Humanities

I would give myself an C for my Model. Three reasons why I would give myself that grade is, one I worked real hard on it. I had to keep on scaling it down so that the temple at the top of the Pyramid wouldn't be so small. I also had to glue all these peices which were really hard I tried a lot of things to glue it and I finally was able to glue it and paint it. Jaylan wasn't here so I had to do lots of work and I have to give Alec some props for helping me paint it. It wasn't that good, so that is why I give myself an C. Well that is why I would give myself a C for the model and if I would give a percent on how much of the model I did I would give myself an 80%.

Life Science

If I would give myself a grade I would give myself an B+. Three reseans why Iwould give my self an B is, one I spend 10 dollars almost every week for 100 crickets. Well sometimes more than a week and Jaylan bought crickets twice or three times. Also I bought to balls of lettuce so that our Bearded Dragon can eat. I also bought sand for are Bearded Dragon which cost 10 dollars and our heat lamp broke, but it wasn't my falt someone broke it in exhibition, Also I always feed the Bearded Dragon outside its cage so he can catch the crickets and feel more comfortable . Well that is why I would give myself a B and if I would give myself a percebtage of what I did for my organism, I would give myself an 80%.

May 24, 2007: Thursday

Today is Exhibition and we need to get prepared, so we spend a lot time preparing for exhibition. We also had to fill out this sheet full of information about all our organisms and all of our civilizations which took about two periods. After that we had to go outside and take a kind of a quiz, but you don't get graded on it and its about all the things we have been working on for the past week. Your team is your department and we line up in a line and one person answers a question and if they get it right they go to the end of the line and by the way, we lost. We were doing good at the beginning but then we lost it and we missed a lot of questions. That is all I did at School.
Now on exhibition I first had to stand by my exhibit and talk to people about are organism and our civilization which I think I did good on. After that I had to go present an scenario with Cody and I also think we did pretty good on but I messed up, but it was still pretty good. Well after that I went back to my exhibit and talked to people about are exhibit, Well I did go out once to see the granny awards thing in Mr. Elizondos room. Well that is all I did today.

May 23, 2007: Wednesday

Today I am trying to make my pyramid because I have to have it for Exhibition which is tomorrow. Jaylan isn't here so its going to be hard, I have only done the temple for my pyramid and now I have to make the whole pyramid. Well today I cut the pieces that I made at home yesterday. Some were off so I kept on cutting them and Mr. Strong got mad again because I kept on asking him to cut my pieces. Once I cut them all out I had to glue them, It was very hard to glue them I tried like 3 times with a glue gun and once with silicone. At the end I finally glued it with a glue gun, it took a very long time to glue them and school was about to be over and I had to glue the temple on there and once I did Alec found out that I needed help painting it. Once he was helping me Jaron helped me too and I ended up staying after school painting it and I finished it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

May 22, 2007: Tuedsday

Today I worked on are model that is due tomorrow, which is bad because me and Jaylan are behind and need to still make the whole pyramid and fix the temple that we already made, but turned out bad. So I gave the temple to Mr. Strong to cut more evenly but it kept on getting messed up and Mr. Strong had to cut it a lot , but at the end it turned out pretty good. That took a lot of time because we had to take it apart because I glued it wrong, but the problem was that there wasn't any glue sticks for the glue gun. So we had to wait on that which took up like 2 periods and once wee finished it we had to make the pyramid, but we needed wood and it took us a lot of time to find and once we did we had very little time to make all the parts.So I am going to do at home and I also have to do the extra credit at home because I have been working on are model all day and didn't have time to do it at school. So, that is what I did at school today.

May 21, 2007: Monday

First thing I did today is clean the cage of the Bearded Dragon and put some calcium sand in it and fed it crickets and lettuce. Then, since we had to get started working on are model, I worked on it with Jaylan. At first we had to research on the height and width of are pyramid /temple, so we had used a lot of time on that. We couldn't find it so I started thinking and remembered that the temple was 11 meters tall and the whole pyramid was 50 meters tall. Then I found out how much it is in inches then scaled it down to 4.5 inches for the temple and 20.3 for the whole pyramid. Once I new all that I made a square 4.5 by 4.5 so that we can trace it on wood and Mr. Strong can cut it. Once he cut it, I glued them, But it was glued wrong and had to cut them even more so it can be more even, but Mr. Strong didn't want to. He said that he would cut them tomorrow, So that is all I did today.

May 18, 2007: Friday

Today all the people that were going to make some kind of welcome sign or handout had to go with Mr. Strong so we can talk about it. So me and Giovanni went and Mr Strong was assigning people jobs and me and Giovanni got to make a map since we have already been working on it a little. Today I tried to make some kind of map in Photo shop but couldn't so I help sand Giovanni's Mayan Temple. At the end of the day I cleaned and fed the Bearded Dragon extra for the weekend, so I dumped all the crickets inside the cage because there wasn't many. But don't worry I fed it some crickets and meal worms before I put it back in the cage. So I am going to have to bring some crickets in on Monday so we have some to feed it also lettuce. So, yeah thats all I did today.
