Imagine the Future

feel2

 

“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?

Getting lockers. Cool.

What was something about fifth grade that you were a little nervous or worried about? How do you feel about it now?

The home work. It’s not that much and It’s not that hard.

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?

Getting presidential. Talk to Larry.
What is something that you haven’t done yet in middle school about which you are excited? What are you excited about it?”

Having drama. My mom teaches it.

 

 

Population

photo (59)I think it was this shape because how did it have 5 million people at 8,OOO B.C.E. I think it must have had a massive leap up. I had to change it completely after the news of the 5 million people. Before it was at like 7 billion at that point.

In class we wrote down moments in history on note cards then we put them in chronological order. My group came over to a different group and found that they put grasslands after brains grow and thats not right because our brains developed after our chimpanzee ancestors came down from the trees. Our cards got mixed a lot when another group came over. It turns out that they were wrong about the oceans turning blue before the first piece of bacteria grew so my group was right. I think that my group did a great job.

Note cards

Our class wrote down facts on note cards that happened during or after the Big Bang. We then put the note cards in chronological order. My group worked very well together when we put them in the right order. We ended up only getting one card in the wrong order and it just had to be switch with the one underneath it. I learned that it is much more easy to work in a group than alone. If i was by my self I would not have gotten that many right.

Graph

imageTo me it looks like everyone put theirs in the right place, but some look not totally persistent with A, B or C. I see two that just go straight and that is not an option because these three problems do not represent going in a straight line. Some thing I notice is that B goes in the shape of a lightning bolt. I did one in that section. I also notice that C is curved. It starts to bend at the middle. And since there is only one for A I do not know if that person is right or not because no one else is there to base it off of. Mine is the one in the top left corner in the section B in purple and black. Everyones graph should start on zero because you don’t pop out of nowhere and everyones should have a line that connects the dots because you are still moving in between the space.
