Basketball

 On Monday nights from 7 to 9:00 PM we do a basketball activity where we go to a school that our coaches have rented out for the night. They teach us basketball and we play a game. I really enjoy it and they encourage us to practice.  It's a fun experience and I enjoy it. There are many things the coaches have taught us like handling, footwork, screaming, shooting and passing.

Remembrance Day

 Remembrance Day is a day to remember those who died in the war for our sake and a day to give thanks to those brave and courageous souls who fought in war. Remembrance Day is not just about World War 2 but it is a day to give thanks for all wars including the one in Ukraine and the one in Israel. It is also for many more that have and are being fought today.

 Sign language is the language that deaf and mute people use. Most often deaf people can use ASL. A lot of people think that to get someone who's deaf or mute to understand you, you just talk extremely slowly. This however is not the case. There are multiple different versions of sign language, there's ASL, BSL and many more. Not only death and blind people can learn it. If you have the patience, you can learn ASL, BSL or more by yourself

Nutrition Connected with Mental Health

Nutrition is a very important factor of mental health. Vitamins like Vitamin B help with anxiety emotions tiredness and a couple more. Another important thing is sleep and water. With lack of sleep you can get extremely tired emotions and a hard person to be around.  The same thing with out water.

Three things that I am going to do to help with me is eat more eggs because it carries vitamin B, get good sleep and drink more water. 

Another major factor of mental health is exercise. Exercise can help a lot because when you're depressed, you don't want to do a thing and you just want to stay in bed all day. Exercise can help you get back into feeling good. There is also an important way of thinking so instead of thinking upon your past mistakes and dwelling on them, what you should do is learn from them and figure out what you could do next time to not make this mistake twice. You should also not look into the future because that makes you anxious about things to come and this gives you anxiety but if you don't think about the future as much, it will be harder for anxiety to creep in. The final way of thinking is the way you should be thinking. What should you do is focus on that day or that moment. You make your best decisions when you are not under a lot of anxiety.

Covid 19

 COVID was an epidemic virus that hit the world in 2019 and reached its peak sometime in 2020. It stayed stubbornly until near the end of 2021. It affected thousands of families and it is still here during 2023.  I got COVID and I had a stuffy nose, my body ached, I was cold even though I had a temperature and I felt tired.  I just had a mild case but there were cases where people died.

 A simple explanation of a vaccine is they inject you with a tiny little bit of the illness so your body can learn how to fight against it.  There were a lot of people who were anti-vac for COVID and also a good amount of vaccinators.  It was a personal choice for people to get it or not.

Viruses

 A virus is a germ that when it gets into your body whether it's from air, touch, or food. It has these tiny little points that can only get into certain cells. That might mean you might get a cold but your dog can't. So after it inserts, it tells the cell it tells the brain to reproduce more of the virus. As it reproduces it has a chance to mutate so it can infect different cells. This is how COVID originated from bats but then mutated to be able to affect humans

Epidemics

 An endemic is what happens when you have an illness that you most likely get better from. It is always there for you to catch again. It usually is in a certain area of the world where its main contamination is. There are other places in the world that could not even have this sickness

A pandemic is when a disease is uncontrollable and unpredictable. Sometimes a pandemic will only affect people with certain living conditions. Other times it affects everybody

An epidemic is when one illness spreads insanely fast and new cases appear every day. Most of the time there is no vaccine for them. They are always international illnesses epidemics have become more common because nowadays there's a lot more flights and water traffic to other countries

This is my Lego light for our Game Boy colour. Unlike devices nowadays, it does not have a light on the screen, so you need some type of light above it to see the screen. With this, you can play it in the dark.

This is it in the dark.

This is what it looks like

Tires

One day my dad came to us and asked if we wanted to make a lot of money. Of course, I said yes and so did Jordan. Our dad told us that the store he works for, Fresh Co, needed the tires to be retreaded after they took them off the shopping carts. If you were to go to Fresh Co, there would still be tires on the carts because they take the wheels off the carts and replace them with last year's wheels. Basically, Fresh Co has double the amount of wheels that they would need. That way they don't need to wait for the wheels to get treaded. What they do is they take the wheels off the carts and then give them to someone to retread them. Then they take the wheels that they retreaded last year and put those on the cart the same day.

In this first picture Jordan is screwing into the tire.

In this picture you can see Jordan with a screwdriver and a hammer. He is prying off the old rubber part of the tire from the mechanism.

Here I am taking the bolt out that holds the wheel from the part that connects the wheel to it shopping cart

 Here is the invoice that we sent to our dad after we completed half of the tires.

Photosynthesis and Cellular respiration

 Photosynthesis and Cellular respiration

Photosynthesis is a process in where plant cell needs energy so they work together by taking the energy from the sun and turning that into a simple type of sugar. Cell respiration is when a plant takes oxygen and mixes it with the energy from the sun to make glucose. A lot of people think that photosynthesis and cell Respiration is quite similar even though they do entirely different jobs

The characteristics of living things is number one they Require energy whether it's to move as a safety defence the second thing is they respond to their environment 3rd they get rid of waste because everybody's got a poop 4th they reproduce And fifth they grow and develop

 Prokaryotic and eukaryotic

The difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic is that prokaryotic do not have a nucleus instead,  they have Nucleoid. Eukaryotic is the type of cell that's inside plant and animals

                                                               Cell Theory

Cell theory is a way for scientists to explain cells more easily than having to explain the entire cell organism. The cell theory has three main points. The first main point is cells can only replicate from existing cells. What happens is the existing cell splits in half, creating a second cell.

The next cell theory is that all living organisms are made out of cells, And the final cell theory is that cells are the simplest building blocks of life
