mabye it would have been better for you to have logged off,because im hard to get rid of.mabye
you could guess who I am.After you read the blog posts you might be able to figure out who I am
so good luck

1. I learned that when you pull one thing on or thought another It causes friction to act on the objects to make it harder to push or pull. When the weight is greater it increases friction and if the surface is smaller whith the same weight it increases it too, and if you change the surface that it is on then it changes how much friction affects it.

2. We measured sliding friction by using a spring scales in class. Friction can be measured when it is pulled back on the object. So when you pull,you can measure the resistance with a spring scale.That is how we measured sliding friction.

3.I learned that the variables that were the same in one experiment were weight,length,time,slope,surface, the variable that were not the same was surface area.

Say on my blog what i should do? Becuse there is someone that i need an answer from and the person says that he/she will answer at the end of the year. But i whont to know how i can get that person to answer before the end of the year.
p.s I'm not alowed to say there name.

lllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Done.

If you whont to get a cart across a floor by using a sling shot .
If you whont to make it go farther you pull back harder.

What did you learn about how much energy we use in the 2010 's? I learn that we used 964 co2 in 2010.
How does insulation help you conserve energy? So that the energy does't get out.
What are some things you learned about being safe with electricity? You would have to have eye goggles to protect your eyes just so your safe
Which fuels put less carbon into our atmosphere? Tree's

people have heard that Broock is leaving on friday the 23 i'm sad.But guess what i might be moving and wont be in this school.i feel sad that i have to but i liked this school.

The energy in a batterie when the energy goes though the wires and then the batterie to I there light the light bolb or motor And the electrical energy is the energy thoughing in to the motor.The mechanical is the ends and or around the motor.

K=Batteries store electricity in to them

I live In Chimacum and in Chimacum middle school in Washington.As in wash it rains a lout hear and most of the time I stay inside because of the rain.Chimacum is fun I'm in Mr.Meachum class and at every trimester we get to go on a field trip.Science is great when you have Mr.Gonzalez as a science teacher.In Chimacum you have a lot of fun.

6th graders learned about the rain garden which has plants.The plants can Handle a lot of water. All of the elementary have seen it. It has plants like the organ grape and others they are in a hole or crater, so the water doesn't over flow.

As you know all the 6th graders went tree planting thursday. We could not go without Jac and Aliinas help.Thank you for leting use go tree planting.Also thank you jesse for helping use to know how to plant trees i hade a graet time haveing you as my teacher. THANK YOU JAC AND ALIINA!

Salmon Cycle:The young salmon fry begin to move in schools and feed in the river. They feed mainly on zooplankton until they grow large enough to eat aquatic insects and other larger foods. Some species of salmon fry, such as chum and pink, start downstream toward the ocean immediately after emerging from the redd; others stay in fresh water for up to three years. Land-locked salmon, such as kokanee, never migrate to the sea but live their entire lives in fresh water.Loss of riparian habitat along streams, rivers, estuaries, and bays is one of the most serious dangers to the wild salmon's survival. Salmon need cool water, bugs to eat, woody debris to hide under, and sediment-free gravel in which to spawn. Riparian habitat along the rivers provide shade which helps keep the water temperature cool throughout the year. Cool, clear water holds lots of oxygen which the salmon also need. Logs, branches, or sticks that fall or hang into the rivers give salmon places to hide and provide food for insects and plants which the salmon feed upon. The roots of trees and bushes also help hold dirt and rocks in place on the bank which reduces sediment runoff.
Although logging rules have been revised to protect riparian habitat, previous logging practices have already caused problems. Sometimes little growth was left beside streams and rivers. This resulted in higher water temperatures and increased sediment runoff. Also, without bushes, trees, or woody debris, fish had no place to hide and little food to eat.
As the vulnerable fry grow, they will start to develop spots and vertical parr marks on their sides. These markings help camouflage them from predators such as mergansers and great blue herons. Unlike most fry, pink salmon fry do not develop these parr marks.
After the fry have developed distinctive parr marks and are actively feeding in fresh water, they are called parr. This stage is generally reached by the end of the first summer. Most species of salmon parr are about five inches long. They feed mainly on aquatic insects but also eat worms, crustaceans, amphibian larvae, fish eggs.The news that water flows downhill, and that fish depend on water, won't come as a shock to anyone.

Yet these statements add up to an often-ignored fact about the habitat needs of salmon (and everything else that depends on the river). Salmon don't just live in water--they live in watersheds. From the crest of the surrounding hills to the estuary at the mouth, a river's watershed is the entire basin from which it gathers its waters. As water percolates through the soil to the stream, down the stream to the river, and eventually out to sea, its quality and quantity is affected by everything it touches. Salmon are affected by anything that happens is the watershed, even though it may seemingly take place far from the river.

Salmon are affected by the water's temperature and nutrient content, by the amount of sediment and oxygen it carries, by the rate of its flow, and by other factors. All the natural systems in the watershed--forests, meadows, wetlands, rock outcroppings--contribute to the composition of the water.

The watershed determines the amount and force of the water in the river, and the material carried down by its flow from higher elevations. These factors shape the river bottom, which is another important aspect of salmon habitat. Here, behind a large log, the force of the stream may have dug a deep pool, where young salmon shelter in the summer and returning adults rest on their way to the spawning grounds. There, quiet eddies may have dropped their loads of silt, creating mud which supports a marsh. In another place, the river has deposited beds of gravel, which salmon need for spawning. Some species prefer to lay their eggs in pea-sized gravel, while other can use rocks as large as cantaloupes. The particular types of habitat provided by the river depend on the larger influence of the watershed.

