this week in science we did a lot of things luike in the begening of the week we were thinking waht would happen if we shine light trhough water or glass. after going on the computer and looking at this experiment we saw that whenm light hits glass or water then it has a slight curve to it. we also did our own little experiment were we wshined the light through the glass or water and marked it on a board with a dot. after that we took the light and shined it regularly and we saw that the dot had moved slightly to the left. So later on to this week we were talki9ng and disscusing about this. we also predicted wrong we thought that the light would bend up. bend up meaning up towards were it was oppsoed to but it bended down ward.

this week in science was important. we had to experiment our hyoithesis on how we all think that when you shine the beem in the mirror it reflects on the same angle. the way that we tested this was we got a protractor and put it upward on a mirror at 90 degrees and shined the light on and angle then saw if it reflected on the same one. Bryan and i did not like this experiment because we thought it would be better too put the laser on the mirror and claped the chalk erasers so we can see the beam clear. when we saw the angle and the beam clear we tryed to take a picture of it but that faild because we could not get a good shot of it. we decided to go back to the originasl experiment which was a lot eaiser. afeter i finesd that experiment the results matched the hypothesis .

this week in science we continued to learn and experimaent more on light. in the bigginig of the week we noticed that when the light hits the mirror you can bearly see tyhe dot on the mirror so mafter noticing that we pridictied and experimanted more and more on this. the experiment was to see when we shin the light in different objects if it has the same size brightnees and also reflectivness. we made a chart and then we recorded it on a scale on to one to five. our groups predic tion was that on lighter colors like white threr is more reflectivnees and on darker colors like black there is more absobstion. also early in the week we had a quiz which i though was fairly easy if you wrer paying attention in class. that wraps it up.

this week in science we started to learn how the laser pointer works and also the basics of light. The first question that Mr.finley gave us was how does the dot on the laser pointer move around. is it magic no we learned that the way the dot moves around is by a beam that shoots out of the tip of the laser. we figuerd this out by, when we claped two chalk erasers with chalk on them and shot the laser in that area we can easily see the beem the moves the light. this does not only work with chalk dust we saw it works with a smoke machine and also sprinkles of water so that lead me to believe that sny flaky thing is going to make the beem show clealy until it hits a soild object. after we were done with the laser pointer we moved on to light bulbs. we were not just focusing on the light bulbs we were mostly focusing on the billions and billions of rays that the light bulb lets out. we new it was such a big number of rays because were ever we stood in the sight of the light we are going to see light from the rays. also the power of the rays is very large because when we covered it with tap or socks lol it did not effect it too much.. that covers this week in science

This week was an important and very long week in science. To start things off on monday i had to finish the documentarys which was very interestion, even tho i dont believe in that. All of the viedos where about the different places and other things that our ''ancestors'' were. A little tip foe people that are just going in to that group is dont pay antention to all of the jobs that people had and worrie and write more notes of what the apes did and how they survived. Later in the week I changed groups which right now for me is some what confusing because i missed a day of school but my friends helped me cath up. In this group we are basicly grouping different things and learning what the inportance is of having a grouping skill. well that was my week bye.

this week in science weekwe did a lot of things and also learned a lot. Starting off with reading how evolution started with Darwin in galapodos(sory about speeling) it was a very interesting article on how he tested with iguanas. So later in the week we had a quiz on all that we were going through it was not to bad if you took notes and paid attention. it was all about evolution and genetics that help the creature. for example when we were studting iguanas the positives where that it blends in to pretect from predetors and clwas for climbing and ect. so this was a packed week that was good.

this week in science was no the best week of themarking period but we did somethings. it was no the best because we had no on really to ask questions to that knows science because mr.finly was out sick. But the things we did when he was gone was looking at simulations of guppy sex and writing on google docs what we think it is alll about. also we saw that in differnt enviorments change quickley the animal dies because it does not have thesame food and it can get eaten by other predetors. also when there is to mant organisums in one enviorment it is hard to survve because there is no room and no food. that is pretty much what i learned and did this week see you next week. 5
