This Week In Science #11

 This  is a picture of a cellar spider.

     This week in science I did a quite bit. I picked up plants, bugs and other things for my spider Charlie to help his habitat. I did a spider work sheet on cellar spiders and I actually didn't finish it. Hopefully I'll get that done soon. But I also watched a video on how cellar spiders catch their prey with their web. It was wicked the sight was pretty cool. Umm my partner Nazia, who took pictures on Tues., uploaded pictures to the laptop so we can have some pictures on tour document. And my other partner Ryan did allow us to use his arms so he can carry the tank as we found objects and other things for Charlie's environment.
     I learned that spiders need food and obstacles to mack on to be put in a tank for a period of time. And I learned that flowers will die if they are put in the tank without sunlight or water, and that cellar spiders have a short life span. I earned from doing research on cellar spiders that they don't have adhesive web, they have 8 legs and their nicknames are "grand-daddy long legs" lml. I learned from the video I watched that cellar spiders vibrate or move really quick when another creature is by it, that they wrap a bunch of web around its prey when it captures it and that the cellar spider produces about six wraps around its prey per second. When Nazia uploaded the pictures I know now u can't crop them and that we should have picked pictures that show us getting objects for Charlie's tank. And lastly I learned too any rocks make the tank heavy when I put too many in the tank Ryan was holding and that we shouldn't put long branches in the tank so it won't hit Ryan in his face.

This Month In Science #10

This is the picture of my groups picture .

     This month in science we did a lot. We made a couple of charts with some guest that we brainstormed with on the 4 topics waste, water, energy and transportation. The Human Impact Ins. helped us along the way to guide us a little during our project. We made slogans and drew pictures to put on our t shirts. It was actually more complicated than you think because the only colors that were allowed on the paper were black and white. We commented on a post from Tara and we wrote nice comments and constructive criticism. Umm we also went out in the community to ask regular people how they use, take advantage, and can avoid some activities with transportation, waste, water and energy. We then graphed all our info on a chart in Google docs and we read the case study on the topic of wind energy. It was interesting. And we also calculated watts with Jamie, it was cool.

     This month in science I learned some things. It was actually more to do in my opinion than what I learned in my opinion, but who cares. From brainstorming with the 4 topics I learned how to expand a small idea into much more. And that one word can mean many many things. I learned that when people from other institutes come to help you take advantage and be respectful. Also that if you don't ask questions you won't know what your doing. For slogans and pictures I learned if your picture has too many words people may not be as attracted to them and that your slogan has to match with your picture. And that if your going to put your design on a shirt their cannot be too many little lines because it may not appear as clear on the shirt. And I learned not all comments have to be critical or cruel they can be nice lml. And I learned if you comment on someones post they may comment on yours and that people take constructive criticism lightly. And when we went out in the community I learned people can be rude, they use a lot of energy and watch a lot of t.v. And when my group answered the questions I learned that mainly teenagers go in the fridge a lot and they watch at least 6 hrs of t.v everyday, unless their on punishment lmao. And that I need to stop watching t.v as much as I do because that's why the bills that high. I learned that wind energy isn't known very well and that there is a huge windmill powered by wind. And that people use wind energy to their benefit. And lastly I learned that a kilowatt are more than a watt. And that you can over use a curling iron and that it gets hot real quick if a blow dryer is on for 7 seconds or more.
