BON VOYAGE
So Its that time of the year again, when we celebrate a life of a passionate soul. Over the course of the following week we will embark on a Journey of exploration and hopefully learning.
First Lets Talk About That Name Shall We….
We Admit Its A Very Peculiar Name But With Good Reason
VANKOWICH lets split that into two shall we….
IVAN VANKO
Ivan Vanko otherwise known as Whiplash in the Marvel Comics is a villain commonly associated as the nemesis of Iron Man. Wait what does this have to do with the science day. Okay here is the most literal connection, Vanko was a scientist himself creating a suit that almost destroyed the iron man suit as well using electric supercharged whips. But here is the more important reference. Ivan Vanko Wrecked Stark Expo and stole the show. Just like Stark Expo this is a meeting of minds and we will by hook or crook steal the show hence first part proven. More by hook then crook but you get the idea don’t you.
WICH TOWN
Wikipedia did a better job explaining this so ill let it do all the talking
A “-wich town” is a settlement in Anglo-Saxon England characterised by extensive artisanal activity and trade — an “emporium”. The name is derived from the Anglo-Saxon suffix -wīc, signifying “a dwelling or fortified place”. Such settlements were usually coastal and many have left material traces found during excavation.

The Journey that this project entails is one that will most definitely will encounter obstacles in this journey, and rightly so as the task we have been assigned is no easy one.
How we are going about is relatively Straight forward.
Due to the fact that we are a senior grade we have been giving the privilege of having the entire class together as one team. This gives us a massive advantage as our class possesses a diverse set of talents that will come in handy at various stages of this challenge.
Our approach for the next couple days will be to split into two teams. Each will come up with a prototype of their own on the general guideline of helping the disabled. By Monday they will showcase a working prototype to the class. After a vote the best prototype/idea will be selected and the entire class will move forward with that.