Salmon evolved to cope with a sequence of habitats found in natural watersheds. In a typical river system, tributary streams in the upper reaches are heavily shaded by forests, which drop large quantities of leaf litter and other organic material into the water. Fallen trees in the stream trap spawning gravel on the upstream side, and create plunge pools below where young fish shelter and feed. Many of the aquatic insects available as prey in these areas belong to a group know as "shredders", which devour large bits of plant material floating in the water.

In the middle reaches of the river, the tree canopy opens up and more sunlight falls on the water, prompting algae growth. Here the prey species likely belong to groups know as "scrapers," which harvest algae from the rocks, and "collectors," such as net-spinning caddies fly larvae, which strain finer bits of organic material from the water.

At its lower end, the river may wander in many channels across its floodplain, providing a wealth of fish habitats in its wetlands, sloughs and oxbows. In these marshes and estuaries, ocean-bound salmon gorge on clouds of small crustaceans such as copepods and amphipods.

All human activity in the watershed affects salmon habitat. Timber-cutting, for instance, may remove shade and large streamside logs that once fell periodically into the stream. Road construction and agriculture often cause erosion, which in turn fills the water with sediment that can clog spawning gravel. Culverts can block fish passage and alter water flow. Removing creek meanders or beaver dams and filling wetlands eliminates feeding areas and the slow-water areas so important for sheltering young coho and other salmon from the raging winter currents. Dams can slow the force of the river's flow preventing it from cleansing sediment from its bed and moving gravel downstream.

Because human beings live in watersheds, we are part of the salmon's habitat. In many areas, small landowners, timber companies, fishermen, environmentalists, farmers, tribal members, agency representatives, and others are working together to restore watersheds and improve salmon habitat. Often called watershed, these coalitions are finding ways to put aside differences and pool resources to help the salmon. These groups work together to assess the health of their watershed, identify areas where restoration efforts can best help the salmon, and seek out willing landowners to implement habitat restoration projects.

Projects undertaken by watershed groups have included stream surveys, tree planting (to provide shade along stream banks), road and bank stabilization (to prevent erosion), culvert repair (to facilitate fish passage--for both young and adult fish), placing logs in streams (to create shelter and deep pools), side-channel construction (to provide slow water areas for winter shelter), and cattle watering and fencing (to keep cows and sheep out of streams). Participants have included loggers, fishermen, agency personnel, civic groups, environmentalists, and youth groups ...entire communities, taking responsibility for their watersheds.

have a great week and a happy day on friday.And spend time whith your famly and friendsthat you love and care.For but remember that thanksgiving is a time to thank others for what they do for you and how they affected you in your life.Not olny for the food but for the time you have with them.So have a great day on thanks giveing.But remember if you are going to give a comment say what you did on thanksgiving and thats all for now and see you guys latter bye.

This is a song I hade to make for are water cycle progeced.
Hope you like it.

How we scored our creek is we checked how much points each bug was worth. We also checked what category each bug was in. The category were tolerant,very tolerate,intolerant, very intolerant.We scored for Chimacum creek: 16 in very intolerant, 0 in intolerant, 2 in tolerant, 3 in very tolerant. But yellow jacket creek scored 25 but we don't know what numbers they got in each category.

This is the score that yellow jacket it's 25 and are chimacum creek got 21 how we got these scores is by checking of the ones we had in this little cup that we used a microscope to see what they were.

this is a mayfly larva.

This is what we found from chimacomcreek.

Did you know that we have bin pollution the ocean for a very long time. This is what water pollution is it's oil leaks or sewage.What is pollution it's contamination of water bodies.The seven types of water pollution is:Surface water pollution: Surface water is the resources of the Earth they are found on the core of the earth. Next is oxygen depleting. Is when other animals groundwater start to make more and other animals will not get enough oxygen as they need to survive. Then is Ground water. If this water gets polluted it is called ground water pollution. It's also water that we use for wells. Therese also Nutrients. It's plant growth and development. Microbiological
bacteria viruses protozoa these can make the water polluted.Suspended matter. It makes a thick silt at the bottom of the water this is harmful to life. Chemical water pollution. Chemicals in water make the water get grows and sticky. This is what some of the consequences of water after it has become polluted.sewage and waste-water. It can cause diseases such as diarrhea having sewage in water makes are water a waste land of brown water. Marine dumping. It causes animals to get rings on there necks and making them not breath and die. Industrial water and water pollution.It produces pollutant that are harmful to people and the environment. Oil pollution. Oil leaks are a hazard because it makes diseases and animals to die and suffer. What can be done to improve the quality of water after it has become polluted.Ozone waste water treatment.The generoters oxygen into ozone by ultraviter radiation. Denitrification. This in turn stops any ground water from being contaminated with nutrients. Industrial water treament. Sewage goes through a number of chemicals and chemical processes to reduce the amount and toxicity of the waste to help it make all the chemicals swishe. Septic tanks and sewage treatment. Septic tanks are usually used to treat sewage from an individual buildings. What are some actions that can be done to help prevent water from becoming polluted. Turn off taps when running water is not being used . have some plants in your garden you are preventing fertilizers.

I have evidence that Mt St Helens will rebuild itself because the rock and ash can rebuild its form again,just like Mt St Helens used to look like.Also Mt St Helens erupts about every 100-200 years.
