Criterion A: For our Human Ingenuity Project we had to research someone who effected our lives today. And we researched people who had researched a problem in the world and they would try to fix it. We used our knowledge and summarized a couple sentences from our essay and write it on a note card, along with some of our own pictures. In our Human Ingenuity project we h ad to research about the problems and issues our people had in order to get to their solution. Some scientific tools I used during this project was books, the internet, a note card and a pencil.

Criterion B: Moon Journal Criterion B: In our Moon Journals we took lots of notes. We had lots of scientific language because we had to describe the moon. Some of our language was craters, mare, lat quarter, and full moon. The Moon Journal was a 30 day challenge where we had to describe the phases of the moon each night. Along with that we drew a picture of what the moon looked like. I chose my Moon Journal because we had to write down lots and lots of information in it. In it we drew pictures each night of what the moon looked like. I used many references. Some nights I used the internet if I couldn't see the moon. Other nights I would use my moms phone to tell the temperature. I always used a pencil and my moon journal to record my information.

Criterion C: Mapping Volcanoes and Earthquakes Criterion C: In Mapping Earthquakes and Volcanoes, we were assigned to find on a website a volcano or an earthquake in the world. Then the task was to get a red or green dot and the dot where the volcano or earthquake was on our map. In order to know where the volcano or earthquake was we had to know what longitude and latitude was. On the website it showed the latitude and longitude, which helped us mapping the volcano earthquake. The tools I used was Mrs. B's computer, a map, and red or green paper dots.

Criterion D: Map In A Pan Criterion D: In our project for Map in a Pan we did a lot of investigation. We measured how tall our clay mountain was, and how much water we put in the container. In our project what's in a rock we made an educated guess of what type of rock it is. IN the project Map in a Pan we used clay, water, an expo marker and a glass container.

Criterion E: Famous Mountain Bar Graph Criterion E: In our project Famous Mountain Graph we had to record and solve one by one which mountain was the highest and which one was the lowest. Then we were asked to make a bar graph on the tallest and lowest mountains. In the bar graph we had to organize it by the lowest number up to the highest number. We had to neatly shade in the bar so you could read it to tell which mountain went to which number. Our tools were our science spiral notebook, a pencil, and a sheet which had a list of the mountains which was provided by Mrs. B.

Criterion F: Crater Lab Criterion F: For the Crater Lab we were given a task to figure how a crater is formed and what the crater looks like. In this project we did and experiment and dropped a rock into sugar and sprinkles and we saw the ejecta rays, regolith, the mineral, and the crater. We measured out the drop and measured the width of the crater. In this activity we had to be careful in order to be safe. We stood far away from the drop of the rock so that the sugar wouldn't get into our eyes. Also we had to be careful not to spill the experiment otherwise someone might slip and it will be a huge mess to clean up after. Some tools I used were a ruler, brown sugar, sprinkles, a rock, and a tin pan.
