Religion Reflection
I had a lot of fun learning about Islam, I thought that doing a project on religion was a really good idea. I worked alone on my project and I worked hard on it, at the end it turned out really great. Working alone gave me the ability to work on projects during the weekend and also I wouldn’t goof off. My video was mainly about Muhammad who was a huge part in the Islam religion. I learned a...

Science: COW EYES!!!
today in science the 6th and 7th grade disected a cow eye. I thought it was a lot of fun, really cool and I learned a lot from it. I thought it was really cool because when we turned the eye inside out I saw a bunch of stuff like the tapetum which was really shiny and also I liked the optic nerve and the lens, also the vitrous humer was really cool. If I were to do this again with soemthing...

Reebop Genetics
This is my reebop Bill Board Reebop (He doesn’t like people that annoy him and he likes relaxing and lying on the beach for a long time. His favorite food are tacos and tacos, he is a male reebop.)
Our reebop experiment is to learn about genetics and how they work and how we have 23 chromosomes in each of our cells. Each of our reebops had recesive and dominant traits which means that...
Islam Update 3
This week I have nearly completed everything on my religion project writing except a bit of editing. I think that by the end of the weekend I should be ready to record for the documentary and put it all together and be ready to edit it. Also the thing I’m mostly looking at on Islam is how it started and who started it which I have finished writing about.
Biogen Idec
I loved the trip to Biogen Idec, it was very fun. I loved staying there and working there and I thought it was a lot of fun, and I learned a lot from it. The expirement we worked on was to find if a patient of cancer could take a certain drug to help with the cancer. The cancer patient could not have a disorder in the DNA or else he/she could not take the drug. We had to find out if the patient...
Islam Update
For my Islam update I think I am done with watching documentaries and starting to put all of my info together and getting prepared to record myself speaking the info for the documentary. The documentaries I have been watching are about Muhammad and the begining of Islam technology. Thats pretty much all I am doing right now.
Life of PI Review
I thought that Life of Pi was a great book, I loved it very much at times it was sad and at times it was grusome, but it was a great book. Even though I loved the plot of the book I thought the ending was terrible I didn’t like it at all because the end would skip around and I thought that it was going to be a lot better, but it was not. Actually the whole story would jump around which I...

Religion Project Update: Week 1
During the week I have been watching a documentary on youtube and I have learn so much about it while watching it, it was about the historical Islam like Muhammad. I also learned a lot about Islam on websites and the info was unrelated to Muhammad, I also found out what the Kaaba was. Islam is a very interesting religion and I like studying it. I am really enjoying working on this religious...
Meiosis
Each chromosome finds its Harmologus counter part, these matching pairs hold the same amount of genetic info from both your mom and your dad. Then the pair trades genes which is called crossing over. The spindle then places your maternal and paternal chromosomes randomly, on each side of mid line. Finally the spindle fibers pull apart leaving the sister chromatids in tact, thus making twice...
The Scopes Monkey
I think the Scopes Monkie Trial play was very fun and for me I learned what a lawyer actually does and I got to sort of be a lawyer which was fun, but kind of scary. I think in the two days that we had to learn about this trail we learned a lot from it and I think it was because it was because we were coaperating a lot more then a lot of other projects. I really enjoyed having John teach us...
Great Artists: Looking Back
In my opinion this year was not as good as the years before, first of all because Keith Haring was not my first pick, but I started to like Kieth Haring’s work more and more, but during the end I wished we would have picked the artist that I liked. I think that the projects looked good, but I think they could have been beter, I also think some people were messing around when we were making...

Planaria
In 6th grade we started a project to learn about how stem cells can re-grow some animals bodies, like a lizards arm or a frogs leg. So each of us had 3-5 planaria, planaria are like worms but like 5 times smaller, almost as big as the led of a pencil, and we would take care of them by feeding them and cleaning their water. We had to cut our planaria so we could see how they could grow back. We...

I will know when I have met these goals because I will make a list of how I am contributing, and I will also take more time to study and I will know when I have improved on that because I will score better on...
Espanol Música
Despues de escuchar la musica de salsa es diferente de rock. Uno cosa en la música de rock es muy fuerte y mucho motion. Salsa es buneo y feliz y rapido y guapa (aveces). También usalsa tú bailar con una persona. Cuando en música de rock tú solamente bailas solo. Para yo y Sean músico de rock es ideal y música de oprea y country es aburrido. Música de spainish rock es rapido al igual que musica de...

Renaissance project reflection
Our group met our goals well and I think we did well at the start of our project and I think our group sailed pretty smoothly the rest of the way. Our whole group definitely learned how to evaluate a website to make sure it is reliable, and also we got better at our editing skills. I learned a lot through the 7 weeks we had to make our project and I learned a lot about Renaissance jobs, which...

Here is my Spanish project! It’s a claymation Enjoy!!
Mi Familia Reflection
While making my project I came across a big problem, which took away about 4 days of work. I think I worked really hard making my claymation and I think it’s good. I think that everyone elses was good to. The only people that didn’t make a family tree was me, Sherif, and Taelon, but Taelon’s was a slideshow so its pretty much the same. I learned a lot about how to say a lot more family members...

Luge: Olympics
The only two winter olypcis I saw was the Luge and Cross-country skiing, and speed skating, but the luge I think was most interesting. Luge was a very cool event that went by pretty fast. Each person had something that looked like a sled but they had footrest’s that I think were used for steering. Each person would at first be holding on to two bars and would practice thier launch to...
Renaissance project update
For the 6th grade Renaissance project I’m in a group with Taelon and Brianna and our topic is merchants/trade. One of the things I learned is that there were a lot of jobs like locksmith, bookbinder and spy. One of the skills I’m developing is how to evaluate websites and how to plan what we will do in the period that is given to us to finish the project. One of the websites that has helped us...

Science: What are stem cells?
Stem cells are basically a cell with no meaning. They start out as an IMC cell and then go off into another kind of cell. What makes a cell change into a certain cell are hormones that send a chemical message to your nervous system and tells the cell what sort of cell it shoud be, for example an IMC cell can be turned into a a skin cell, then the skin cell would have a more specific role...
This is my Cell Division project it was a little late because it had so technical difficulties with saving so here it is Enjoy!
Spanish Reflection
I think our Spanish project was a great success, I really liked how our menu came out and I also like how there wasn’t one group working on one thing, but two groups on two different things. I think our presentation was a little harder because we had a guest that was from The Gillespe School, so that put a little more pressure on us. One thing that I did not like our documentary for our project...

The Invention of Hugo Cabret is a great book that the Rob read to the 6th graders for the past 3 weeks. I love The Invention of Hugo Cabret because is a mystery with a lot of excitment and suspence. The Invention of Hugo Cabret is about a boy named Hugo who lost his father when he was in a meuseum attaic and somebody locked him in by accident. Then the meuseum attaic somehow caught fire and...
