Sheep + sheep + sheep= 45
    ?     +     ?     +    ?    = 45
45/3= 15

So, 1 sheep is 15

Sheep+castle+ castle=21
15      +    ?    +   ?     = 21
21-15=6
6/2= 3

So 1 castle tower is 1 point 

Castle + candles=7
3         + ?          =7
7-3=4

So 3 candles are 3 points and 4 candles are 4 points.

Final- 
Candle +sheep+ castle=?
3          + 15    +    2     =20

So the answer is 20

You must love baseball


         Problem of the week
                Problem C
       You must love baseball!




What I know:
- 30 students in class
- 21 baseball fans
- 9 non baseball fans
- atleast 1baseball and non baseball fan is absent
- more than half the class is present
- asking baseball fan is 3/4
- find the LCM 
- 21/30 fans 9/30 non fans
- How many students were absent that particular morning?


Find the LCM

LCM for 21- 1,3,7,21
LCM for 9- 1,3,9
LCM for 30- 1,2,3,5,6,10,15,30
3 is the LCM fOr all of the numbers

Some factors tht equal 3/4

12 / 4=3
16 /4=4

15/ 5= 3
20 /5= 4

18/6=3
24/6=4

The first 3 are possible solutions because it shows that 4,5,6 students are absent and is less then the half the class- 3/4.

21/7=3
28/7=4

This is not possible because it shows that there wee no baseball fans absent.

Conclusion
In conclusion I bed more information to find one answer to the problem because I am getting 3 possible solutions which are 4,5,6 of students begin absent that particular morning. So therefore, I have 3 possible solution and need only one that is correct for how many student are absent that day. I need Jay Fann to give me one or two more clues to get the 1 possible answer.

Green smoothies have a lot of benefits that is good for us for our everyday cycle and they can help us maintain our bodies. While having the green smoothie you are getting a lot of fruits and vegetables in you which is a good thing because if you don't eat 
much of fruits and veggies your getting the portion that need in that as smoothie. Once you start having a habit of drinking it everyday you will start craving for it, and will kind of forget the junk food, but maybe you would eat it once in a while which wouldn't really be bad. Drinking green smoothies you are getting proteins, calcium, vitamin c, and magnesium. Most smoothies have 60:40 ratio of fruits to vegetables. 

Some of the benefits you can get from drinking green smoothies are: 
  • Getting protein
  • Getting fiber
  • Having fruits and vegetables as we are supposed to 
  • Antioxidants- natural substances that prevents cell damages

These are some of the health benefits of drinking green smoothies and how our bodies can get benefits from drinking it.

Recipe for Green Smoothie

The ingredients that are in the smoothie:

  • 1/2 cup fresh red grapefruit juice
  • 1 cup destemmed dinosaur/lacinato kale
  • 1 large sweet apple, cored and roughly chopped
  • 1 cup chopped cucumber
  • heaping 1/2 chopped celery (1 med stalk)
  • 3-4 tablespoons hemp hearts
  • 1/4 cup frozen mango 
  • 1/8 cup fresh mint leaves
  • 1/2 tablespoon virgin coconut oil (optional)
  • 3-4 ice cubes
  • 1/2- 1 tablespoon algae oil (do not add to smoothie- take separately
Some of the benefits for this green smoothie is that you are getting good amount of protien for fruits and veggies, vitamin, fibre, and all the other healthy benefits that our body needs to get each and everyday so that we don´t  need to suffer cancer, diabeties, heart diesease and more.
  • 1/2 cup fresh red grapefruit juice
  • 1 cup destemmed dinosaur/lacinato kale
  • 1 large sweet apple, cored and roughly chopped
  • 1 cup chopped cucumber
  • heaping 1/2 cup chopped celery (1 med. stalk)
  • 3-4 tablespoons hemp hearts (I use 4 tbsp)
  • 1/4 cup frozen mango
  • 1/8 cup fresh mint leaves
  • 1/2 tablespoon virgin coconut oil (optional)
  • 3-4 ice cubes, as needed
  • 1/2-1 tablespoon algae oil (do not add to smoothie - take separately), optional



The fruits and veggies that you had put in are benificial because:
  • Kale- low in calorie, vitamin c and k, superfood, fiber, and helps digest other food.
  • Grapefruit- vitamin c, good for our liver, protects against cancer, boosts metabolism, and reduce kidney stone risk.
  • Cucumbers- help digest food, flushes out toxins, cuts cancer, good for eyesight and has a lot of vitamins.
  • Celery- has fibre, and vitamin a,c and k.
  • Apples- fibre, helps balance blood sugar level, reduces cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. 
  • Algae oil- omega 3 fatty acids, and helps cleans wastewater.
  • Virgin coconut oil- lowers cholesterol, reduces heart disease, and boosts metabolism.
  • Huller hemp seeds- protien and high on fibre.
  • Mangoes- vitamin c, fibre, prevents cancer, eye health, and boosts immune system.
These are some of the reasons why green smoothie is very high in fibre.

Green smoothie ingredients- Mr. Cheney

Poetry Soireè



Poetry Soireè










Rebound- drawing and typing
Snowflakes- picture
My hero- video- https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fNNjNOxEeYg

We had an assignment of making 3 poems which has to have one on Rebound the book we are reading in class, the other 2 can be anything. In my poem presentation I chose, snowflake that was given as an idea by my teacher and a free style poem on my grandma My Hero.

