set in stone yet.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we continued to make our 3-D representation. We also started on the Bill of Rights for our community. We did not get to finish but with only half of our group gone, we think we did a lot today(maybe)... We discussed and argued about the the purpose and possible populous of our landform. We even argued to the point where we raised our voices and we were a bit too loud for the surrounding group's liking...

# data[].attributes.body
Today we mostly did the Bill of Rights study guide, but we also built some models from yesterday. Half of our group is gone for 3 days because of camp. We've been a bit more unruly without them.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we were assigned to research some words and build 3-D representations of the words.We finished defining the words but we didn't finish building it. We will continue building at home. We honestly didn't get much done today, we defined and sketched some of design principles/elements/words. We also made connections between the words and American ideals.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we discussed the many design principles and elements. We looked at everyone's phases of matter and truth projects; and we tried to incorporate elements of everyone's projects. We designed some "parts" to the whole and we discussed what shape our land form should be.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we discussed words that had a similar definition to justice and peace. We talked about a common word that reflected both peace and justice. Also, we created a doc that we transferred most of our ideas onto.

# data[].attributes.body
Today we got the criteria. Everyone is overwhelmed because there was so much information we had to process. We broke it down by starting to talk about what justice meant to us. We disagreed a bit, but now we have a better feel for the word. We will research and think about justice a bit more at home, as we don't have another ideal word for justice yet.
