Dawson's Blog


We have three 6th grade Science classes and two 8th grade Science classes blogging here from the Pacific Northwest in Chimacum, WA! Sixth graders are learning a bit about Mt Saint Helens, environmental science through fresh water ecology, and physical science this year. Eighth graders are learning about life science this year. Please join us as we learn Science by exploring our world.

Cell Mitosis

Article posted February 20, 2013 at 05:23 PM GMT0 • comment (1) • Reads 265

 Interphase: Cells look inactive, this is the longest stage where DNA replicates, proteins are produced, and centrioles divide. 


Prophase: Microtubules of the cytoskeleton disassemble, and grow the mitotic spindle 


Prometaphase: The nuclear envelope breaks down so the nucleus is not recognizable. Some mitotic spindle fibers attach to kinetochores, other fibers overlap at the cell center 


Metaphase: Tension of the spindle fiber put all the chromosomes in one plane at the center of the cell. 


Anaphase: The kinetochores separate, fibers shorten, and chromatids began moving to cell poles 


Telophase: Chromotids stop at the poles the fibers disappear. Cytokines: Spindles break down only the ones overlapping Microtubules reorganize to interphase.

Form vs Function

Article posted February 12, 2013 at 04:56 PM GMT0 • comment • Reads 151

  Take the wheel for example it's round it's design is so simple yet it stayed the same over the years. It makes it easier to travel because it is round it makes it easier to roll so if you put something over it it would move that object or you could use to carry things for you.

A: I believe that the water fountain has the most bacteria. 


E: it looks like the section where we swabbed the bacteria has the most missing acgarra. 


I: we accidentally put it on the wrong side.  


O: It looks like the bacteria is eating await the agarra 


U:I understand what is going on in the petri dish 


Y: I wonder what it looks like when it eats.

Prokaryotes & Eukaryotes

Article posted February 6, 2013 at 05:32 PM GMT0 • comment • Reads 314

Prokaryotes are all single celled organism eukaryotes on the other hand are cells in plants, fungi, and animals the reason why eukaryotes are so much more complex is because they are able to work together and combine.

Root hair cell to absorb water to dry the soil. 


Muscle cell makes up the muscle which allows us to move 


Nerve cell makes us feel pain and other feelings like that sends signals to the brain 


Sperm cell it's the reproduction cell it makes babies

I would say the second student is right because if it were by itself ilt wouldnt survive it has to be on the plant.

This is our brine shrimp after eating it seems to be alive because it ate the yeast. It also looks like it has eyes too

Hurricane Sandy

 I learned that hurricanes are called different things depending on where they occour in the world. Hurricane Sandy must be really tough for the people in New York. I hope it doesn't cause a lot of injuries and destruction. Hopefully they will recover quickly from this diasaister.
