        Horses come in all sorts of colors and sizes.Some people own horses that are twice the size of an ordinary horse.Clydesdales are giant horses with long hair on they're hooves.

   First we put some potato peelings in the worm pen. Plants started growing off of the peelings. So we decided to place the plants in some containers. Place them in some water.

   The next subject is going to be about the pepper plant. I think it was really cool because it came with everything you needed. I read the directions first to be sure I knew what I was doing.

   It came with a hard brown disk and some seeds. First we put water in it and it said to massage it. We did until it was all broke up and mushy. We placed the seeds in it and put the lid on it. Then placed it in the sun.

Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 diabetes means your blood sugar or glucose levels are unusually high. Type 2 diabetes is the more common type. When you have type 2 diabetes your body doesn't make or use insulin well. Without insulin (If you don't know what that is see my previous post-Type 1 Diabetes), too much glucose stays inside your blood. Over tim, high blood sugar (glucose) can lead to serious problems with your heart, eyes, kidneys, nerves, gums, and teeth. -Dr. Bling

The Indian Paintbrush by Dr.Starfish

  Hi I'm Dr.Starfish, and my topic is about castilleja commonly known as Indian paintbrush and prairie-fire, it's a native wildflower found in both moist and dry areas also in sandy prairies. There are more than 200 types of Indian paintbrushes, and grow 1-2 feet tall. They come in many other colors but red, orange, and yellow are the most common.

   They bloom in early spring and thought summer, they like the sun but a little shading would be fine. They are also edible sometimes, but small amounts, because some soils have selenium (a toxic, alkaline metal) which the flowers absorb.

    Many tribes use them as a paintbrush, where it got its name from. The Chippewa Indians used it as medicine for rheumatism (a disease caused by swelling and pain in joints or mussels. Also for a bath rinse to make their hair glossy. Both from the selenium. 

     

Dr.Bevelyn_Leukemia Causes/Symptoms

Leukemia is a type of cancer of the blood or bone marrow characterized by an abnormal increase of immature white blood cells called "blasts".Leukemia is a treatable disease. Leukemia can affect people at any age. In 2000 approximately 256,000 children and adults around the world had developed some form of leukemia, and 209,000 have died from it. About 90% of all leukemias are diagnosed in adults.Leukemia, like other cancers, results from mutations in the DNA. Certain mutations can trigger leukemia by activating oncogenes or deactivating tumor suppressor genes, and thereby disrupting the regulation of cell death, differentiation or division. These mutations may occur spontaneously or as a result of exposure to radiation or carcinogenic substances. White blood cells, which are involved in fighting pathogens, may be suppressed or dysfunctional. This could cause the patient's immune system to be unable to fight off a simple infection or to start attacking other body cells. Because leukemia prevents the immune system from working normally, some patients experience frequent infection, ranging from infected tonsils, sores in the mouth, or diarrhea to life-threatening pneumonia or opportunistic infections. Most treatments involve chemotherapy, medical radiation therapy, hormone treatments, or bone marrow transplant. The rate of cure depends on the type of leukemia as well as the age of the patient. Children are more likely to be permanently cured than adults.

Science experiments! Dr. Doolittle

Today we learned bout molecules. And how to break them apart and look at all the interesting atoms! Here's some pictures of the atoms our class worked on today! I thought it was a very fun way of learning how to learn about atoms!

Another science project we did was learning about reactivity. What we did was mix different kinds of substances together, then wait for the results!and here's some more pictures from the day of that science experiment!

I'm just loving all the ways mrs. Graham is teaching us! Thanks mrs. Graham for letting us do all these awesome projects! They are always so fun and easy to learn! 

My name is Dr.Germ, and i watered the plants today. Also I moves the plants where they could get more light.there where a few plants that where dieting but I took care of them.

All the plants where a little dry but I made sure that I gave each one a good amount of water. Also I put alittlemore water in the potato plant. The bean plant was looking good from what I could see.

After putting watering the plants I noticed that the sun wasn't as bright as it should be. I moved the plants to where there was just the right amount of sun light. After see some the plants not doing to well, I moved those to the fron so they can get more light.

Dr. Glitter

  The pumpkins are getting big! I hope to have one grown pretty big by Thanksgiving or Halloween. They have gotten bigger than I thought, they would take longer than it really did. They have little leaves as you can see... I only planted 5 for each class but I am thinking the seeds split and there is now about 10... 

  Me and Dr. Germ have been trying to decide where to put the hunting camera at. We came up with several ideas.. We were thinking about putting it in a tree or above the door into the cafeteria.We still have to see what other kids have to say about it.

  There are some potato peels int the earth worm bins that have grown a lot, the worms like potatoes and paper!! I have got some of the peels out and planted them in a cups and they have grown a lot. I think we are going to have to find a different way to keep them alive and so we can grow them right. Only, because they do grow under ground.

  I have enjoyed being a Biologist for this six weeks.

Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 Diabetes, also called insulin-dependent diabetes or juvenile diabetes, is a lifelong disease caused by high levels of sugar (glucose) in your blood. When you have type 1 diabetes, your pancreas doesn't produce insulin. Insulin is a hormone that helps the glucose get into your cells to give you energy, without insulin, too much glucose stays in your blood. Over time, high blood sugar (glucose) can lead to some serious problems with your heart, eyes, kidneys, nerves, gums, and teeth.

These are some materials you need if you have Type 1 Diabetes:

Hi, this is Dr.Freckles with my potato plant.

My job this six weeks is the biologist.

I really want to learn more about the growth of humans and plants.

Hi my name is Dr.Germ.
My job is a biologist
I want to learn about about how animals grown and that it takes for them to grow really big.

Hey! My name is Dr.Bevelyn and I am the Biologist for 8th period. I hope to study the unusual activity that goes on around campus!

Hello my name is Dr.Starfish. I'm the 9th period Biologist. I'd like to learn more about different types of plants.

Hi,my name is Dr.Doolittle. I am the Biologist for Mrs.Grahams 9th period science class.I can't wait to show you all my interesting and awesome posts for this six weeks!

Hello, my name is Dr. Bling, I am your Biologist for 6th period on the second six weeks. I will be researching the subject of diabetes.

Hello my name is Dr. Glitter.  I am the Biologist for the 4th period class this six weeks. I would like to plant a pumpkin and maybe some other stuff Mrs. Graham has for us.
