Mystery Monday #3

Today we did mystery Monday. We got peices of the map and put the all together and we caculated the water on the earth. My class and I found out that their is not alot of fresh water on the earth. Only 1% of water is clean but 2% of the water is clean but frozen. We were talking about different ways we can get more water. Finally we thought of ground water. We got the queston, How do people get water from far under ground. I think people get water from under ground from a drill or big machines that digs deep. After the hole is made you can get a well or just keep the hole there or just cover it up.

NYC trip

I think going to NYC was the best fieldtrip this year. I learned many things like, I used to think the statue of liberty was the one of the tallest buildings in the world but when we went the closest we were able to go it looked really, really small compared to the size I thought it was before I saw it. Also i didn’t know how cool Manhatten looked with all the buildings from far away Also I thought the Brooklyn bridge went over the Hudson River not the East River.

Next step in research-NY Project

This is the next step research for my group. My group and I decided to make new sub questions and a new big question because the red light for our other questions never turned green. After that we couldn’t think of four new sub questions we decided to make partners so we only have to think of two sub questions. My partner in my groups name is maya. Brody and Eli are partners. My group and I figured out later in our research that it was smart to do partners. We think this this because we didn’t have to think of to many sub questions and because we didn’t have to get all of the info about our sub questions. Instead we split the work so I did half of maya and I’s sub question and maya did the other half and at the end of our research we will combine all our info. Maya and I’s sub question is: How are all the animals effected in the hudson river by the factors in/around the hudson river? Brody and Eli’s sub question is: What is the eco system around the Hudson River? My group and I have not thought of a big question that connects to both of our sub questions. I assure you later in our research my group and I will have a good big question that connects to both of our sub questions.