This is what I wrote in my poems: 


Rebound- David
David can become very cantankerous,
His behaviour is rancorous,
He is aggressive and fierce,
He is always serious,
But still he is courageous 


Snowflakes
Snow came and made everything     
white
Now we can see the beautiful site
Outside the snow is falling down
Wonderland of snow has covered the town
Fresh wind pass by us
Laughter filled in the sky
An amazing time to get together
Kids playing and it seems like forever
Everyone is enjoying the snow
Small snowflakes pass by us an go


My Hero
My hero inspires my everyday,
She encourages me to reach my goals,
Never discourages me,
Risking her life to protect me,
She spends her time teaching me,
She is always happy,
Helping me overcome my challenges,
Never allowing a tear come out I my eye,
Being brave and bold,
Loving me more than herself,
Giving me more that what she can afford,
She is always there for me,
She I the most important person world in world,
She is precious
She is my lovely grandma❤️

Those were my three poems I did for this project.

Eye Drawing


Eye Drawing


Materials needed: 

Here is my link to drawing the eye.
Hope you like my eye!

Some of the videos I had looked at were: 

This is my eye drawing that we were assigned in class. I started off with looking at afew videos and getting an idea of how my eye will start and how it would look. I started doing some rough copies and got a hang of what I am doing so I had started my final copy that was on a card stock paper. 

I first measured the paper with a ruler and how much I want my eye distance to be with each other and the in between them. Second, I made the outline of the eye would look (almond shape but it doesn't have to all the time, different eyes have different outline). Then, that I used any circular object to make the pupil (I used a toonie). I made a small circle and a little window inside the pupil. Next, I made lines in the pupil as showin in the video. After all that I coloured the circle in the pupil and then the rest if the pupil but not the area I had made lines on. Then, I smudged the dark colouring into the part where you made the lines. Lastly, I made a little section that is pink when you look at a real eye.

To make the eye lashes I first started off with making the top eyelashes, so I made the eyelashes into waves and when I thought it is like eyelashes I used it. For the bottom part where the eye starts I made a little gap between the eye and made a smile out of it (that is how it's supposed to look like), in the beginning of the eye the eyelashes at the bottom will be little and as I went to the end it became bigger. For the eyebrows I made shaded in the lines but in a quick motion.

In conclusion, this was a fun and intersting assignment to try and learn something new!

V
ideo Choosen- What's wrong with 
our food system


Author- Birke Beahr

Authors biography- 11 year old boy named Birke who's passion is to talk about the food we eat. He studies the sustainable and organic farming.  He is an offical farmer. He is always thinking about information that is great and will allow is his peers to know something that is happening to the food that we eat. His goal to is to tell others about the destructiveness of the industrialized food system.  Birke Baehr is famous for teaching others about what is happening in out industry and how we can help our economy for having healthy, organic and fresh food to eat.

Why we should watch it in class- I think that we should watch this video in class because it is telling us how the expectation of the process and the reality right now for making the food we eat. The moral of this video is to make us understand how our food is made/ processed. We need to know what's inside of our food, where it comes from and how it is made/ the process of making the food.

Knowing all this would be good because we should know if we are getting food that at is organic, healthy and fresh not with chemicals and other processes that are put on to make them last longer than the day it is supposed to rot. The video tells us how some of the food that we eat can have cancer and it can harm our intenstines and that isn't good for our body. 

Knowing what goes inside our food is important because they could be putting anything to make the food sweet, bigger and more in the color it needs. Seeing the steps/ process for how they make our food, what chemicals they put in and what type of chemicals so it doesn't harm us. Lastly, we need to know where it comes from because the some I the food we eat sit really grow in the t area and they will duplicate the food. Once I saw a video that showed a person duplicating a cabbage and it looked alike and with that we can tell that it has a lot of chemical to make it.

In conclusion, we should watch this video because we get to know what is happening to our food system and how we can do something to help make a change before all the food the food we eat not just be filled with chemicals and other bad stuff in it.

Video choose- The difference between winning and succeeding 

Link to the video:

Author- John Wooden

Author's biography- John Wooden is known as a coach that made UCLA's winning records that was matchless in the basketball history. He was named 'Wizard of Westwood', when he was the coach of UCLA and had won 10 national championships. John Wooden was named the national coach of the year six times. John Wooden is famous for being the head coach of the UCLA Bruins basketball team. He has a book called "They call me coach", it is about his life, players, and his winning attitude. 

Why we should see this video in class- We should see this video in class because John Wooden talks about how we shouldn't compare each other by how smart or how dumb someone is, his basketball journey, liking to write poetry and discribes the meaning of success.
His speech is very powerful, inspiring, and courageous.
The speech that John Wooden talks about: being successful doesn't mean you have to have A's and B's or 90's or 100's, that is because we all have differen way of learning, some learn slow and the others may learn fast.  
His defination of success was 'peace of mind attained only the theough self satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to do the best of which you're capable of'. Like his dad said 'you should never try thinking that your better than someone else. 
He always reminded his players that when ever the game is over don't let others know that you didn't outcome , they shouldn't know it from your actions too. The opponent shouldn't tell by the actions whether you outscored them or they had outscored you.
Mr. Wooden talked about when he was the coach of UCLA and how the players had to get the self satisfaction for know ong that they can do there best of what they are capable of.
The book that he had mentioned 'they call me coach' is about him talking about his coaching years, from difficult times to the easy, his two players Conard Burke and Doug McIntosh, and their personality.
In conclusion, we should watch this video in class because it talks about the reality of people. We need to learn how success is really earned and how we can make I happen if we work hard to achieve it. 

Some of John Wooden quotes are:
"The best completion I have is against myself to become better"
"Nothing will work unless you do"
"Success is never final, failure is never fatal. It's courage that counts"
"If you want to go fast, go alon. If you want to go far you need a team"
"When opportunity comes it is too late to prepare"
