In class, we have been doing new vocabulary lists and we have learned how to describe ourselves. During this unit, I have learned how to tell someone else what I like and what other people like.
I created a project that allowed me to use my new skills, by describing myself, family members, and others, as well as told what they like to do.

In FFA there are many different things to learn, many contests to compete in, and many teams to join. For example here are some things you learn; breeds of cattle and pigs, the FFA creed, leadership, and personal growth, career success and many more skills.
PETA is an organization against animal cruelty. They do anything and everything they can to make FFA and agriculture to look bad. What they do is find one video, one picture and they post it all over Facebook, their website, and wherever else they can put it where people will see it. The video or picture usually shows someone doing something to an animal in a way that is not normal. They post comments and captions like “This is what agriculturalists do” “This is what FFA does” But that’s not true. That picture or video is one person, doing one thing, to one animal. That video or picture is not FFA and not agriculture.
They had this one post called “FFA is Lame AF.” It explained some things that you learn in FFA like leadership, personal growth, and career success. They say things like”Do you want to be a part of this” “This is FFA” And none of that is true.
They post pictures like these.
In my Genius Hour project, I haven’t done much yet, but I have gathered t-shirts and I plan to start making my quilt this weekend.
For my Genius Hour Project, I have chosen to make a quilt out of t-shirts. I chose to do this because I think it would be cool to know how to quilt. Also, I could teach others how to quilt once I know how to.
In our lab we observed and described how different environments like microhabitats in school yards support different varieties of organisms. In our microhabitat, we observed different insects such as; slugs, snails, spiders, worms, and rolly poly’s. We also observed plants such as; grasses, wild onions, leaves, and moss. In the picture you can’t really see any of the insects, that’s because they were under the grasses and leaves. Our microhabitat was on a hill so there was lots of erosion. There are trees on the top of the hill, so there were lots if gumballs. In doing this project, we learned that all habitats are different even in small areas.
