Our cockroaches were alot of things, such as; brave, sleepy, and stupid. Our first cockroach approached the soap and emidietly fell asleep. After he woke up, he walked around the soap circle and eventually found the way out. The second cockroach was set down in the middle of the circle and marched right through the soap like a warrior. The third cockroach walks in circles for about five minutes then walked through the little door we made. So it's a little hard to say if cockroaches like soap of not...

I know that these cockroaches like to hiss when they're mad or feeling an attack coming on. And they are kind of creepy. They look like aliens, and the female has a smooth head and the male has ridges.

I really liked Odyssey! I enjoyed every aspect of it except the weather could have been better. I loved waking up early and jumping into Lake Crescent. And I love the food. And I love the beauty of the world around me!

The snail had food at the exit of the house at all times, but only found the way out 1 out of 3 times. :(

Snails by Jonny

I know that snails are really slimy, small, they are bad for your garden, and they leave a trail of slime that is really annoying to clean up. The biggest snail was 15 inches long and weighed 2 pounds. That's disgusting.
What I would like to know about snails like what they eat and how long they live. And how they mate and stuff. This project is gross.
Peace.

Bacteria By Jonny

Bacteria in our school is everywhere. So James and I decided to do an experiment! We swabbed 4 areas of our school to see the bacteria growth. We swabbed the gym floor, the water fountain, the toilet, and the bottom of my shoe. The area that had the most bacteria growth was the gym floor. Therefor, the gym floor is the most contaminated part of the four parts that we swabbed.

Well, my class took 5 vials and put yeast, red sand, orbies, radishes, and brine in them. We waited a couple days and then recorded the data in our notebooks. After about 72 hours we found that none of the substances had any change except for the pink orbies and the radishes that had begun to sprout into life. My team realized that the only substances that were alive were the radishes and the brine. The radishes were alive because they began to sprout and the brine was alive because it is eggs that will eventually hatch. So environment affects organisms depending on what they are. For example, if you put a cotton ball and radish seeds in a vial, the environment affected the organism by giving it water, and a soft place to grow.

Global Warming By Jonny R

Us human beings are now well into a polluted world. Some people say it's our fault, others say it's a natural thing. I think the #1 cause of global warming is industrial pollution. Because people need stuff, something (or someone) has to make that stuff. Factories pollute water and air. I would say #2 is car pollution. People drive to work, and the car leaves exhaust behind.
But as I get older, I see more and more people creating "green" and eco-friendly things, and carpooling or even riding bikes or walking places. I think we should definitely attempt to save this planet. I have a good feeling we can.
