4/3 Surprise

Surprise: As I was getting my notebook ready, Mrs.Garcia surprised me. Mrs.Garcia told us that we wouldn't have Friday to work on our electrical inventions. It surprised me because I didn't think I could finish my project within three days. I learned that for certain things you may have to work with a short time period. Ex.

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...
