What I Want to Learn in Science This Year

Posted on September 5, 2013 by cwheat1

I Like Marine Biology because there is so many strange and interesting creatures in the ocean that we have and have not discovered. My favorite is the bull shark because it is the only shark that can Change from saltwater to freshwater and not be harmed by it. They can live in both freshwater lakes and the ocean water.

I wonder why?

Why do people sleepwalk? Scientists have studied this simple question for decades but have not yet found an exact answer for it. They have some good theories and possibilities. Most people think that when someone is sleepwalking that they are acting out their dream, but scientists have proven this to be wrong. Most scientists believe that you sleepwalk in your deepest stage of sleep when the brain waves are slow. During the day our brain is very active, but when you go to sleep your brain is very slow. On the other hand your body however is still active, it has really winded down your brain has. You have a body that is still functioning compared to a sleepy brain. Scientists have still not yet discovered the truth to this mind-blowing mystery, but this is their explanation of what most likely makes people sleepwalk.

Military Soldiers

Posted on February 14, 2013 by cwheat1

Heros are people in your life that you look up to. Heros fight for us and help us. A soldier in the army is my hero because he is brave, courageous, and kind.
My hero is a soldier in the Army because they are very brave. They risk their lives to make sure their country is safe and secure. They choose to go fight for our freedom even if it means giving up their lives for us and our country. Soldiers are so brave to give up their own life for us. We need to respect them.
Military Soldiers are courageous because they save lives and they are very strong to do what they do. They have about 6 months of boot camp just so they can go train to fight for us. They are also very helpful to us and our country. They give up their own time to go to schools to tell us how to be safe if a bad guy comes into the school. Military soldiers also make a bunch of sacrifices. They have to leave home and their friends and families behind.
These are the reasons why my hero is a soldier in the military.

Best Present I Gave

Posted on January 11, 2013 by cwheat1

Christmas is the best time of the year. It is about giving not receiving. It is about the thought and meaning that you put into it. The most awesome present I gave someone was a back massager to my dad. It produced heat and made your back vibrate. I tried it and it felt amazing. It made me feel good and like I did the right thing. It made my dad feel good and special. This was the best present I gave someone in 2012. It felt great knowing I did something good for another person, and I think he appreciated it a lot, more than anything. Christmas is all about giving to one another-not exactly getting something.
