Symbiotic relationships!!

In class we're learning about symbiotic relationships. We had to also do a project about the subject. The project was to take a picture in our community of a symbiotic relationship. My picture was of a hand with what we believe to be mites on the skin. I thought this project was very unique of all the projects I've done. it was a difficult task though i finished. I can't wait to get my grade back!

Ball on Mars!

Fredrik Bruhn, the CEO of Ångström Aerospace Corporation has designed a better more mobile rover for mars. Unlike other rovers this one almost never gets stuck has fewer motors and never flips over! "The beauty of the system is it needs very little energy to go around rocks, so unless you're landing on a surface that looks like a bed of nails, it should be fine," Bruhn says. Bruhn says he can make four mars balls for as little as 6 milion!

Who Says Boards Don't Have Brains?

The new school year has started! And our class has been privleged to use a brand new piece of technology. A Smart Board!! A smart board is a dry erase board computer touch screen. It's amazing! The smart board has little plastic marker like tools and when you pick one up you start writing. When you finish writing you can tap it and recognize it into text. If you make a mistake it also has an eraser too! Since our board is new it gets a little off. Then you press the question mark button and press re-calibrate then tap the points on the screen.to make it on screen. They're also a smart board in my math class which is why i know so much about it. Smart boards is making learning fun in all classrooms!!

Math Is...

Over this year I have learned many things to do with mathmatics. This has changed my views on things to do with math. To me math is solving numeral problems. Like say "I need to now how many people are going to be here when these two people come" do x+2=x. Math is also everything because everything can be related to a problem!

The things that happen in our region room

Today in our room we succesfully completed our backborad for east asia. When we finished we were assigned to make a dragon. So we went to the art room for supplies we got a sheet of paper the size of the wall. We asked a friend to draw the dragon head. It was very difficult but our friend pulled it off all that was left for us to do was the body. We took it outside for glittering. It helped show the beauty of the dragon.

After we were assigned to trace a picture of buddha. It came out great. We traced using an overhead projector. We colored it gold and brown. What a beauty it became. Thanks to my team we finished, but then assigned to make our backbord have more kick. So we added flowers and more color. All and all hard work prevailed once again.
