Computer Lab

Today, computer lab was VERY important! We learned about how much a house, clothes, food, etc. costs per year. Then, we learned about jobs. For example, let's say someone wanted to be a doctor, they would find out more about the job and how much it pays. I could learn more about police officers and how much they make, which was really helpful for me. I think I could defiantly use this website in the future. This computer was really eye opening on money and jobs.

Computer Lab

           Todays computer lab taught me very important things. I played a game that I thought was just for fun but later discoverd it was very educational. There was a ball and we had to paint it different colors with shapes on it, and we had to figure out how. There was different puzzles that were challenging yet fun. I wish all learning was like this!

Science lab

Today in science lab I learned things I wouldve never thought of. It turns out, plastic is everywhere, in everything we use. We listed plastice things (or with potrolyum in it) that we use everyday, I wasn't even half way done, amd I had 25. Apperantly, 1 in every 35 children in America are born with autism, and scientest suspect its because of all the plastic.We also learned that almost everything in your kitchen is made of plastic or partoleum. This science lab was very useful tom= me.

Science Lab

          Today, science lab was fun, but it was also really helpful! It was a real life experience.We were given feathers, and ones group was directed to choose three out of many things you thought would clean the feather from oil. I learned about the damage oil can do to animals around the world. I also learned what kind of things would help the animal get clean and survive, and which products would harm or kill the animal. I will definantly remember this in the future.

I learned things that will make me a better student in computer lab yesterday. We played games that were fun, but actually, I was learning geometry and things that will be on the CST. I aslo learned how many videos were being uploaded to Youtube every minute (25 hours). I learned how many iPhone have been sold, how many things are searched on google every minute etc. I love learning cool facts everytime I go to computer labs because I can share it to other people and I know new things. I definetly find those websites useful and I will use them in life and the CST.

Computer Lab

                                                             Computer Lab

        I learned many amazing and interesting things today. One of my favorites was the video he showed us of the new computer. Rasberry Pi (a company) invented a new portabale computer. The computer, that is barely bigger than a credit card, is a software defise that you  save all your game, software and other things you would have on a computer on to. You then plug it into a computer and all your things are there, including the wall paper.That was one of the main things that attracted me most.
