My Poetry!

Here are some haikus I wrote!

This is why you should study

Geography quiz,

I am not ready and where’s

Constantinople?

Vizzini’s Haiku

I’m writing poems,

And making any sense is

Inconceivable!

When I was writing these poems, I at first didn’t really like it. But now that I’ve done it more, I can compose haikus on the spot and not think twice about it! Also, I actually enjoy it now. I even started to write haikus about other people. However, I have this weird habit of making all my poems kind of dark. I don’t know why.  So, I made one about myself, and here it is.

I write creepy stuff,

Dave thinks I’m a Sith poet,

What did you expect? 

I now know that I have to be really careful when I’m writing if I want it to be a certain way. Here’s a tip. If you want dark poetry, come to me, or just write a poem about your worst fear coming to wreck you. Poetry is actually really fun if you like writing.  

 



Structure Fits Function

 

Heart

Of course, the heart is an important organ, but it’s a lot more complicated than “it pumps blood”. It has multiple systems inside it to help it’s purpose. The blood gets pumped into the left atria from the veins 

 

Structure Function
Right+left Ventricle The place in the heart that is in charge of pumping oxygen-drained blood to the lungs. The right+ left  ventricles are two of the four sections in the heart. The Atria are the other two.
The Pericardium A fibrous covering that holds the heart in place. It has a fluid that “lubricates” the heart in the pericardial space to prevent friction. It has two layers, one of which is visceral layer, which covers the heart. The other forms a sac which has a fluid in the pericardial cavity.
Right+Left Atrium The atria are chambers that receive blood from the veins.

The ventricles are chambers that pump blood out of the heart.

The Myocardium The myocardium of is a muscle heart wall and constantly needs oxygen because it is hard working so there is an extensive network of veins to supply oxygen and nutrients so it can function properly. It’s other purpose it to dispose of waste.
Valves Pumps need valves to keep the liquid going in one direction, and the heart isn’t an exception. The heart has two kinds of valves that keep the blood going in the right direction. The valves between the atria and ventricles are atrioventricular valves (also called cuspid valves), while the ones at the bases of the large vessels leaving the ventricles are semilunar valves.

The right atrioventricular valve is the tricuspid valve. The left atrioventricular valve is the bicuspid, or mitral, valve. The valve in between the right ventricle and pulmonary trunk is the pulmonary semilunar valve. The valve between the left ventricle and the aorta is the aortic semilunar valve.

When the ventricles contract, atrioventricular valves close up to stop blood from flowing back into the atria. When the ventricles relax, semilunar valves close to stop blood from going back into the ventricles.

I made this illuminated letter, but it’s in progress. Sorry it’s sideways. Mabel Illuminated Letter 1



My Fabric Collage!

Mabel FabricI made this in art class. We are going to put it on the art guild banner for the pageant!



My geometric pattern!

It was fun to make, but it was hard to get it all glued down. Mabel S Geometric Patter
