Geometry Project




Science Project

For my science project I am doing mealworms. My question for the project is How does vitamin E effect the metamorphosis of the mealworm to a beetle. We put a couple a grams into one of the colonies and let the others be the control. From the looks of it the vitamin E is making the transfermation go faster. They have more exoskeleton than the ones without the Vitamin E. Now i just have to write up the experiment and I'll be done.

Topic Essay

I am doing my NHD project on women during the 1920’s. My group was thinking of doing a performance. After World War I women started to gain their independent. When the men went off to war the women started to run the household. They started to get jobs and started to even have a voice in the government. With these changes their fashion started to change. They started to cut their hair to boy cuts and were wearing knee length skirts. With these changes a lot o problems arouse. Women started to go to jail if their skirt wasn’t the appropriate length. If their skirt didn’t cover their ankles then that was against the law. But our main focus is the fashion. This was a very important event in Fashion history. This showed that women had a more important role in the world.

With our performance we were going to put together a script. We were going to have a scene with the housewife, editor, beach, and we were going to think about another topic dealing with the fashion. We were going to explain how each of these groups of people was affected. We were going to also show the fashion and how much it changes in this decade. We were getting our sources from theatres and some are helping us write our scripts.

In conclusion, my history day project is Fashion in the 1920’s. We are doing a performance. We have a lot of resources and a project is going to win out of the performance group.

National History Day Project

I just change my NHD topic from fashion in the 1920s to Women Surffage. I am no longer doing a performance I'm am writing a paper. I didn't really have to find a lot of information because they kind of relate to each other. Women's fashion is related to Women Surffage because in the 1920s women was treated as slaves to their men but started to gain their indepdence, and in the 1920s women had gain their right to vote from the 19th amendment. But I know I got to narrow down my topic because it's to board.

Roger Bacon

Roger Bacon didn't really do anything in math but he was a teacher. He made the theory that there is a double way of coming to the knowledge of things, one through the experiments of science and the other through divine inspiration.

Religion in School

I think religion should be taught in school but it should be option like an extracurricular activity. A lot of people families really don't teach them religion and if they're curious they can see if they want to convert into any of the religion.
