Friday on our nature walk with the kindergarten and 1st grade Montessori class, i learned a couple of things. one is that little kids can love nature while still be scared of it. second, i learned that many young kids do not know very much about nature. third, i learned that kids can be completely absorbed by stuff they dont understand (such as a butterfly or a tree). Lastly, i learned that some things in nature, nobody understand.
My water test for tomorrow will be about the phosphate in water. i will be doing that because my action project is about compost and the compost we make will be donated to our botany class and any other class in need of good soil.
My project is to transform an old dugout for baseball into at least 2 compost piles. we will tear down part of the dugout, the roof and the front, and then fence in the front again.
Right now our group has not done much action on the project because we are waiting for clearance by our principle and our schools supervisor. We have done some reaserch relating to the subject and found lots of helpful facts.
My responsiblilties are to keep everyone in our group safe while doing the project and to find important info about how to make the specific compost type.

Global Science: First Post
Internet technology can be really confusing when i really think about it. One thing i want to learn about is how google uploads all the webpage link and shows how close what you typed in is to something out on the internet. I also want to know how use macs on the internet because this is confusing me soooooooo much!!! Facebook is a really cool idea of a site because it is like google but conects people to other people. Lastly i would like to know, generaly, how the internet was made.
In global science i would like to learn more about weather and things in space such as gas clouds or distant solar systems. i think i could have some great ideas on how to make some things work more efficently, but i do not know how to do what i need to do. i am very interested in water and things close to water. i am interested in the wind turbine that they are putting up by our school for the greenhouse. I think we could do some experiments on the grand river such as water testing to see what contaminants are in it.
