Lord of the Flies-Book Response

If I were on the island with the boys, I would help in every way possible, building shelters, finding food, and making a fire. I would align myself with Ralph, because he wants to be rescued and to save as many boys as he can. I would do my best to interact with everyone I can, because they have family who love them and want to see them again.

A Bully's Future, From Hard Life to Hard Time

I don't think bullying is a big issue at CSS, I feel like everybody hangs out with their own group and do their own things. I am sure there is bullying at our school but I haven't noticed. People will talk about other people negatively, and someone in that group should stop the conversation. I think bullying is pointless, everybody is different.

Bio update

This week in biology we did presentations on our evolutionary projects. We have started our microbiology unit. We did a worksheet on what is living and characteristics of living things. Now we are studying viruses and how they effect the cells in your body. Tomorrow we have to bring soil to class to study the bacteria in the soil.

Lord of the Flies book response

My thoughts on lord of the flies is, it is a slow book, and i don't get why it is the most popular. The boys are going nuts and the only one trying or thinking of being rescued is Ralph. Even Jack is going nuts because he wants meat, and he is like second in command. Piggy could be a leader because he is smart but all the other boys don not like him. The conflict in the book might be real in some places of the world, maybe that's why he got the nobel prize.

Bio blog

In biology we have gone over the hardy weinberg notes, and have started a project on the evolution of a species. We have to describe the earliest ancestor, a few intermediate forms and the taxonomy of the species. We have also done an assignment on evolution, it was a graphic story that we had to read and fill in the booklet.

The most terrifying fictional evil species

The most terrifying fictional evil species would have to be the little aliens from galaxy quest. They were all eating and a injured alien came to eat, and they all backed up to let him eat, but then they started eating him. Also when the humans came out they started calling for the "rock" to kill them.

Since we have finished our aquaponics our team has been testing the water for ammonia, nitrates, nitrites, and pH. In biology we have started a new section on deoxyribonucleic acid on the structure of dna, nucleic acids and bases. Making of rna, dna unwinds and complimentary rna bases are brought in, and form sugar-phosphate bonds, then the rna strand is released and the dna molecule rewinds. We are starting the study of evolution, and have done a natural selection handout on variations between mouse populations on the length of their tails.

Qualities that make someone a survivor?

Someone that survives in the bush has knowledge of building a shelter, a fire, and knowing what food you can't and can eat. A survivor also has the ability to use objects around them to build tools, like a fishing trap. In conclusion a survivor uses objects from the forest to survive.

Writing Prompt-Survival

After we crashed i would go find food, and my shelter would be on the plane. I would have luggage on the plane, so i would have extra clothes, hopefully there is blankets on the plane. Where there are holes on the plane because of the crash, i would put some kind of barrier to keep out animals. Hopefully the pilot survives, so he can see if there is any way of communicating to the mainland.

Aquaponics

Our group decided to do a basic aquaponics system, where the lettuce and basil are floating on the water. We used styrofoam that has cups filled with rock to hold our plants just above the water, so the roots get air. We got feeder fish for our aquaponics system, that live in a very decorative tank.
