Entomophagy

Hi its Aylah here to talk about bugs! Here is a weird fact; I eat Crickets! I know I know it sounds weird but flavor them with some barbecue sauce and honey mustard it tasted great. Bugs are everywhere so just embrace them (And eat them!)

Try something new every day and it will feel great. Bugs are a living thing so we should respect them to! Be kind to all animals!

Feb. Precept

  The Feb. Precept this month is: “It is better to know some of the questions than to know all of the answers” which is a quote by James Thurber. My Theory on this Precept is that it is better know some of the questions because you can branch out ideas from a question, while if you know the answer, it won’t do you any good because that’s it, once you know the answer, you’re done, there isn’t a good reason to continue what you are working on, other than trying to find other answers or ways to solve it. While, a question will open your mind up to different possibilities because if you get a question, the first thing you do is try to solve it, but if you stay and keep thinking about the question, your mind will almost always find out other ways you can solve it or understand it. A question is really powerful in many ways, while an answer is rock bottom, which is no fun at all. I’m not saying knowing the answer is horrible or bad, or that you shouldn’t always cut to the chase, or it is bad to think for the answers, I’m saying that if there is a question, try to maximize your understanding of it, to make your answer 100% accurate or correct. In my opinion, I fully agree with Mr. Thurber on his quote.

A connection I have to this quote is when I would get a bunch of questions on homework or a test or something, and I would always just think about the answer and have a difficult time doing so, so instead of that technique, I started breaking down the question or try to understand it more. Say the question was “You have 10 apples, I take away 3, how many do you have?” if I didn’t understand it, which I do, I would sit and think, than to try to find an answer, usually, if it’s a complicated question with big words, instead of just ignoring them and finding the answer with the words I know, I would figure out those words, then, I would start thinking about how I would answer it, or break it down. It’s always better to know the questions than to know the answers, because a question can bring up so many different ways, possibilities, or techniques.

My free-verse poem

Books  

If we all had some books,                                                                                                 

Well learn more about Captain Hook,                              

We could also know about Fantasy

Like the boy Peter Pan,

Some say he’ll never be a man.

 

When we read some books,

We could all be good at school,

No one will be a fool,

And now everyone is cool.

 

When  we are older

We could get jobs like a yodler,

And many many more,

That’s why we should all read books.

WISHES

Wishes, O wishes if I had any wishes,

I could save the world from running out of fish’s

When you’re running out of wishes

You could ask for some more,

But i n the end be careful what you wish for.

December Precept

“Fortune favours the bold.” is Mr. Browne’s December precept. In this paragraph, I’ll be explaining what I think the meaning is. I think “Fortune favours the bold” means that those who are brave or courageous get a better future/fortune. For example: Terry Fox was diagnosed with leg cancer, and it changed his life dramatically. When he survived cancer, he looked at all those kids who haven’t, and he decided to run around Canada to raise awareness and money for Cancer of any sort. He was bold and brave, and his fortune was being famous for his courageous act.

 

A bold act has a different fortune every time, a fortune is a chance of luck OR an earn of money, but in this case I think it is a good future and that is what I think the precept means.

Inquiry Journal

Jan 2.

 

Hi I’m doing my inquiry project on writing a story. I have been brainstorming and been starting to write but of course I still have a ways to go. I find it fun to let my imagination run free. I’m doing both my rough draft and my good copy on a computer. That’s what I have done this Week.

 

Feb 15.

I have just written 2 more pages of my story. I’m getting more interesting as I go on. Here’s part of my story so you can see what I’m working on.

 

Then that night they went hunting. Daniel took the shotgun Raine took the bow and Hunter took a Bow and they all had knives. They swiftly moved through the trees and then Daniel climbed a sturdy oak tree and she aimed at a big moose. She shot straight on 3 times and then Hunter and Raine took care of it from there. Daniel went on without them and she got a Caribou an Elk and a Deer. Hunter and Raine caught up to her before she went on every time.
