Pearsonal Blog Oct. 31- Nov.4

During this week in Academy i have learned lots. I’ve learned some very useful info and some not so much. We learned a lot about sentence fragments from Ms. Miller and i found it very helpful because im not the greatest at them. The most fun thing that I did in the Academy was in Science. We got to make crystals and now get to grow them for 2 or 3 weeks. I had lots of fun saturating the solution. My partner was great and I think that our crystal will turn out really cool when it’s done growing. We saturated the solution and did the whole lab on Tuesday and on Wednesday we got to take a little part of the powder of our chemical and attach it to a string. Then we attached it to the cup that the solution was in so that the little piece of crystal was suspended in the solution. Im so excited for what it’s going to look like when it’s all done. I really enjoy doing labs in science and am looking forward to conducting more. In social studies this week we learned about the structure of the constitution. Everyone was split up into different groups and had to work on the part of the constitution that we were assigned to. We had to put them in our own words and take out things that we didn’t like or disagreed with. My group had to do the amendments witch really weren’t that bad to do. I hadn’t really ever read through all of them and found some of them very interesting. Then everyone posted them on Google docs and we put all of the parts of the constitution together. I think that everyone really did a great job doing their part. In English we are starting this new book called "Mice and Men". Lots of my friends have already read the book and lots of them said that it was a pretty good book. I really don’t like reading all that much but hearing what other people said about it, it actually sounds good. Also this week we started a new project in social Studies. I don’t exactly understand what were supposed to do it looks sort of interesting but also confusing. When he explain it to us he was sort of vag but hopefully he will explain it to us more this week so that i can get a start on it quickly! Well id have to say that this week was a pretty good week i have learned lots about the parts of the Constitution, sentence fragments, crystals and how they form and lots more. Im looking forward to next week and to what lies ahead!
