Learning Log Week 3

MATH:  I did input and output.  There's always a rule like add 10 so whatever number you start out with you add 10 to get the output.

LANGUAGE ARTS:  I read 15 minutes a day.  I read to my Uncle Pat and my cousin, Miles.  I practiced handwriting too and ABC Mouse.

SCIENCE:  I went to Lake Tahoe.  If there's not enough rain the lake shrinks.  We could walk really, really, really far out on the lake because the water went down.  Also, because there wasn't enough rain there were fires nearby and lots of smoke.  Sometimes fires can happen from lightening when the ground is dry.  My grandpa taught me there is such thing as dry lightening that can cause fires.

ENGINEERING:  I didn't get a change to work on Engineering this week.  I'm planning on finishing up my first project next week.

HISTORY:  I got a new map of the United States and a new World map.  I am having fun learning new things.  I also went to a museum and learned about old fire engines.  They used to be pulled by horses.  They also had fire grenades that had salt water in glass bottles and they would throw it at the fire.  It was salt water so the water wouldn't freeze.  I also saw a play about the wild west.  There was a sheriff and a bad guy and a good guy.  It was fun seeing how the buildings used to look.
