Frogs

 This is the frog life cycle.

When and where.

 For my research card I did when and where. I researched some famous people set for me and made a presentation.  

Animal research cards.

 For literacy research cards I researched on animal habitats.

Evaporation

 For my research cards I chose to do the water cycle. The four stages of it are collection, evaporation, condensation, and precipitation.

Rocket challenge test

 In class we have been doing the rocket challenge. We all work in groups and have to complete challenges to get a sticker to move onto the next task.                                                                                                     Since most of my group was not here we had to join groups together.

Yesterday we did test flights with the rockets. We filled water bottles with water and in groups launched the rockets. We had different areas to look at. On was how much psi (pound-force per square inch) each group put in, how much water level each group put in, and notes of how it flew.

For the first few test flights the bottles flew like crazy in the air but when we added the fins on we noticed that the bottle did not spin around as much as when we did not have the fins on. 

The reason for when we did not have to fins on the bottle was because the wind caught on the bottle and made it spin around fast and there was nothing to catch it so it would not stop spinning around. 

We talked about what would happen if you took a fin off and we came up with the conclusion that the rocket would not have enough balance and would go crazy in the air.

But when we put the fins on the wind caught the fins and it had more balance so it did not go crazy and made the rocket fly far and high.

I think that when we did less water and the same amount of pressure the bottle went more straight and far because the water would drag the rocket down if we did more water but when we did less water there was more room for air pressure to launch and fly the rocket.

Here is a table of it and some images.

Camel's

 Today for the research cards I researched about Camels and how they survive in the desert.
