Imagine the Future
“When you were in lower school, what was something that you were excited about for fifth grade? How do you feel about it now that you’ve done it?
What was something about fifth grade that you were a little nervous or worried about? How do you feel about it now?
What is something about which you are still a little nervous or worried? What might you do to feel a little less nervous or worried?
What is something that you haven’t done yet in middle school about which you are excited? What are you excited about it?”
I was really excited to have desert and chocolate milk because most kids love sweats and being able to eat treats in school to me means you are mature and I just really like sweats. I was really worried about all the independence that we get and how you’re not reminded when you have to go to each class. The part I was worried about was the whole thing in general, just all the thoughts about all the independence got to me. But now because we are going into the second quarter I have adjusted to the middle school schedule. Because we have done all but one class I fell really adjusted (like I said earlier) I don’t fell scared, nervous or worried. One thing that I haven’t done yet that I can’t wait for is drame because I love being part of something big and pretending to be someone your not.
My First Composition!!
My population graph
In my graph and all the other graphs the dots should be connected. Why I say that is because things are happening between the dots. New people coming into the world old people are leaving the world. At the end of my graph it is pretty much straight forward besides the little plateaus here and there and thousands of people we lost because of wars and the circle of life. The little hint Ann gave us helped so much. I didn’t really have to change my graph because of that hint because I hadn’t started filling in the graph but it certainly changed the plan I had for the graph.
The problems we had with…
My group had problems with the way the cards described the point in time it takes place. What I mean by that is the way other people described something was different than the way we pictured it. And a lot of the cards we got were about the beginning of our universe and the movie so we didn’t remember all of the information. And we didn’t know we were getting a test at the end of the movie so we didn’t pay as much attention on the movie, but if we had known we would of study and really keep all our focus on the information.
History of the world in two hours
On Friday we got cards that kids in our grade wrote down about the movie we watched in class. Then we had to organize the cards from what happened last to what was the most resent stuff. When we got the cards they were all messed up so we couldn’t use that to help us so the timeline. Then we had to switch group and check each others work. What was really challenging was that we weren’t aloud to cheek our learning logs for the correct answers until we were done. One thing my group got wrong and had to fix was that we thought that the Hobosaibians settled in before the stone age then we realized that the stone age happened before they even began to move around. What helped was that we were allowed to work with other people so if we were unsure about something you could ask one another.
Graphs Of Distance
I am going to talk about the graph in the top left hand corner of story C.
I think that that one doesn’t belong there or anywhere because it looks like it keeps the same rhythm the whole way through. But in story C you have to change the rate of your speed and this graph doesn’t show that.
What I find really interesting is that we were all given the distance and the problem and it was all up to us whether our slow walk 15 seconds or 2… And none of the graphs were exactly the same even is it was the same problem.
My Atom
When I closed my eyes this is the Atom I came up with: Why I put the little triangles,diamonds, circles and stars is because I believe that there were little objects orbiting the atoms. Why I put the rings around the main pice is because I though that the atoms had rings like Saturn. But for some wierd reason when ever I see an atom in a movie the picture in my head stays the same.
My Idea For The Homework Planner
So I think that the planer should be pretty simple, not so over the top. The area where you write the homework you have should be like it is now. The homework planner should be themed so one week the theme will be sports and another week could be art. Then the cover could be one basic design but you could draw whatever you want over the design. Anyway my point is that it should be simple so you could add more to make it your own.
