Dividing Decimals

Today, in math, we learned how to divide decimals.  It actually isn't that hard, the only hard part is just remembering to move the decimal.  Of course, Mr. Amos made it look easy, as he does with all math stuff, but I wonder what I am going to do next year.  Even though I have had a B-, an A- and another A-, I still am no good at math.  For some reason, math is the only class where things don't click for me.  I hope I have a really good math teacher next year as well!

Kinds of Heat

Today, in science, we learned about the kinds of heat.  There is convection, conduction, and radiation. Radiation is when the heat spreads out in all directions.  Convection is when the molecules on the bottom get hot, rise up to the top, and then the molecules on the top get hot and rise up.  Conduction is when heat transfers by direct contact.

Hope you got some use out of those answers!  (:

"I Am Malala"

READ THE BOOK, "I Am Malala" RIGHT NOW!  It is really good.  Me and mom are reading it together right now, and every day she reads it to me, I become more interested and the more I dislike the Taliban.  Do you know what the subtitle on the book is?  It is, 'The girl who stood up for education, and was shot by the Taliban'.  Read the book, you'll love it.

Heat

Today, in science, we learned about the three different types of heat.  There is conduction, convection, and radiation.  Radiation heat is where it speads the heat in all different directions.  Conduction heat I remember as a conductor with the wand thing.  Conduction heat passes heat on while in direct contact with that molecule.  And finally, convection heat is where the cold molecules on the bottom get hot, and they rise to the top, pushes the molecules on the top to the bottom, and it goes in a never ending cycle.  Unless you turn off the heat.

Molecular Theory

When you think of Molecular Theory, you are like, AAAAAHHHHHHH!  That is like totally advanced science stuff.  But really, it's not.  Molecular Theory is just about solids, liquids, gases, and atoms basically.  Molecular Theory is learning that all atoms in all substances vibrate, nothing can reach Absolute Zero.  Absolute Zero is when it is so cold, the atoms don't even move.  Which is impossible.  Molecular Theory is hard to explain, so just call my science teacher for more information.  (:

Sleepwalking

The story I am about to tell you, (it is completely true) is a typical Bennett scenario.  So I was sleeping last night as most people do, and I had a dream that I woke up in the middle of the night and turned the light on in my room.  Why?  I don't know.  Then I stood there for about five minutes and decided it was morning time and so I went over to Angel's cage and started to replace her water.  But I realized that it wasn't morning yet, so I put the water back.  With out SHUTTING THE DOOR OF HER CAGE!  When I woke up for real, I found myself in my room which was completely ransacked, the light was on, Angel's cage was open and the water was still on the table where her cage was.  At first I thought it was Gavin or Chloe, then I thought it might be a robber who was here at night, or it was Ninja.  I was still groggy so don't blame me for thinking it was Ninja.  So I went downstairs to see Mom and told her about my dream and my room.  We put two and two together and APPARENTLY I had been sleepwalking.  This happened the other day too, just I was sleep talking not walking.  (:  Get used 2 my life if u r going 2 keep on reading my blogs.  :)  LOL

Espn Top Ten Plays

In Media Art today, we had to go in groups and start a project on an Interview.  So Jackson, Cade and two other girls who they are friends with, and I decided to to and ESPN Top a Ten plays thing since we are all sports people.  I will do one on basketball with Jackson, on of the girls will do gymnastics, Cade will do hockey and the other girls might also do basketball.  Me and Jackson already know what and how we are going to do.

Malala

Today in G.E.L, we read an article on Malala.  In case you don't know who she is, she is a teenager in Pakistan who speaks up for the kids and especially girls who don't get to go to school in third world countries.  For doing this, the Taliban thusly shot her in the face.  But her will to survive and help overcame her pain and she still is living.  She has written a book, and will probably write some more.  The book that she has written is called, I am Malala.  Hope you read it!  

6 Weeks Left!

We only have six weeks left of school!  Once it is summer, I kind if won't know what to do, or I will just be very carefree most of the time, without homework and stuff.  I will also miss school though.  A little bit.  Finally now it is spring, and I of kind of forgot that even though spring means that is isn't winter anymore, that doesn't mean that it is summer.  There is still lots of rain.  Lots.  But at least rain is better than snow, while it is springtime.
