This week was interesting. I worked on lots of math and science (I have to go into an NVOL quiz on Tuesday next week for unit 7/8), so I worked on units 7 and 8. I also did a lab kit (about osmosis) for NVOL. And I did some Sci News, and some News4Youth. I did a bit of coding about raycasting! It was really cool because it could simulate a 3D environment in Scratch!

I learned about mummies in News4Youth!
I did a lab kit for NVOL Science.
Here is what hapenned.
Basically, I put a few gummy bears into distilled and salt water.
Here is one of the distilled water ones.
Here is all of them in a row.
I learned about tectonic plates in NVOL science.
I also did a lot of NVOL math. I started units 11 and 12 this week.
I wrote about wormholes this week.
I also did a lot of Sci News. I learned about fungi, healing gels, and Xenobots.

LC Response

Hi Ethan,It looks like the saltwater gummies held together a lot better than the distilled water gummies. Any idea why?The articles on mummies and tectonic plates look like they would be really interesting. Did you learn anything there that especially interested you?Thanks for telling me about your Math and Science and for all the screenshots including your wormhole writing.Raycasting sounding cool. I’d be interested to know more about that.I’m keeping my response short again this week as I work on Winter Connections.Best,Shannon
