so does toothpaste!
Today
in science lab, I learned about how plastic revolves around people’s life. First
of all, 90% of a person's house is full of things that are made from petroleum
products. Second of all, most Californians use plastic right when they wake up
because the carpet, alarm clock, toothpaste, toothbrush, rinsing cup, and light
switch all contain petroleum products. Thirdly, plastic is really dangerous
because it has harmful chemicals. Even though people cannot live without
plastic, plastic is still harmful to the human body. So next time, make sure to not get a plastic water bottle!
Don't drink out of plastic bottles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Even carpets have plastic! |

In computer lab, I learned some language arts and
science skills. One of the language arts skills was understanding poetry. In the
game, I had to describe the poem like: if it had personification, similes,
metaphors or rhyme. The other skill was sentence fluency. I had to arrange the words of the
sentence so it made sense. Also, I had to put conjunctions so the sentence made
sense. Secondly, I learned some science skills. One skill was living things. In
that skill, I learned about the heart circulation and how to make plants grow. To make
the plants grow, it needed the specific amount of water and sunlight. All
these skills could help me because some of them are part of daily life. It was
interesting learning all these spectacular skills.
