7 x7 Seven Subjects & 7 things I learned September 19 & 20, 2012 Days 11 & 12
1.
Math
a. Vocabulary word: Pizza it’s easy to
think of fractions as pizzas, so pizzas are fractions! Mixed numbers are
multiple pizzas! Same with improper fractions
b. I know a lot about fractions, but I
relearned how to change mixed numbers into improper fractions and vise versa
c. 6 2/3 into an improper fraction is 20/3
d. I learned why improper fractions are
like tennis shoes, improper fractions are like tennis shoes because there more
practical and used more often, where mixed numbers are like high heels because
they’re less common and used for more proper and fancy occasions.
e. I learned that fractions are division
problems in disguise!
f. I learned that 8/3 which is an improper
fraction is 2 and 2/3
g. I learned how to MAD which is changing
improper fractions into mixed numbers, you multiply, add, and the denominator
stays the same
2. Science
a. I learned about the three laws of motion
by Isaac Newton today
b. I learned about the first law of motion
and I have to simplify it and put it in my own words, the first law of motion
means that if you have something that is at rest or lying on the ground it will
stay that way until an unbalanced force, or you, picks it up same rule applies
to something that is in motion or is moving. It will stay that way until it
hits something at rest such as a wall.
c. I learned that the second law of motion
means that objects of different mass or weight go at different speeds, say if
you have a race between an adult and a child since the child weighs less he
will go faster than the adult. But if you are sliding down a slide or traveling
down a mountain, then the object or person with more weight will become faster
than the child with less weight.
d. This third law is hard to explain but,
imagine that you are picking out an outfit for tomorrow; you would lay it out
on the floor, but Isaac Newton’s theory says that there is force coming up on
the clothes to keep it balanced or else the clothes would just fall through the
floor if there wasn’t force.
e. I learned that Isaac Newton’s laws of
motion cannot be proved wrong, they are irrefutable, except for in space, where
there is no gravity, the laws will not work there.
f. I learned that Isaac Newton experimented
his laws of motion with small machines when he was a child.
g. The first law of motion is called inertia
3. History
History Web Quest: Telegraph
1. FTL: http://www.history.com/topics/telegraph
a. who invented the telegraph and when? Samuel Morse invented the telegraph in the 1830’s and 1840’s.
b. Watch Video: The First Telegraph & summarize in at least 3 complete sentences: The telegraph was invented by Samuel Morse in the 1840’s. Instantaneous communication was now possible for the first time. The battery and the electro magnet invented in the early 19th century made the telegraph possible. All you needed to have was a wire stringing from one end to another and electro magnet an one end and an on and off switch at the other. You would use the Morse code to communicate. Morse sent the first telegraph in 1844.

team was taking on the dreaded red team who was in first grade! Even though
Lily’s practice was good, she began growing really tired. Lily was a hard-core
player and did whatever she could to get the ball.
And then it was time for the match, Lily was playing against
a really good player from team red, the horrifying, number 8! The little stick
of dynamite ran right past Lily and scored almost 9 goals! Lily was not happy,
so she stepped up her game; she did whatever she could to get that ball. But it

going to kick the booty’s of the green team next week!
