This is a flag i created for Antarctica. Antarctica is not owned by anyone, so our assignment was to create a flag for it. I used white for the snow, blue for the water, and grey for the ice.

This is a graph showing the depth that various antarctic animals can swim to, and how long they can stay underwater. As you can see, a sperm whale can swim to the greatest depth, but an emporor penguin can stay underwater for the longest.

Roses reflect red light,
Violets reflect blue.
Red stars are the coolest,
and so are you.
You're like a star,
You light up the room.
I'm glad you don't nova,
With a giant KA-BOOM!!
When you are gone,
My heart's a black hole.
But when you return,
It's once again whole.
Revolve around the Sun,
Is what Earth's supposed to do.
But my whole universe,
Revolves around you.
And so concludes,
This wonderful poem.
There is some facts in here,
In case you don't know `em.

I drew a picture of a person thinking about the word part cogn, because cogn means to know, or to recognize. For example, in the word incgonito (which means undercover) it is the recognize part of unrecognizable.

Hiding in the Art Room

This is a picture of me hiding in the artroom that I made by shrinking myself down substantially, floating on a sponge in the sink, and taking a picture. Just kidding! I took a photo of the sponge in the sink and used photoshop to put myself onto it. Everyone in my grade made one of these and we showed them all on a slideshow at lunchtime. We all had a great time making them!

My Eye

This is a picture of my eye with a few of the features labeled. We learned some very interesting things about eyes. Did you know that someone's iris is as unique as a fingerprint? Or that your pupil is the most pure form of black? We learned about some new parts of the eye that I didn't know about. For example, there's a bunch of oil glands in your bottom eyelid that squirt oil into your eye for protection. The eye parts that I labeled are just a few of the many parts that make up an eyeball.

The box race

The box race
Every year in March, Loon Mt. holds its annual cardboard box race. Last year John, Max, Spencer, Jono, Camden and I were competitors. We got two Harley Davidson boxes stuck together for our box and got a ton of paint and spray paints and combined the two. The Abstract Splatter-Painted Wonder was the result.
Ahem.
Red and Green and Yellow too,
Purple, Orange, Silver, Blue,
Lots of paints, in every hue,
The Abstract Splatter-Painted Wonder!
Thank you.
Anyway, the box was so big we had to take it apart (to take it up) and put it back together again when we got there. The rules of the box race are: The bottom of the box has to be cardboard (no ski wax, or anything like that) and you can’t leave anything on the trail.
We arrived and saw all different boxes of different shapes and different sizes. We had to hike up about a 100ft hill carrying the box on our shoulders. We were the second ones to go down which was good and bad. Good because we didn’t have to wait that long. Bad because our box was so big it acted like a snowplow and cleared the way for all the other boxes. When the first person had rolled down the hill in their box, we set up ours, and all hopped in. I was in the back right. As we thundered along, we started to veer to the side. We almost crashed into the sidelines but I stuck my hand into the snow to turn us. It worked but it slowed us down. We made it down okay, and we all got out. They hauled off our box to the used zone, and used it as a trash can for other boxes. After that we watched the other boxes crash and burn or get great times, and drank delicious root beer. Unlike John and Max, two years before, who got slowest time (their trophies were free t-shirts!), we didn’t get any awards, but we still had fun.
