4/17 Surprise

Surprise- I had just taken out my pencil when I was surprised. What shocked me was when Mrs. Garcia told us we get to choose between Marco the Pencil or Zondle for both classes. I was surprised because normally 5A gets perks (they got to make their own sports game and we had to write an essay). I learned that sometimes you may have the upside or the downside, but make the best of it. Ex. 5A went to ELA first and they had to make a choice for both classes. They had to choose between playing kahoot or making a video to study for the test. They voted for making a video. When 5B went to ELA they were upset because they wanted to play kahoot. 5B made the best of it and chose how to study for the next test.

The top of the cladogram includes the organisms name and sometimes a picture. On the side of the cladogram, you will usually see different characteristics. Since a cladogram is drawn at a downward angle, the characteristic applies to everything above that point on the diagram. As you go up the cladogram, the animal at the top has all the characteristics listed throughout the cladogram. Along with this, the points in which two animals meet is not when they evolved from one another, but their common ancestor. Lastly, the diagonal line of a cladogram represents time.

Image: www.flickr.com Summary: Throughout this week, the main topic of discussion was food waste and food systems. To understand the food system and how it works, we went through the system of apples and how they can be wasted in each step. The apples are produced and they can be wasted when they are eaten by insects. Due to this, they can't sell, so the farmers throw the apples away. Next, the apples are harvested. If apples have fallen on the ground or are not up to standard the farmers throw them away, even though they are perfectly fine. After that, the apples are washed and waxed to look appealing to customers. During this step, apples are wasted if the they are ruined while waxing. Some apples are then processed into different food items, such as pie filling, apple sauce and more. If people mess up during this conversion, the apple product gets thrown away. Then, the apples are packaged.If packaged incorrectly, the apples get thrown away. After this step, the apples ge...
