Eighteenth Week of School! - Blog #30

Like always, anything that has a link (video, song, website) will be in the post. I also put asterisk notes for clarification. Here you go.

My schedule: Science, Math, Project Lead The Way (Day 1), Student Aid (Day 2), Honors Language Arts, Social Studies

1/20/15----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Science

We are learning about meiosis

Not cool! Now we are using math in Science!

Project Lead The Way

Supposedly, we will run out of oil in 2050

I bet that we will have electric cars by then, and have solar energy or something

Honors Language Arts

We are learning about some people from the holocaust, and these stories are sad and kind of creepy

Apparently, Storm troopers and Darth Vader are based off of Nazis and Hitler

The Star Wars I knew is no more... : (

Social Studies

We have a lot of work, but for some reason I am extremely satisfied with my speed and quality of my work today

Hmm...

Science

FUN FACT #10: Humans share 60% of their DNA with a banana

We had to make smiley face babies based on coin flips: 

Student Aid

So bored!!!

We rarely ever have work to do

On the upside, I get to go to the library a lot

One librarian I actually know really well and she knows me

She even remembers the last book I asked for so she can recommend new books or can put the next book in a series on hold quickly

1/22/15----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Project Lead The Way

We get to use brand new computers! The rest of the school has computers from like 5 years ago, maybe even more

Honors Language Arts

We are going to be reading the play of The Diary of Anne Frank

I did not know that Natalie Portman played Anne in a live performance

The whole class gasped when we found out

1/23/15----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Science

We got Spring Pictures for 'graduates' today

It is just Jr. High people!

Math

I finished the quiz today quickly, so I spent 45 minutes playing Minecraft while listening to my music

Student Aid

YES! Lots of work and things to do!

Honors Language Arts

We got to take a VR tour of Anne Frank's hideout LINK

And that was this week! See you next time!
