weekly blog(5/22/16) Nutrition


     This week, we learned how it is important to balance different things you eat to keep a healthy diet. This picture shows how much of each food group you need each day. This is important because without balanced nutrition you could get way to much of one thing and now enough of another then you could get unhealthy.

Weekly blog(5/15/16)Food waste



     This week in class we learned how food is thrown away in every step from the farm to your mouth. Every group of people in our class chose, we chose potatoes(as seen above). First they are grown, then they are harvested with a big machine and the machine could crush the potatoes and the farmers don't harvest all of them most of the time, then they are washed were they could get bruised and gross, then they are sorted weird from the normal, then they are stored (as seen in the picture) and they could get crushed or if they get stored in the wrong temperature they could rot,then they get delivered, then they are in the store and if they don't get chosen right away they get thrown away, then they go to your house were you might not eat all of them and they will get old and you will throw them away.

This week in class we were supposed to take some stuff we were going to throw away then turn it into something useful. I made a set of drums out of used cans, a balloon, a jar, and lids for stuff.

Weekly blog (4/29/16) Trash


     This week in class we are supposed to make a useful product out of only things we are going to through away. So Far I have no idea what I'm making but I can't wait to make it. 
     Every day about 143,500,000lbs of trash are being thrown away and that trash just goes 
in piles all around the U.S., also a lot of the trash goes into the ocean killing see animals. And 
most of that trash can be recycled.

Weekly blog(4/8/16)Magnetic forces


This week in class we learned about magnetic forces. Magnetic forces are what makes magnets work. This picture is showing how all magnets have a north and south and how they react. (Opposites attract and likes repel). Those lines are how the magnetic forces would look if you could see it.

Weekly Blog(3/27/16)Electricity current

     This week in class we learned about electricity current, what it is, and how it works. Electricity current is the flow of electrons through a light bulb's filament, for example.  The filament is a resister so that creates friction which as you know makes heat and if metal (or anything) gets hot enough, it glows.
     So this week in class we tested out certain safe circuits to see if they would work or not and why.
