Were Scientists Fair?

Image
In my person view I am not agree with that. Because no mater which science are you study, even you don't study science, you still can have the opportunity to point out the wrong thing that scientist did it wrong before. So, that is really not fair to Wegener. Because he is a meteorologist so the geologist tell him to get out and don't listen to him...that is so unfair. And the other thing is that I think those geologist know that Wegener was right, but they can't pull don't his face to agree with his drift and they don't have any thing to debate with, so they bring up that he is a meteorologist. What the heak is this?! And the other point is that because he is a German so that think he shucks....

Isolating the Variable

Today in science class we have a activities call "Chocolate attack". The story is talking about China is attack us. They using chocolate to shoot us. The only way we can don't get hurt and don't become "chocolate man" is get on the boat and drive it away. We have those same materials: 3 peace of paper and 3 store and 1 meter of tape. We can design any shape you want but fistful it must can float and carry people ( I mean stopper ). Our team design a canoe. We use 3 pices of paper to make 3 same canoe and tape it to gather. And then we cut off the strow and tape on the canoe too. Is time to test it !! In the next class, we go down stars and put it in a small pond. One group at the one time. First on is Patrick's group, I forget how many stopper did they put. And then is Stephanie's group, their group is the winner they got 31 stopper on her boat. Then is Sandra's group I forget how many did they have too. But I remember my group. Our group go...

Puzzle ~

Image
In science class, we have a activity. The activity is to make the messy puzzle piece together be come a really picture. But this time have some thing is different, the puzzle piece didn't have any cue. It is a blank paper. It was all white. I am with Stephanie and Andrew. They both are good at puzzles. So they can very easy to find out which one can fit the other one. But thins time the has been stuck. It have few piece of paper. And it didn't have demo. You must to us your imagination. But we still fit it all together. That was cool. The other time we have the same thing like this. But is more easer. This time is piece of news paper. So that will be more easer, we can read the news and fit it together. ( But it is a Chinese news paper, so some of the people doesn't know how to read Chinese will be harder.) That was so easy~ I think Ms.Smith tell us to do this things because we had learn about Alfred Wegner. And Ms. Smith want us to understand his Theory will be hard. Be...

Submarine SMASH Day Reflection

Image
1. Summarize -- -- What did we do for SMASH Day? In the beginning, Mrs. Smith tell us that she has a task for us. She sent us a carton, 4 mirrors, 10 peace of paper and two tapes. She wanted us using those material to build up a periscope of submarine. Our group, Chris and me, tested reflection of mirrors again and again trying to find out what is the best angles of vision. After we set up the angles, we cut the carton to pieces. We don't want to waste out our tapes, so we inserted the mirrors into the pasteboard directly. Finally we can saw the stuff above the desk by angling the two mirrors. But we waste too much pasteboard making us could not build up the box of periscope. That was sad. -- What was your mission? In our group, Chris and me, should test the reflection of mirrors trying to find out what is the best angles of vision. After we set up the angles, we must cut the carton to big pieces. And make up a periscope. -- What supplies were you given? Mrs. Smith tell us th...

Life after people

Today we watched a video called "Life after people". That video is talking about if all the humans disappear at once. What happen will it be ? A day, a year, ten year, what happened will the city become ? That is a science video, in my view i think that is kind of funny. Because: 1. Humans wouldn't disappear at once 2. If the mill keep working like few years with no humans, it will destroyed the world. So if it keep working and working, those animal wouldn't have this chance to come to the city. They must been killed. For example like, if all the people on the Earth gone at one time, except Taiwan, what happened ? What kind of things will it be ? Human is an animal that they will help each other. If all the human are gone that will be simple. Because no one is one the Earth any more. But this time is not the same, Taiwan's people alive. But they must have some thing it eat, after all Taiwan's human will get out of Taiwan because no more food on this land. Unti...

Research reflection and the Magic School Bus

Research Reflection : For the past moth we have been researching body system on our own. One good thing I like doing about is the process of research. When we do the research we can talk about it and argue it, so let is the thing I like it. One thing I did not like doing about is teachers are looking at our computer, if the teacher want to trust use to let us do the research, they might to trust us. I think Mrs.Smith planed this way because she want that us know that learning is not teacher give to yo, is you learn something by our self. One suggest I have for Mrs.Smith is we can talking about it first and do the research. So we can have some idea what should we do. Another suggest for Mrs.Smith is let the same body system team mate sit together, so they can talking about the question faster, don't need to run around. The Magic School Bus - Summary - The teacher and student are going to Arnold's body - The story was talking about they want to go to find the digestive ...
