Water erodes away sediment to make waterfalls, gullies, rills, and meanders. The water can make an oxbow lake by carrying sediment and blocking off the entrance to make an oxbow lake.

The Stoning or Stephen
When Moses was leading the Israelites through the wilderness for 40 years they built a golden calf and worshiped it. Moses was angry. Stephen stood out and started talking about his beliefs. He said he saw The Lord opening up the Heavens. When he spoke of this the people got angry and stoned him to death.
Spaghetti Tower
We made a spaghetti tower with uncooked spaghetti and marshmallows. The tower had to be 40 cm high and able to hold an egg through an earthquake. We made our tower’s base a triangle because squares tend to twist and swivel. We tried to make the least amount of bending by only having 3 “stories”. They like to bend where the spaghetti joins together to we had the least amount. We have a “basket” at the top to hold the egg. The tower looks like it is leaning because the spaghetti slid all the way through the marshmallow. That is our only problem. But we are still lucky to have ours standing because a lot of people’s fell over.
Holy Spirit
Who is the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit leads us so that we can believe in God. It entered you when you asked God into your heart. It guides us so we don’t do wrong. The Holy Spirit is part of the trinity. One of the 3 in 1. The Holy spirit can only work if it is untied with the Lord and his son. It gives you hope and wisdom, joy and peace, love and kindness. You are a child of God and you are filled with the Holy Spirit. It is a gift from God so don’t take it for granted. The Holy Spirit reminds you of what God has said and to stay away from evil and repent.
Holy Spirit in My Life
When I asked God to come in my heart he allowed the Holy Spirit to come and find peace in me. The Holy Spirit helps keep me away from evil and all the wrong things in the world. It tells me what is right and what is wrong. It helps keep me away from temptation and guides me through to the right path. When the Holy Spirit came into me it gave me peace, wisdom, faithfulness, kindness, patience and many more things. I think that if we didn’t have the Holy Spirit watching over us we would all be in trouble because the Holy Spirit keeps us away from so many wrong things.
Using Math in Life
I can use the adding and subtracting unlike denominators method in life when I measure something and have to subtract an unlike denominator in a fraction.
Example:
Georgia needs 4¾ feet of ribbon to decorate her tree. If the package of ribbon only comes with 8½ feet of ribbon on it how much ribbon will be left over?
Figuring it out:
8½ – 4¾ = 3¾
Metaphor Writing
My life is like a plateau because something good will happen and everything will go up, things are moving along with me. An example of this is when we found out we were adopting we were going up the side of the plateau. They told us we wouldn’t have to wait for more than a year for our baby. Another example of my life being like a plateau is when my grandpa got married. His life was going up the plateau and he was a lot more happy with her.
Once we got up to the top we were moving very slowly, waiting for our referral, it has almost been 2 years. It is hard and not very exciting because everything stays at the same level. Nothing shocking or exciting really happens. After the marriage at the top we got to see them a lot and visit every week. We even got to walk to their house after school sometimes.
Along the way of our process we stubble a little on the rocks and it is hard to keep trusting God through this because the process is taking so long. All of a sudden a year later my grandpa got sick with cancer. It was really hard and we were stumbling constantly. God had a plan for our family and I am still trying to figure why that happened.
When our adoption process comes to the other end we will go back down the other side of the plateau back to our normal life. And we will just keep going on until we reach the next plateau of adventure. At the end of the plateau my grandpa ended up passing away and his new wife, that he had only been married to for a year, was left alone. She moved back to her old house and we never get to see her anymore.
Bowling Reflection
I thought it was fun that the teachers let us go bowling with the grade because it was something different then normal school. I got a couple strikes and some spares. Im not a very good bowler but its ok because it was fun! I surprisingly I won the first game. We didn’t have enough time to finish the second game, we had one more round. I wasn’t winning in that one. We did fun things instead of the normal bowling. Like making a tunnel with our legs and letting the people bowl through them. I did a back bend and let Haley bowl under me. But over all I had a fun time with my friends and I would totally do it again!
Math Problem
Question: Hayden is going door to door around her cul-de-sac to sell cookies for a fundraiser. It takes 8 minutes for her to go to a house and sell the cookies to her neighbors. If there are 5 houses on the block how long will it take for Hayden to go to all the houses in all? Use a table to figure out the equation.
X=Houses Y=Minutes
Answer: It will take Hayden a total of 40 minutes. Every house she adds 8 minutes onto her time fundraising. If there are 5 houses and 8 minutes at each house that equals 40 minutes of fundraising.
