Supplies: Cheese, Two slices of bread, Butter, A stove, Something to flip the grilled cheese with, Ohhhhhh yes you will need a pan.





Instructions:

 1. you must heat the stove then put butter on it                       ( I think???)
2. then take two slices of bread then add more butter to the bread , before you do anything else you must put lots of cheese.
3.Now you may plop the cholesterol  bomb on the the pan and begin to cook it.
4. After thirty seconds flip it to its other side keep doing that until it has cheese melting out of it Yummmmm 
  
                  You have failed at grilled cheese making if it becomes a piece of charcoal. 


THE TIGER RISING

- Chapter 1-7 

          The book is about a boy named Rob who's mom had passed away and who lives with his father, they own a motel called the Kentucky Star located in Jacksonville Florida. The hates school and would do what ever it takes to not go back he also has a weird leg condition where he has rashes . One of the other main characters is a young girl named Sistine, she just moved from Pennsylvania to Florida. So far she hates Rob and everyone in the South she thinks there to cocky. Norton and Billy Threemonger are pretty much the school bullies they tend to just bully Rob but when Sistine showed up she began to get harassed.

 chap.1        The first chapter starts of with Rob waiting for the school bus under the sign  for the motel his dad owns. He was thinking about the day before and how while he was wondering through the woods try to get lost so that he wouldn't have to go to school out in the distance arose a old abandon gas stations he walked around it to his surprise there was a large crate with a large tiger he phased around unhappily (being trapped is probably not fun). When the bus arrived he was greeted by the bullying of Norton and Billy.

chap.2          The bus came to a halt in a place that they had never stopped it Billy tried to ask the bus driver why we where stopped but he just ignored him, he opened the door and on came a girl with blonde hair and a pink dress.        " Sistine"       

chap.3-7       When the finally arrived at school, everyone sat down in there desk the teacher arose from his desk and said " I have great news class we have a new student her name is Sistine would you like to come up here and tells us about your self" Sistine went on about her self . After what had felt like a speech the teacher walked over to Rob and told him he was needed at the principals office, Rob rose up and began walking down to the main office. The Principal greeted him as he walked in and told him to sit down, he said "Rob I'm worried about your legs some of the parents have complained and asked if it was contagious, I am going to have to take you out of school until they properly heal". That news made Rob so happy he would finally be out of school.

THE ARTHROPOD STORY

1. How do we determine if the living things are successful?
  
ANSWER: I believe that you can tell if the arthropod is thriving if it is still repopulating and has not gone extinct and have adapted to there environment.
  
2. In your opinion are arthropods a success?

ANSWER: I believe that arthropods are a success because they haven't become extinct there are many different species.

3. Why aren't arthropods as big as a whale?

ANSWER: Because there exoskeleton would be to big and heavy witch means it would be very slow and could not get the amount of oxygen to survive.

project

The Arthropod project


My class has recently embarked on a project where we make many drafts of a arthropod and then we copy the insect on a large piece of ply-wood after that we will hang the final draft of the Arthropod on the out side of our school.

Those are some of my Argentine ant drafts now I am waiting to cut them on ply-wood


What characteristics do arthropods have in common ?!?!
-I know that they have an exoskeleton and chitin and an open circulatory system and also segmented bodies and jointed legs.







1st draft
This is my first draft I  kind of failed and made the legs and head really bad. 



3rd draft 

This was my third and final draft on paper it was a great i added color and better detail.
