What I learnd

For the presentation, we had to use tox town. Tox town helped us out for our presentation because it gave us facts about BPA. A lot of facts were very helpful. At the end of our presentation I learned a lot about BPA and how it had harmful affects. In Pete's presentation I learn that Coca Cola is very corrosive, and very acidic. From other presentation we learned that water bottles don't decompose for 800 years. Water bottles are very dangerous for the environment. Using reusable water bottles would be a safe rout. Also the chemicals in the plastic water bottles can make your breath smell bad. People think that your tap water is dirty and not healthy, but actually the water that is from your tap is cleaner than pool water. Water that is put into water bottles is usually water from a tap.

This week we have three different speakers come talk to us about water. For one speaker, we had to visit a water treatment plant. The guy walked us through all the buildings for the different steps of cleaning the water. Only 8 of us went of the field trip, while the others stayed behind and either worked on the art poster, or listened to the other speaker who came in. These speakers were supposed to give us information to help us with our presentation that is due Tuesday. My groups presentation is almost complete. We're nervous for the presentation.

This week we walked down to the Bark river and did water tests to see how clean the river was. After doing the water tests we had to carry a gallon of water back to school. We're lucky that we don't have to walk to the river every day to get water for school activities. In art we started to make a poster that advertises our association. My group is still working on our presentation for social studies. We are having a little bit of a hard time figuring out what we're supposed to present. Hopefully we'll do ok.

This week was OK. In art our group almost finished our video. If the video turnes out nicely it will be sent to different schools for the 8th graders to watch. We also started to move Of Mice and Men. So fare the movie is really good. There are some parts in the movie that weren't mentioned in the book, and there are also parts in the book that weren't mentioned in the movie. In science I think we are starting to learn about the periodic table again. Lake Country school had to learn about it last year, and memorize some of the elements on the table. Hopefully we won't have to memorize and more elements. I don't know what we're doing in Social Studies. Hopefully no more projects for a little while.
