Zones of Regulation


We had a guest teacher come and talk to us about "The zones of regulation" it's about what are good zones what are ok and what are not good/ok. 
The blue is for if your hurt, bored, sad, sick, you can fix it by stretching   
The green zone is if your good, calm, ready to learn, proud you can fix it by drink of water
The yellow zone is if your exicted, silly, overwhelmed you can fix it by deep breaths 
The red one is if your mad, angry, yelling, mean you can fix it by taking a break
If your in the blue, red, or yellow you can fix it by deep breaths, stretching, takings break and more.

100 acts of Kindness #1-3

                                               100 acts of Kindness

Last Friday was the 100-th day of school and to celebrate we are going to do 100 acts of kindness.





  1. RESCUE AND REHABILITATE AN ANIMAL IN NEED: Monday Mrs.Sims brought in a hedgehog from a rescue and we are trying to get it used to people because it is so frightend of us if we can get ready for it to go home with someone by science night and if we can have it ready by then we can put it up for adoption.WE STARTED BY PUTTING IT IN TO A BOX AND SEEING WHAT IT DOES. AND IT WAS SCARED FOR ABOUT A GOOD 20 MINUTES BUT AFTER THAT HE STARTED POKING HIS HEAD out and looking at everybody.But when somebody would shake the table he would get scared and go back into his little ball. But when were all donig our own thing he would try to croll out of the box and when we would go back and look at him he wold drop back into his little ball. 

  1. FIXING A BULLETIN BOARD FOR A FRIEND: we noticed that part of Katie's bulletin board was falling down so we went and fixed it. At first, I was having trouble on how to staple the two broken pieces together. But then Jaedha showed me that the staple could staple differently. That helped a lot, and really got the job done. It felt good to fix the border. :)

3. BRINGING LUNCH UTENSILS TO TEACHERS SO THEY DONT HABE TO USE SPORKS!
Today I helped mrs.jones by giving her some spoons,forks,and knifes, maybe for a project. 




We havent dicided what we are going to do for the other acts of kindness yet!

Celebrate good times- COME ON!

 Today we all brought our electronics so we could scan a code on our memoirs so we could watch other people read there memoirs. It was a lot better to hear someone else read there memoir with expression than us just reading it in our head. We could also write comments on others memoirs.

Chat wall



For this activity, there were three lines of people and four questions on that big piece of paper. The questions were, what caused the French and Indian War, why were taxes such a "hot topic," what was the outcome of the French and Indian War, and what events lead up to the revolution.The whole thing was like a really big chat room. You could answer or respond.I think it was pretty cool. All of the questions had to do with what we were learning in social studies. I really liked that we could respond to any answer. It pretty much helps with our learning. This activity was fun for me.-Aneysha :)

Taser Demo



Officers talking to us about the tazer that they had. It scared us when he powered it up. But, it was fun. They told stories about when they had to ues the tazer. We all had fun, it was a blast!

Solar Flares

http://earthsky.org/space/first-notable-solar-flare-of-2015 ðŸ‘ˆ



This week we started learning about the planets and stuff like that. One of the things we learned about were solar flares and prominences. A solar flare is when parts of the chromosphere erupt like a volcano. A prominence is when loops and fountains of blazing gasses leap out of the chromosphere reaching hundreds of thousands of kilometers up into the corona. The cool thing about this is when you click the link above you will learn about the first solar flare of 2015 and this flare happend on a Monday, you might have heard about it, and if you haven't you might want to check it out!

Publishing Memoirs

                                                  Talking to the walls!


Today I'm am going to talk to you about talking to the walls but first I wantyou to realy understand why this might be a good stratigie for you. Here we go have you ever been publishing and you are reading over it and you skip somthing or miss spell somthing and you dont realise it. Well when you talk to your self out loud you can here your self speaking and actualy here your mistakes.

         So the day before we published we used this stratigie to help us realy here our self
personly I think that it is a good stratigie to use. Talking to the walls is a great learning habit and somtimes other people read your story and a paragraph might not make since. That tiny mistake can ruin your whole pease. and when you read it in your head you know  what it is realy suposed to say so you read right over it.

                
                             But when you are talking to the wall you can here those mistakes!

Celery Experiment

Coolest expeirement ever!

Ok, so what we did was we took blue die and stuck the end of the celery stick inside the test tube with the blue die colored water and sit there for two days and took them out and broke them as you can see. Plus the little tubes that sucked up the water sucked up the blue colored water so when we broke the celery the tubes had blue die in them!

 
This is gage he is now testing his hypothisis!
This is Landon  and Dawson they just broke and as you can see the tubes are blue and the closer you broke it by the leaves the darker the tubes were! 

Here is   Kylan and Emma notice the blue on the napkin you could literally use the celery like a pen!
Look at the peace of celery on the right see the blue.
If you peel the skin it looks really cool!
