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

TeAm GrEen!!!!

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

during the experiment that we just had to create and do i learned a lot. starting off with that it is almost imposaible to have an experiment with no comfounding variable and i did not know that before i actually created and disscused all the different possiblilties. for example you can have like the way you speak the time of day the light ect. But i think we got pretty close. that is pretty much the biggest thing that i learned exexpect the a different material effects the cockroches leg strenth

five things that i learned about science in the real world



1. I learned how my body heals it self after i get a cut ,through mitosis



2.i learned how a remote on a television works.

3. also i learned how important tress and plants are how they give off oxegeyn

4. also i saw how when it is hot out all of my basketballs that are lying in the sun gets pumped up because it expands.

5. last in the car when it is dark out the sencer auto maticly puts the lights on.

this week in science was a very long big and gross week. because on Monday he told us that we had to hold and observe cockroaches so i thought that it would be easy and fun but the cockroches are very hard to observe and hard to pick up because there legs are really strong, unfortuatley for me when i picked him up he went to the bathroom all over my hand. So for the rest of the week we wwhere basiclly trying to find new things about them. Last at the very end of the week we had our test which was not to bad if you new your stuff but if you didi not study it could of been difficult. the test was no surprise of what was going to be on it it was just like the study guide. So i wondeer what we are going to do today peace out!!!!!
