Amazon land use

0

I think the native Amazonian’s and the settlers should be the ones that get the land because the settlers where poor Brazilians, and the Amazonian’s were there first. The Amazonian’s could teach the poor settlers how to farm and hunt for there family and make money. The settlers were made to live there they had no chose.

The loggers cut down the trees so that they can get money but they use less than half. Then the cattle ranchers move there cattle there because the soil losses nutrients and nothing can grow there. The rubber tappers don’t harm the forest but the things they make pollutes the world. The environmentalists try to keep it the way it is but we need food and wood.

Immigration day

It was sweet how we got to listen to mrs. Hilderbrand from hong kong, and see where she lived and all the night lights there. She let us see all the subway tunnels and some of the subways go under the harbor to the hong kong island. She let us see the ferry that went from china to the hong kong island. Jean Luc was from Honduras and it was in the winter he went out of his house and he ran out side with only tennis shoes on and he slipped and fell on the ice out side of his house. He had to be taken to the emergency room and they found out that he sprained his finger and it had to be relocated. Mrs. Hilderbrand told us that china says that 3,000 people from china had to come to hong kong. So the city has to make skyscrapers. So they can fit everybody, and the skyscraper got taller and taller, and the rooms got smaller and smaller. She told us that hong kong was in a riot against china. China was sending people to rule and since hong kong is democracy and China is Communist so they run into problems. Hong kong started a riot and they killed everyone in the night and made it seem like there was no riot at all. Hong Kong didn’t even know about it till recently. There was a person that went in the middle of a line of tanks. The tanks tried to go around him but he just moved were they were going. They finally arrested him and the tanks went by.

Immigration day is an awesome day because we get to hear cool stories and learn about different cultures. We get to hear from first immigrants and learn from then about the culture they lived in. It helped me recognize that it is a different country. Like us we are strict on are rules and that in Honduras they are relaxed about rules. If there is a yellow light we normally stop and if we don’t we might get puled over. In Honduras green means go yellow means hurry up and red means you can make it. Here we stop at stop signs but in Honduras it is like there is no stop sign there. Jean Luc said that hear there is all strait and properly but in Honduras houses are all over the place.

I heard so much about how it might have been tough to live in their country and why they left. Jean Luc went hear for college and goes to hope. Mrs. Hilderbrand on the other hand came here to get married. In Hong Kong there is a lot of riots and at lest I didn’t know about that at all, but I am sure that they know a lot of stuff about the U.S.A. I guess that since it is a small places that we don’t hear about that stuff. Compared to China they are about nothing. This challenges me to keep up as much as I can to learn about other smaller country and to learn about there climate and every thing. Like Isaac’s dad said that he thought Nepal was going to be cold because of the mountains. I think that was a stario type because mt. Everest was there. Just like how people think we cary guns around because a guy killed someone for his shoes.

My hardest problem I had this week was on 3-4 #22 the problem was a word problem. At the fair, 25 food tickets cost $31.25. What is the cost of each ticket? I figured out that I had to do 31.25/25 to find the variable of the problem. So I put the problem into a division problem. I did 31.25/25. I saw that 25 went into 31 1 time, and there was 6 left so I dropped the 2 to make it 62. 25 went into 62 2 time so I did 62-50 and there was 12 left I dropped the 5 to make it 125 I could put 25 in 125 4 times to make it 125-125=0 so my answer was 1.25.

 

I could use it when I want to by something in the store and it has a big number.

I wonder why they won’t except christianity when they except  other religions? I notice that there can be harsh punishments and not as hash punishment. One orphanage was burn down in Egypt and they said that they still  loved then and they were praying for them.

I read the “royal bridegroom” It was about a girl that was dressed and tought as a boy would have been. Then when it was time to marry she had no choice but to marry a girl. Then she told a story which was her story. then the princess was mad and was about to kill her when the “boy” pleaded with her to spare her life. then they told the story to the empire and the same thing happened to the empire as did the princess.

I visualize two woman talking to themselves and one that has a red face and a mad looking look. I also see a wine pitcher and a wine cup in the “boys” hand laughing. I also see a veil on the bed and two people looking at each other. I also see a bed in a chamber. Another thing I see is maids waiting to be called in.

A thing that puzzled me is why did a caption want a son so fast and not a daughter? A thing I disliked about the book is that the people didn’t want the girls. Another thing that puzzled me is why were the bride and bridegroom were in a wedding chamber? What I noticed about the princess is that she finds faults in other people. The princess gets mad if she has to do the work and not her maids.

Egypt project

Ancient and modern religion is very interesting. My ancient religion project was a coffin with cats in it, because they thought that the cats were royal. They also were owned by rich people and were put in a coffin. We had babies in the coffins too because they “died.” For modern religion we did a slide show about Islam, Christianity, and Judaism.

Ancient and modern art is cool. For ancient art we did make up. It was on men and woman. For modern art we did a slide show that had a sound track about graffiti. For modern art we did a poster with modern day artists. For modern day art we had the kids make a bracelets.

Reflecting As a Learner

The content that  I am enjoy learning about right now is my Egypt project. I like how I get to learn about different religions and their arts in different countries. There are three different religions in Egypt 90% are Muslims 8-10% are Christians and 1-2% are Jewish. One of the arts in Egypt is graffiti, graffiti happened to express themselves about the government.

The skills that  I am learning right now is to play when the koalas do the conga with the kangaroos. Another one that I am am learning is how to play freedom finale.

I think the kinds of lessons/activities that help me learn content and skills the best is group work at the Egypt project time. Another one is watching videos.

hot diggity dog is a project that a group. We had to make a hot dog resterant, are resterants name was hot dog mania.The thing I think we did best was the layout there were a bunch of dogs and hot dogs. The thing I think we should have worked on was the start and end of the Hot Diggity dog poster.
