Food Chains & Food Webs

Remember - A food chain is the smaller (one line) chain like:

Sun --> Plant (Apple Tree) --> Catepillar --> Duck --> Human

A Food Web is like a spider web that draws lines to multiple different food chains (think about when Bill Nye got caught in his food web - so many strings!)

Ancient China Websites

These are all websites that you can use for your Ancient China booklet.

Why don't we use Wikipedia for research? - Because anybody can go in there and switch the writing up. They can go in and give you bad information! It can be a good place to start for quick reference, but you never know who and when it was last updated, and if the person really knew what they were talking about!

Ancient China

To kick off our Ancient China unit..

Earth's Rotations - Somewhere on Earth

I forgot to post the video..

So a little review for you. Today we talked about how somewhere on Earth at any given time somebody is just waking up and the sun is rising, somewhere the sun is setting and people are having dinner, some places it is night time and people are tucked into bed!

We also talked about time zones, and how in Korea it is an hour and a half ahead of us, and in Europe it is like 6-7 hours behind us! In Vancouver, they are a whopping 15 hours behind us! That means that at some points they are living a day behind us! Now we know why we get jetlag on planes.. we are almost time traveling!
