This week in class we did more research about cells and we made posters about different organelles in the cell (Mine is Chloroplast). This is a diagram of a plant cell. ^ above

This week in class we had to choose cell organelle, My team chose the chloroplast (shown in picture above). We mostly spent this week researching facts about the chloroplast.

Project blog (9/9/16) Scientific method cartoon

     This week we did a project where we made a cartoon about the scientific method, I learned how many steps are really in scientific method and how you can skip around through them for different projects.

     Before we started this project I thought there was a designated order in the scientific method and if you had to skip a step, your question was wrong. I also thought there was only 5 or 6 steps not 9 or 10.

     I used to think of this subject as this annoying rule that every one had to follow or else they were doing it wrong, now I know why it is so important to follow and how flexible it really is when you use it.

     If someone who had no idea who I was looked at this project, they would learn that I do not like to do what everyone else is doing I like to take it one step further and make mine look bigger, better, and fancier.

     If I could go back and do this piece over again I would go back and maybe add more boxes to make my story look more detailed.

weekly blog(9/4/16) soggiest cereal

     This week in class we did experiments and my group did an experiment on "does the type of cereal and the liquid it is in effect how soggy the cereal gets in 2 minutes". When we were done we shared our results with the class.

This week is class we learned about the scientific method, we spent most of the week learning about how to make a good hypothesis and how do define a good question.

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.
