No sabemos mucho de las líneas de Nasca. Las líneas están en el desierto de Perú. Sabemos que son de animales y otras formas. No sabemos por qúe o comó las líneas son hechas. Nosotros creemos que las líneas son hechas por las Nasca. Creemos tambíen que las Nasca hacen las líneas empujando las rocas en líneas. Las líneas son inmensas, alungos son diez millas. Un pájaro es do tamano de una cancha de futbol norte americana. En mi opinion, la cosa más interesante es que comó las Nasca saben que ellos son hecho.¿Como hacen las formas sin ver?

Es mi figura favorita

The battle my group researched was the Battle of Thermopylae.We divided the the work, I was responsible for finding important details.I found my information in the text book and used Google to find a website with URL that ended in .edu

In Module 1 we learned about graphs,sequences, exponents,probability,problem solving and order of operations.
For sequences, we figured out patterns and did math magic ticks. We would study the first four terms in a pattern and then would try to figure out what the 10th,20th and 100th terms in the sequence were. We would write an algebraic formula to figure out any term in the sequence. The math magic tricks were really fun but challenging. You would pick a number perform a couple of operations, then the result would be your original number or a different number. We would do the trick several times and if the results are a different number than the original number, it should be the same number every time you solve it. Then we would explain steps using squares and circles and algebra.
For probability we did experiments and online simulations. We did a bunch of different experiments using dice, cards and then came up with our own experiment. For my experiment I used toothpicks and a compass. I tossed 2 toothpicks with one end cut off over a compass 160 times and recorded which way they pointed closest to. The name of my experiment was Which Way? The theoretical probability was 40 for North, South, East and West. The Experimental probability was 44 for North, 40 for South, 43 for east and 33 for West. We also used a probability simulation online where the computer rolled a dice or drew a card as many times as we wanted it to and it made a graph and fractions.

We are learning about the eye in science, to help us learn we took pictures of our eyes and labeled them.

It`s the second week of School and we have been learning about the eye.We have learned that the white part of your eye is the sclera, its job is to reflect light away .

Science class is awesome!! Mr.Bissonette makes it so much fun! So far I`ve learned about flower parts,equinox(when there is 12 hours of day and 12 hours of night),monarches and much more.
We went out on to the trails and learned about poison ivy and what rootbeer used to be made out of and what it is made out of today. Then we did a journal entry and there was a dried up pond with all kinds of animal prints in it.

Language arts is fun too. We are now making genre posters and I am learning so much about the different types of genres!

In math class we dug up potatoes and weighed them. Even though math is my least favorite subject, Mr Scogin makes it fun.

In Social Studies we are learning about the climate zones and play Simon Says with parts of your body being the equator,tropic of capricorn, tropic of cancer,north pole,south pole and arctic and antarctic circles.

Life Skills is fun too. Now we are making pumpkins and before that we made salsa and even though I don`t like salsa I still had fun making it.
In Tech Ed. we are making ping pong paddles.I am learning so much about how to use tools in Tech Ed!

In Gym we are doing a unit on basket ball and before that we did coopertive games.At the end of the basketball unit we are ging to do hoops for hearts to raise money for people with heart disease.

In Spanish we learned the alpabet and all the countries that speak spanish. Now we are learning about Spain and greetings.

In Music we are doing drums and learning rythms with things around the house. We are also doing these worksheets to help us learn our notes on a staff.
