Diagram of Aquaponic system
We drew a diagram of what we want our aquaponic system to look like when we were done. A aquaponic system is a circle that runs itself. It is like a baby ecosystem. My group, Margaret and Emma D., chose this system because we wanted to know what the difference is between dirt grown plants and aquaponic grown plants. I am very interested in this project and I am looking forward to where it goes next.

In this project we explored the connection between the end product, especially in our food, and the beginning of food chain. Then we went into the abiotic side and listed the organisms that we rely on. For example I rely on forks are made out of silver which comes from an ore and you find ores in rocks and mountains. I think I worked hard on this project and that I have sufficiently completed the task at hand.
Welcome to your digital portfolio!
categories: Acosta, Uncategorized
Welcome to your brand new digital portfolio/blog at blogs.lrei.org!
Your portfolio can be used for many things through out your middle and high school years, including:
- Documenting and reflecting on your learning, passions, and interests, both in and out of school
- Curating and highlight work for your Family Conferences
- In some instances, your teachers will ask you to submit, reflect and comment on work in this portfolio
It is our hope that you also seek to make this a personally relevant learning space in which you curate work that is important and meaningful to you. As you build this learning space, we also hope that you will use it as a way to connect with other learners in the LREI community and beyond.
Your LREI account (Mail, Docs/Drive) credentials will automatically get you into your blog. Here are a few things you’ll want to take a look at:
1. Change the name of your blog. To do this, go back to the Dashboard and click on the “Home” symbol, then on “MS Digital Portfolio Template” under “This Blog.”
In the field for “Site Title,” add a new title. You can use your first name if you want (e.g., “Mark’s Digital Portfolio”), but don’t use your first and last name. You can also create a title that doesn’t have your name in it. Be as creative as you want, but keep in mind that the title should relate to the purpose of the portfolio.
After you’ve added a new title, click “Save Changes” at the bottom of the page.
2. Add a Post
For the most part, you’ll be adding items to your blog as posts. To add a new post, you can click on the +New button in the top bar of your blog, and then select “Post.”
You’ll want to give each post a title, and assign it to a Category. These categories are broken down by class and grade (e.g., fifth grade, core, etc.). This will allow you to organize and sort information so that you can control the look and feel of your blog. If you take a look at the menu bar under the blog title, you see the different groups of categories (e.g., class, grade, teacher, etc.).
When you’re done with your post you can click “Publish” on the side to make the post appear on your blog
