Jewish studies Bar/Bat mitzvah what did I learn

readergirl18 on

We were learning about Bar/Bat mitzvahs and what responsibilities it comes with. Bar/Bat mitzvahs are milestones in someone’s life. It depends what level of observance you follow, but if you are orthodox there are more responsibilities, such as putting on tefillin and wearing tzitzit. Tefillin are black leather straps connected to a black box. There are two parts to the tefillin, the one on the arm, and the one on the head.

 

This is how to wear them

Boys are also commanded to wear tzitzit after their bar mitzvah. Tzitzit are fringes attached to the tallit meant to remind people of G-d 613 commandments/mitzvot.

Other responsibilities include keeping shabbat, keeping kosher, giving tzedakah, and others.

Innovation Day Reflection(:

readergirl18 on

Innovation day was a blast. I liked our project, because we put a lot of work into it inside, and outside of school. We made an ad, a website, and a logo. Our board was extremely squished because we had a lot of research, and other things, without a lot of space):
We were not confident going into innovation day because our circuit was not exactly working, but in the end it was good because we were able to make our circuit more secure. If we did this again, I would make sure that we had a bigger board with more space, and I would make sure that the circuit is permanent.

Un proverbe de Will Smith

En francais cette année nous avons pris un proverbe de Will Smith, et j’ai choisi

“He who says he can and he who says he can’t are usually right.” I chose this quote because it makes me think that everyone faces challenges in their own way.

 

“La personne qui dit je peux ou je ne peux pas, les deux ont raison.” Je choisi cette phrase parce que cela me fait penser que chacun fait face à différents défis a sa propre façon. 

ביקור בישראל

הנושא שלנו השנה יהיה ביקור בישראל. דברנו אל למה אנחנו רוצים ללכת לישראל, כי אנחנו קרנו מכתב שמנהל כתבה למנהל שלנו. המכתב אומר שהם שלוחים 10 תלמדים לישראל. הילדים צריכים להיות טוב בלימודים ובהתנהגות. אמרתי שאני טובה בלימודים, אני רוצה ללמוד אוד על ישראל, ואני יודעת עיברית

Ma Journee Typique

readergirl18 on

A la fin de notre unité sur Une journée Typique dans la classe de français, Madame Sylvie nous a demandé de faire un projet pour démontrer ce que nous avions appris. J’ai choisi CANVA pour montrer les activités que je fais dans une journée typique comme Lundi. Nous devions aussi utiliser l’horloge de 24 heures pour indiquer à quelle heure on faisait chaque activité. Après, nous avons présenté notre projet à la classe. J’addore ma presentation, mais j’ai oublié de me présenter.

Problem that we had to solve

How can we provide electricity to community outdoor spaces in an energy efficient way that still maintains the safety and “fun”aesthetic of the space.

Research on Solar energy

The three main technologies are collectors/solar panels, reflectors, and solar cells. Solar energy is when a solar panel/solar collector takes the heat from the sun, then it’s made into energy. Solar collectors/solar panels are devices that absorb heat from the sun. A window that lets heat energy from the sun enter homes is called a passive solar collector/solar panels because there are no moving parts. Some other types of solar collectors/solar panels contain water in tubes that are heated by the sun. Solar collectors/solar panels like these are usually located on the roof of a building. The hot water in the tubes is then pumped to other parts of the building. These are called active solar collectors/solar panels because the heated water is moved by using pumps. Solar reflectors focus the sun’s heat energy on one spot by using mirrors or lenses. That spot then becomes so hot that if water is placed there it changes to steam. Large solar reflectors can make enough steam to use in a generator to produce electricity, small solar reflectors can also be used to cook food. Solar cells are another main technology that we developed to make energy. Solar cells transform light energy into electrical energy. Any light energy will work with a solar cell, it doesn’t have to be the sun’s light. But solar cells are too expensive to use where large amounts of electricity are needed. They are mainly used in places far from power lines and on space satellites. 

Our ideas

For solar energy we’re making an outdoor skating/hockey rink with lights powered by solar panels. We have two nets out of paper, lights powered from solar panels(It will work). To hold the lights up we used craft sticks.For the wind energy we’re making a drawing of how wind energy works. The wind energy could be used to power a carousel, ferris wheel, and roller coaster in another outdoor space.

Les français

readergirl18 on

 Pendant notre cours d’Études Sociales avec Madame Sylvie, nous avons appris beaucoup de faits intéressants au sujet des Premiers Explorateurs. Pour conclure ce chapitre, nous devions choisir un groupe d’explorateurs de notre choix. Moi, j’ai choisi Les Français. Après ma recherche, j’ai préparé une présentation avec CANVA. Voici quelques faits intéressants que j’ai appris sur les Français.  Les Français sont venus au Canada en seize cents quatre. Jacques Cartier est allé au Canada avec deux bateaux, et soixante et une personnes. Les Français sont venus de France. Les français sont arrivés à l’Île St. Croix. Ils sont venus au Canada par chance, mais ils voulaient aller en Inde pour échanger les épices.
