Natural History and
General Science
Describe your favorite nature study find this term.
It was a big black
caterpillar, a little bit longer than a wooly bear, and it was all black. It
was a lot faster and I saw it in the middle of our yard on the concrete. And
the last place I saw it was all the way over by the wall.
Tell me what do you know
about nests? Or Tell me about the woodpecker family?
Woodpeckers tap on trees with their long beaks. And they live in
trees sometimes and some of them live on the ground. And there are flickers and
red headed woodpeckers and downy woodpeckers and pileated woodpeckers. They eat
bugs and berries and one member of the woodpecker family, the top, the very tip
of their beak, it can flip up to catch worms in the ground without their whole
bill opening.
His Downy Woodpecker drawing
Describe one of our
science demonstrations and what it meant.
You take one glass and put vinegar in it and you put some pennies
in it and a nail that is not stainless steel or galvanized and you wait. And
the pennies should get shinier. The copper ions come off of the penny and that
makes it shinier. But if you use stainless steel or galvanized, the nails get
shinier because that’s what happened with us. And one that worked was…
You take two cups and put cold water in one and boiling water in
the other one. And you put pepper in both of them. Black pepper. And then you
watch it. The pepper in the hot water glass will go around and not go straight
down but in the cold water glass it just floats down and stays down. Because in
the hot water, the ions are moving and they push the pepper up and around. But
in the cold water, its not really moving, not as much, so it just floats down.
Picture Study
Describe your favorite
picture from this term's picture study.
Now let’s see, my
favorite was…the last supper. So Jesus is in the middle and they are all on the
same of the table which is kind of odd. And its just at the time that Jesus is
telling everyone that someone is going to betray him and everybody is
whispering to each other “do you think I’m going to be it?” and things like
that. And at one side there is a hall and the side that they aren’t sitting,
there is a hallway going down from the table. And its in a big room and I don’t
see which one is Judas.
