Kenya is threatening to close the worlds biggest refugee camp if they close it there will be no place for refugees to go.Kenya does not have enough resources/money to keep the refugee camp going.
Yes because we all tried coming up with a solution to solve the crisis in Africa I think we did come up with a solution that could work.
Biggest challenge is countries in Africa getting extra money to help Kenya with the camp.The reason countries would help is because some countries might not be able to take anymore refugees in so they give money to help the situation in Kenya.
I enjoyed the debate we had and discussion about the crisis/problem going on.
I thought it was cool when the airplane came down and scared everyone.The movie was all around good.The movie is inspiring to make you want to try things.
I think sometimes we doubt God. We don’t think he can help us with a problem or question.If we have questions or fears we must give them to God. God can help us out God is always there for us.There is nothing in this world that can make God love us more or less.We look at all the crime and conflict in the world asking God to take it away.
My visual is a tool box because it’s good when we are using it’s nice to have but when we are not using it it is just there. I see that as the conflict and doubt in the world while we are doing other things we don’t think about God. We don’t say I’m going to pray while you’re hanging out with friends or playing at game of football.
Call
God has made many famous promises. An example is that he said he will never flood the world again.He told Noah to build a boat, not just any boat a boat that would hold many people.He needed to get all the people and animals on this boat.When God makes promises he keeps them.When God calls us to do something we do it.I think there is a lot of temptations in this world it could be hard to respond to God. For my visual I did a glass of water because God flooded the earth destroying everything.God promised he would never flood the world again.This means to me God wants to restart without sin in the world he fight Satin everyday. This is my visual because it reminds me of the flood when I drink water.It also reminds me of how strong God is.
When Moses and Israel were at Mt.Sinai, Moses went to Mt.Sinai while Israel stayed and waited for him to return.Israel thought that Moses was taking longer and would not return.Aaron from Israel stood up and said take your jewelry and gold.Then they made a cafe and worshiped the cafe instead of God.Once God found out he was furious and wanted to destroy them.But them moses found out and stopped God from that. I was wondering why Israel didn’t trust moses to return from Mt.Sinai.My visual is a picture of the smoky mountains The smoky mountains remind me of Mt.Sinai.I took this image when I went to Tennessee over christmas break of 2015.
Names
Some of God’s names are EI,Creator,yhwh and relational God.I Look at God as yhwh which means caring.I see God as yhwh because he is always caring and looking out for us.There’s nothing that can make God love us anymore than he already does.We are all equal in God’s eyes whether it’s people with disabilities or different color skin.An example of this is when God flooded the world he warned Noah to build a ark.My visual is a lighthouse because God is always watching out for us caring for us.
Symbol of the Lamb
God makes covenant to david and Jesus is the light.Jesus is the light in all the darkness in the world.Jesus is the flashlight in the night.I see darkness all around the world bigger things as like crimes but even smaller things such as bullying and gossiping.We must follow God to the right way otherwise we might fall short.God’s way isn’t always going to be easier there will be obstacles like there is in life.I took this picture of my our lamp at our cabin for my visual because jesus is the light in our darkness.He is the good in our bad.
Sent to Promised Land
We have to trust God and know he is there.Israel trusts God we shall not worship other idols.We have to trust God with our lives and know he is there.If we do not trust in God that does not mean he will not help us.If someone in our family is sick we must lift that person up to God and pray for them.We can’t just sit around and wait for God.I chose to take this picture because I think we have to pray more and things we are struggling with we should lift up to God not do them on our own.
Slavery/Salvation
God brings israel out of slavery in Egypt.We need to realize there are worse things going on around the world.Some people think they are having a bad day people are slaves and others are starving.People think that all the people in less developed countries are either poor or slaves which is not true.I have thought this for a while also i thought people who did not live in more developed countries were poor or slaves.I took this picture to represent people in need people who need more money to live.A lot of people don’t give money to these people for the reasons of they might be scamming or using that money to buy alcohol.
Covenant
Conditional covenants are based on certain obligations like a agrement with 2 parties.Unconditional is a law or promise that can not be broken.When God said he will never flood the world again that was an unconditional covenant.God is there and will never lead our side.He is with the people that don’t believe in him.He loves everyone the same even some people who have made questionable choices. I choice this visual because when you get married you take vows which is a promise from one to another
We made a Xylophone out of pvc pipe it works very well there are 6 tubes that you blow gently threw.It works by gently blowing threw each of the 6 tubes across making different sounds because there are different size tubes.Some challenges for this instrument were the measurements of each tube.
For a week all the 7th Graders were put into groups of 3 or 4 We had one job.To find out why Mrs.Vanbysums room echoes.We found out that she didn’t have any furniture of paintings.So we plan to add pillows and canvases.This project was so much fun because it was all class time and it was a lot of teamwork to get it done.I learned how to prevent echo.You just add furniture and other items around the room.
By stealing our needs and farming crops. But while running low on room to feed our people we conquer other cities.Our education is fighting to and protecting we were not allowed to go on to do more school once we were done we were done. If a baby was not appearing to be strong or healthy we will leave it to die on a hillside.Around here it is super easy we steal when we need something. If we feel nervous about somebody attacking, we attack them or build a wall for protection.Our power was in the hands of a few people usually the most wealthy or the most important , and more important decisions were made by The Council of Elders.The Council of Elders is a group of men usually over the age of 60 that make the most important decisions. With slavery everywhere men and women are treated almost the same.But slaves here are free to speak but could not own any property.We live as Spartans.
In our group of 4 we worked well and hard but we had times were we could not concentrate we were all laughing and telling jokes.But thats how I learned more about my group.There was also times were we struggled with something where we wanted to do something our none of us wanted to do something.I learned from that that we were all the same and liked to do the same thing if i didn’t like something or someone didn’t like something none of us would . But we ended up doing it as a group so we would all pitch in here in there .We made it to the last week it was a 2 day week because of thanksgiving we had all day Monday to work and we had a lot to get done we were doing Religion and government of Egypt.So we decided that each of us was going to make something on our computer our bring in something. Jonathan brought in a Lego Pyramid,I brought in Flat Bread Cole and Miles made a keynote and poster.It all worked out on Tuesday we all brought in our things we made and showed them to each other I was really impressed that our group got everything done how I thought at the beginning.Was we were going to horse around the entire time and get nothing done.It turns out with my group of 4 we got a lot done.If your friends it makes it easier.
Right now I am learning about algebra.I am nearly finished with algebra on Chapter 2. Here is a equation 2=n-5 I got the answer by 2+2 =n then I added 5+2 =7 n=7 I have enjoyed learning about algebra and how to do it.Its been challenging this weak add big number to get a algebraic expression.
Our RollerCoster we built was fun. our group was me/Bret,Katelyn, Jake,Bradley and Isaiah. this was a RollerCoster for a marble on March 28. and the materials we used was foam pipe, insulation, marble and tape. This was a very fun project me did for the entire afternoon. the sad part was we had to destroy it when we were done.So people can get through the commons. This was my 2nd favorite project first was market day. I hope all the 4th graders and under get to do this ing 5th grade this was so much fun!
How the Revolutionary war begun. I think it was mostly The Boston Tea Party
1773 when the Colonists dumped the tea that the british brought to them King George was angry when he heard what happened to all the tea. but when the colonists tipped the tea off nothing else was touched but the tea. Of course except 1 other thing a handle on a door was broke cause they broke it to get to the tea.
The other reason
Battles of Lexington Concord
1775 When the british sent troops to capture Sam Adams and John Handcock
