So far in my chicken mummification plan, These are the steps I have:

1: Get your’e materials:One whole chicken, 25 lb bags of salt, ⅓ cup of oil, 3 tsp of cinnamon, 1 yard of muslin, 5 jumbo size Ziploc bags, One box of gloves,Optional: materials to decorate!

2: 5 cups of water and gloves to hold chicken.

3:Pouring in the salt,Put the chicken in a Ziploc bag and pour all the salt into it and if it is too much then keep the rest or give it to a different group. Keep it in there and let it sit for 10 to 12 days and when done take out of the bag. Also when putting the chicken in and out, wear gloves!

4: Removing the organs:Gloves, a knife, some other tool to cut the body

5: Putting the organs in a container:I believe our class will be putting the organs in a vase called canopic jars. They were decorated with some of the ancient gods in Egypt

6: Wrapping the chicken: 5 rolls of gauze

7: Decorating the chicken!Markers, Sheet of all Egyptian symbols and maybe a picture of a chicken? Just for decoration 🙂

And thats my plan of mummifying the chicken!

Last time, I did a post about adding unlike denominators and some of my classmates commented on it. Both comments said that to explain what a least common multiple is and what a mixed number is. So I will be explaining that today!

LCM: A least common multiple is when you are skip counting with the number from your’e denominator and is when you are skip counting, you need to find the number that is the same so you can multiply your’e numerator and your’e denominator to make the denominator so you can add the fractions together.

Mixed Number: A mixed number is a fraction that has a whole and a fraction with it. For example, if I had 10/9 I would have to turn it into 1 and 1/9 to make it into a real fraction or so called mixed number.

5/6 + 7/18 =

(least common multiple)LCM: 6,12,18,24,30,36

(least common multiple)LCM:18,36

I’m finding the least common multiple because then we can make the denominators the same so we can add the fractions together.

5/6 = 6×6=36 and 5×6=30 = 30/36

7/18= 18×2=36 7×2=14= 14/36

The denominators of the fractions need to be the same because the denominator represents the whole number and they both need to have the the same whole to be added together.

30/36+14/36=43/36= 1 and 7/36 

Above, I turned an improper fraction in a mixed number. This is how you do it: You minus 43 from 36 and you get 7. With the seven you have left that goes with the whole number and makes 1 and 7/36.

1. Why did I pick my topic?

Me and Simon picked our topic because it made the most sence and how it is a good driving question.

2. What was a main idea that I learned that I did not know before?

That there are lots of ways to show forgiveness on the high holidays even if there is only a few ways that you know of.

3. What did I find interesting and enjoy about doing my project?

That me and Simon chose to do a posterboard. I loved it because my passion is to draw and write. Also that you can write out all the knowlege you know. I heard it was good for you by it helps endurce your’e knowlege and how its better for you to write it out.

4. How did doing my project enhance or influence my high holiday experience?

By knowing what the rabbi is talking about so it makes the service more interesting, For example, when the rabbi was talking about the next upcoming holiday (yom kippur) He was talking about repentance and I know what repentance is because we taked about it in class. Also,it is just something good you should know. More knowlege is more food for your’e brain.
