Gender Equality

Posted on February 22, 2016 by feliciap2015

http://www.upworthy.com/canadas-prime-minister-on-the-importance-of-raising-feminist-sonsI chose an article about Justin Trudeau and raising not only his daughter but his sons as feminists. It is also about how we shouldn’t be afraid of the word feminism and gender equality in economic, social, and legal aspects Won’t be achieved till 2133. This article involves mostly Trudeau but other people are mentioned. I chose this article because something that sticks out to me about gender equality is how very few men are interested in it. This article and “The Friday Everything Changed” are related because Trudeau mentioned how men should be supporting gender equality like how the boys should have supported the girls in “The Friday Everything Changed.”

Matter Matters

Matter Matters

Define: challenge was to inform people about matter in an engaging way.

Dream: PowerPoint, Presentation, kahoot, poster, video.

Design and deliver: we made a PowerPoint presentation and we delivered it over edublog.

Debrief: we worked as a team and found ways to present in an entertaining way. Creativity of presenting could have been a bit more interesting. But otherwise it was a very effective in teaching people.

Oobleck

Posted on February 15, 2016 by feliciap2015

We did a experiment in science we made Oobleck. Oobleck is made up of two things. Chemical A was a transparent and clear liquid. Chemical B is a white, powdery, thick, and clumpy substance. The properties of Oobleck are a creamy colour, liquid, and solid. The Oobleck acted like a solid when hit fast and put under pressure quick but when it slowed down it turned into a liquid so Oobleck behaves both like a solid and liquid. I think Oobleck is liquid because Oobleck only holds it solid form for a short period of time not majority of the time. It helped me understand that molecules can act in different states when put into it but will reform back into its original state.
