Toothpick Bridge #2

Jade started off by making the 2nd base that would hold the bridge up. Me and Matthew finished the other side of the bridge platform and put more toothpicks across it to connect the sides together. Next Anna made the other side wall of the bridge. Matthew put standing toothpicks in the card board to hold the basses in place.

God has blessed me with so many experiences and even gifts. He has blessed me with the experience of growing up in Africa. I know a lot about the culture and how every thing works in Africa. He has blessed me with my sister, who we adopted.

God Sightings

I saw God over the weekend when my grandpa brought over some honey comb that he found in the woods behind his house. I think that it is amazing that God has made bees with the ability to make a comb of honey with all the same shapes.

Names of Jesus

This week in Bible we have been studying different names of Jesus. We were each given a Bible verse and had to find a name in the verse that could be used as a name for Jesus. The name that I found and chose the name Righteous and Victorious. I enjoyed the name that I picked, I felt that it represented Jesus’s divinity and humanity.

Boat Races Caleb Jack and Joe

unnamed

In science we had to design boats with only materials that we were given. After we had built our boat we had to do 2 time trials. After the first trial we could make changes to our boat. Our boat was made out of straws that were use on the sides with a peace of foam in the middle used to keep it a float. The mast was made out of a pop-stick that was glued to the boat. The sail was made out of 2 pieces of index card glued together. The winning time for our boat was 7.71 seconds.

Summer

Over the summer I did a lot of fun stuff. I hung out with some of my friends and did a lot of crazy stuff with them. Camping was one of the many things that I did over the summer. Of all the places I went camping my top two places I went would have to be Ludington state park and along side of the Muskegon river with my Grandpa and brothers and my sister. Some of the things I did with my friends was fishing, biking and doing dumb stuff. I had a lot of fun with my family. We took a trip up to Pictured rocks with my Grandparents from my dads side. I also went to the Howard Miller library and played on the computers with my brothers and sister. This summer I had a lot of fun with my family and friends. I hope that next summer will be as good as this one.
