Tuesday, April 16th

Today, I went to Ms. Piercy and unfortunately, she said that there was a safety concern with the whack-a-ball. The problem was that the ball was small enough to hit someone right in the eye. Also, the outer layer of the whack-a-ball was made of rubber. Ms. Piercy was worried that it might snap and hurt someone.  To eliminate the safety concern, Ms. Piercy suggested that we make the whack-a-ball larger and use a different type of an outer coating, Later, I mentioned this to William and we discussed about what to do, We need something soft and easy to work with for the extra filling. At first we decided to just add more newspaper, but it seems too rough, and it doesn't look too good. Then, I got the idea of using socks: soft and flexible. We could just stretch it over the current whack-a-ball. Now, we still need to decide on the outer coating.
To cope with these technical difficulties, we decided to extend our deadline by a week.
