Project description: Our projects was about understanding what and adolescent is and what are the biological needs of and adolescents. We took several weeks to study what an adolescent is to really grasp and understand what we were going to be working on. Then we Made an infographic on a part of the brain I did mine on what is the difference between horses and human sight. After that we started working on researching, what are the biological needs of adolescents. After that we worked on making our final infographic.
Personal reflection A: The biggest challenge for me in making my infographic was finding data. Most of the data I found was not what I needed. First of all, I kept finding data on how adults self confidence but that was not what I needed then I found kid self confidence But that was not it either. I needed adolescents. I could have done so much better on trying to find data.
Personal reflection B: My greatest success during this project was actually creating info-graphics. Something I really like doing is organizing and making things. Not to mention creating after I found the data I needed finding pictures is easy.

Climate Change Project
Project Reflection
What is climate change and how is it different from global warming?
Climate change is different from global warming cause climate change is a natural process and global warming is not, global warming is more like global weirdness because it warms in some areas and in cooling in some other places.
Why should we care about climate change, now, when it's been happening naturally since the Earth began? The reason that we are worried about climate change is it is a natural process but it has been sped up by humans. We have sped it up so much that animals and other organisms are not able to adapt to the new surroundings.
How does your project demonstrate your understanding of climate change?
Our project is a wall garden with an automatic watering system. The gold fish in the tank help with fertilizer for the plants and the plants filter the water out for the fish. The wall garden does not take a lot of space so you can put it in houses in large cities to help with oxygen and it is super easy to make. Ours is made out of an old shoe rack and tubing. So it helps with recycling materials.
What was your largest area of growth during this project?
My largest area of growth for this project is incorporating the aquaponics into the system. The reason that this was hard was because we weren't sure that the fish would survive or if they would put too much ammonia in the water and it would kill the plants or if the fish would die because they weren't getting the amount of oxygen they need.
What was your greatest strength during this project?
My greatest strength was my knowledge of plants and hydroponics because I have worked on a hydroponics unit before. So I knew how to hook up the pump and make the automatic system. I also had a lot of fun because I got to incorporate some of my previous learned knowledge into this project.

Germs
To start off our germs unit we took a piece of bread and wiped the bread on a dirty service like the bathroom fosset, we are doing to see what grows on them after osprey week
