Super Bowl+PPPL

Two posts right now:
One the Superbowl will be in the Meadowlands in 2014 that will be the fifth time its played in a cold weather stadium that dosen't have a roof! Yay!!!!!
Also I went to the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, a while ago. It was cool to see the displays on plasma and energy and fusion. This was the first time I went to the PPPL open house.
Lastly I know how to put animations on my blog see!

Literature Poems

"The Crosswise Kin"

Hans Hubermann
Kind, helpful
Loving, caring, painting
smart, musical, malevolent, pushy
hating, running, fighting
tempered, credulous
Hans Junior

"Grey"
Wood is tan,
Bricks are red;
When the grey Bombs go off
Everyone is dead.

The street is brown,
White is snow;
The ash is grey
That always seems to blow.

The flag is black,
The ground is green;
Hitler's mustache is grey
And he is mean.

Recently our class went on a trip for school to the Adventure Aquarium to learn about the animals species and phylum. In addition we were also there to learn about animals that don't normally live in New Jersey so that we can see them to learn about them and how effect the environment. Also we saw the shark tunnel and the Jules Vernes gallery of crustaceans and Cnidarians. My favorite part of the trip to the aquarium was that we got to touch jellyfish (they felt squishy) sharks (the shark I touched "jumped" as I touched it) and rays (the rays felt different that the sharks and the jellyfish). When we ate lunch one of my group members gave me a pencil. Also my group was one of the groups that got to see all the exhibits and take lots of pictures. Lastly the group I was in got to see lots of the big exhibits for as long as we needed. This trip was beneficial to student learning because the aquarium teaches us about how these creatures live and how they survive in the environment so that we can be better prepared to save these creatures from extinction. Another reason this trip was important was that it was related to our science curriculum and the trip reinforces the information we already have which will help us in higher level science classes.
