The overall goal of the weight project is to add something to an object to make it weigh more than it's original weight. For example, like using an empty big, medium, or small bottle to fill with smaller objects such as minerals. Other ways of doing this could be by adding beans, rice, pebbles, cement, sand, water, and more to fill the bottle with the weight necessary to create the weight project and use to present the different ways you can make weights at home such as dumbbells to use as a workout.
On Thursday, I had to think of what kind of project I can use to create the assignment. I used two empty bottles for the project. I need to fill the bottles with something heavy to give my bottles weight. At first I couldn't think of something to fill the bottles with, but then I thought of using rice, beans, or rocks so I decide to go with rocks/pebbles to fill the bottles. The reason I chose the pebbles is because, by adding pebbles it can easily fit and it can make it heavy. A few minutes later, I went outside went searching for rocks/pebbles around the neighborhood, I went to search the garage and they are a tons of pebbles inside the glass vase, so I use that and fill it in a empty bottle. I fill the pebbles in 10 1/2 minutes later then I fill another empty bottle so it will be the same weight as the first one does.

When weighing the bottles they weigh about 2 1/2 pounds each. Now I have the bottles to used as dumb bells when I need weight for exercise.
