Roadkill Analysis

In my school (Rye Junior High) we do a road kill project in 7th grade. For my project I decided find (out our information) what year had the most road kill for 8 weeks. Also, when I was done with that I am going to figure out y this was like that. For example if there were a lot of road kill there was a increase of animal population, people moved here, they tore down some forests, or big tourist year. A couple reason that there is not a lot of road kill would be dieses, or low population.
During this project I discovered that in 2005 there was not a lot of road kill. This might be because our data was incorrect or that was a drop in population. But it was neither the reason there was not a lot because that was one of the hottest years on record so the animals stayed in one spot so that they could stay cool. And the road would be extremely hot from the sun. This might have affected this year’s road kill but it didn’t because it was too much time for this year to be effected by it.
In 2002 and 2004 there was a lot of road kill (more than 70). This was probably because there was a raise in population so that there were more animals were crossing the street. Also the animals would need to find more recourse because of the increase in population causing them to need to cross the street more than usual. What do you think is the cause?
I think that next year it is going to go down because the road kill has been going up the past couple years. Meaning that the population would go down so fewer animals were going near or on the street.

Seed Packets
By: Carter Madden
In our Language Arts class we read the book Seed Folk by: Paul Fleischman. It was about people living in Cleveland and their story about a garden that somehow changed their life or gave them a chance to make friends. It all started in a vacant lot were a little girl planted lima beans in remembrance of her father .Such as one of the character’s story was about how he messed up with a girl so he started to grow her favorite vegetable (tomatoes) in the garden which was right outside her window. When we finished the book we made seed packets. One of the seed packets had to be a character from the book then one could be like an animal or person etc. I did my dog. Her name is Lola. She is a small but fierce dog. She loves to play and chase my cat and other dogs. Sometimes she links she is a bigger dog it is really funny. Also, I picked Curtis because I thought it was nice and thoughtful that he planted his girlfriend’s favorite vegetable for her, and he took his friends joke. He went from the nickname ceps to tomato.

Acid Rain is a bad thing it can hurt animals. One of the causes of acid rain is the power plants. That is a cause of acid rain because it burns fossil fuels like coal or oil. Another cause of acid is cars. Cars cause acid rain by polluting the air. Then it goes up and goes though some moisture then the sun hits it and then it rains and u have acid rain.
One solution for acid rain is to not drive as much or carpool. Or bike. Or walk. Another way is to not use so much power like turn off the power for an hour or something. There are so many ways that we can cut down acid rain.

I'm attracted to you like high pressure to low pressure.
When I see you the air is sucked out of me like a vaccum.
I'm pulled to you like the gravity on jupitar.

Did you know that drugs ruin your life? Well it true and over this week Rye’s seventh grade spent four days listening to a sober catholic Joe Flood. He talked about when you do drugs it will affect your life a lot for example if you got hooked to a drug then that automatically takes money from your bank account. Also, drugs are very bad for your brain because when you have beer your brain likes the feeling it gets and wants more than after a while one beer isn’t enough so you get two and you get the feeling then it keeps happening to you till you drink a six pack a day. And when you start young you usually will get addicted to the drug or drink. And when you have a beer when you are young it dims one of your lights which are like little rooms. The first light is thinking, the second is the control panel, the third is a safety nerd, the fourth light is when you jest pass out, the fifth light is pass out, and lastly you sixth light goes you die.
There is couple things I learned from Joe are that drugs ruin your life and there is so many ways to discover drugs. And when you do drugs that it is very dangerous because you can lose so much.

Today i will be talking about Ms.Ellwoods trip to Antartica and what she saw. The one thing that she saw that realy interrested me was her getting to see penguins. And the realy cool part was that the penguin walked right up to her and her camp. But the one bad thing is that this little guy was very far from home so they wish him luck on his trip home.
