Fish Dissection

During the past two weeks in science, we dissected a Perch and a Sea Lamprey. 

The Perch was smaller than the Sea Lamprey and looked more like a normal fish that you would see in a lake. The Sea Lamprey looked like an eel and was long unlike the Perch. I noticed that when I opened up the Perch it didn’t smell as bad as the Sea Lamprey and it was more “organized” it also had a heart. On the other hand, the Sea Lamprey smelled awful and I was disgusted also the Sea Lamprey was all over the place it was a mess and it didn’t have a heart.Displaying Sep 27, 2019 at 8:00 AM.HEICDisplaying Sep 27, 2019 at 7:56 AM.JPG

ETC

This week in ETC we did two challenges. Our first challenge was the make it move challenge in that challenge we had to use certain materials like a balloon, magnets, straws, tape (etc) but the catch was that we couldn’t touch anything to make it move down the track. It was very difficult and in the end, my group didn’t finish the challenge but we had a lot of fun doing it. Our second challenge was the pringle challenge our challenge was to make a ring out of pringles that was free-standing. In the end, again my group didn’t finish the challenge. I think that for future challenges they should make it a little easier.

Saving Fred Challenge

For Saving Fred I was excited to try and use our ideas to save him, and I was excited to work with my teammates because I thought that we would work well together. I think that my group could have worked on staying on task and not goofing off, but I do think it was a lot more fun that way. I also think that my group did very well in working together and that made it very easy to complete the challenges. For example, when we had to put Fred into the lifesaver we worked together to make sure that the lifesaver was stretched enough so that Fred could fit in. We stretched it by using the paperclips and pulling it enough that Fred could fit in but not ripping it.

High Holiday Project Brainstorm

What do I know about my topic? Describe all the details, information, ideas that you do know.

What are 10 other questions I have that I need to research for a further study?
Why do people forgive, Why is it so hard for people to forgive, Why is so easy to forgive, why is it important to forgive, Why does forgiveness matter, What about forgiveness is meaningful, What is forgiveness, How do people forgive, What are different ways to forgive, What is forgivable, Who in Judaism has been forgiven + Who in Judaism has forgiven. 

Where will I begin to look for those answers?
I will look at the internet, books, and people around me.
What help do I need to move forward in my project? I need my teacher’s help to push me in the right direction, same as other people

 

6th One-Pager Summer Reflection

 

 

  1. Explain the five choices you made on your one-pager and how they show your comprehension of the book or what you learned from the book. One choice I made was to put a lot of quotes an example of one is “humans can surprise you. Another choice I made was to add pictures of all the main characters. One of my choices was to use quotes to represent the beginning, middle, and end. I also used symbolism by adding footprints all over my one-pager which showed that he loved to paint because his feet were covered in it. For my last choice, I used words to show setting which was when Ivan realized that he wasn’t living in a domain, it was a cage.

      2. Explain two pieces of textual evidence from your map, and why you choose that text for your one-pager.

My first piece of textual evidence is that I put pictures of all the main characters from the book. My second choice was to add a lot of quotes to really show every change the characters made throughout the book.
