The young salmon is the only omnivore on the river food web. I know from the image that the young salmon eats algae and sculpin which are both plant and animal. This supports my claim because omnivores eat both plants and animals, which the young salmon eats both, so that makes the young salmon an omnivore.
I noticed that you have to follow every picture and read them closely
I asked myself what can I click on and what is this trying to tell me

How did the experiences of slaves first hand compared to what we have read about in the past? Were our secondary sources accurate to the slave experience? Explain.
The Comparison is that the Primary sources were less described than the Secondary on how hard it was and how painful it was.
What was one new thing you learned from reading these stories?
I learned from a slave’s perspective of how hard life was back then.
Did reading these stories from slaves change your perspective? How so?
Yes because reading what life was like for slaves is so different than what people go through life today.
How do you think that the stories of slaves relate to our essential question of “Why do people move?”?
I think it relates because when slaves were sold they would move to different places even if they didn’t want to.
Why did slaves move? Be specific in your answer.
they moved because if their master didn’t want them they would sell them in an auction and then the slave would move to a different master’s household.
I observed that you have to look at the pictures very closely and you have to think where the puzzles start
I asked for an example, I asked for the problem that said St. Patrick’s Day Month, I asked what month is that? Then we had to literally look outside the box to find the answer.
It made it very hard and stressful to finish because if the timer ran out then we would have lost
I saw that the St. Patrick’s day month was March so I said that and it was right.
The most challenging thing was the timer because it made it so much more stressful.
The first strategy was writing stuff down so we could see what the combination could be. Second, we used MEDA to think about what we were thinking about.
I learned that so many people I didn’t think had leadership qualities ended out having those qualities.
Some positive ideas the Torah has taught me is that there is so much more to leadership than actually leading.
Some negative ideas the Torah teaches me is that there are some people who are such good leaders that did stuff badly.
They could grab crowds attention, very strong, and able to talk to god.
Leadership has basically shaped the Torah.
It has changed the way I think of leadership because I thought that leadership was actually leading but it is so much more.
I noticed that it was very stressful on your brain trying to figure out the answers.
I asked myself what do the pictures mean to answer the questions.
We first started finding connections for the 9 letter word lock with the dino alphabet and the hidden question.

My house has windows mostly in the south but in other places too. This is why my house is energy efficient.
