The Human Ingenuity Essay is about us choosing an invention that has been made by famous inventors. For example my invention was the butterfly pavilion. First we had to do research about the invention and write a five paragraph essay on it. We then got to draw a picture of the invention and must write a paragraph on the back of an index card I chose this project for Criterion A because it shows the objectives, science was used to solve the problems or issues, and how science interacts with life society in the world.
 * Criterion A: One World**

This project is about flora and fauna on Catalina island. We must draw a picture of an endemic species and write three facts about it and the size of the species and have fun while making it. I chose this project because I put a lot of effort into it and had fun learning about it. I used many books about my animal and used a website recommended from Erin.
 * Criterion B: Communication In Science**

We must do an assignment on What's In a Rock, where we broke the rock open and find what is in it like color, texture and record it. I chose this project because it shows knowledge and scientific information. I used a rock example, and a handlense to see upclose that the naked eye cannot see. The assignment "Impressionist Pastel Drawing" was about showing our feelings about Catalina and drawing with pastels. I chose this project because I had a lot of fun doing this project and expressed my true feelings about Catalina. I used paper, pastels and my mind to create my final peice. It has been a major course over the year where we show on a map where have earthquakes have been. First you look on a cite for earthquakes recommended by Erin where earthquakes have been found around the world. Then find its exact place on the map using longitude and latitude. The last step is to place a red dot on the map and record it.This assignment shows a long process of data that we will use along the way. The tools we used were the computer, the earthquake cite, knowledge of latitude and longitude, a map and a little red dot. The mapping earthquake project has been a major course over the year where we show on a map where earthquakes have been. First you look on a site for earthquakes around the world then find its exact place on the map by using longitude and latitude and find its exact place by placing a red dot on the location and then record it. This assignment shows a long process of data. The tools we used were a computer, an earthquake site recommended by Erin, knowledge of longitude and latitude, a map and a red dot.
 * Criterion C: Knowledge and Understanding of Science**
