What is the height of a typical 6th grader at SAS? The height of a typical height of a sixth grader at SAS is 60.8 inches tall. I found this by finding the mean of the set of data I had. How do you compare? I am shorter that the height of a typical sixth grader because I am only 56 inches tall, where as the typical height of a 6th grader at SAS is 60.8 inches tall. Does the height of 6th grader have a lot of variability? How do you know? The height of a 6th grader at SAS has a little bit of variability because using the IQR (interquartile range), I know that if I calculated Q1, Q2, and Q3, I would find the quartile range, and it wouldn't be very big, which means that the height of a 6th grader doesn't vary (or doesn't jump from a small number to a very large number). I can also find this out by subtracting the smallest height from the largest height. Since the number is not very big in my set of data, the height of a 6th grader doesn't have a lot of variabilit...

In science, we are learning about electricity. First, we had to figure our if we were going to do it with someone, and I paired up with Hannah. We decided that we would do our quiz on inventors and inventions because it was kinda cheesy because there was a lightbulb, and there is usually a light bulb "on your head" when you get an idea, so we thought it would be cool to do that. Then, we needed to research, and find 10 questions to match the inventor and invention with. We put pictures for the invention, and names for the names. Then, we put brass fastener clips and we wired the matching questions in the back of the folder. Then, we had to make a circuit, and then all we needed to was put the wire on the matching inventor and invention! The reason the lightbulb lit up was because there was a closed circuit. I'm really happy with how this quiz turned out!

1) Are you proud of your literary essay? Why? I am very proud of my literary essay because I feel like I worked really hard on it because I spent a lot of time on it, and I tried to make every bit detailed, and to the best of it's ability. 2) What did you think of the visual process we used to generate our ideas? I thought that the visual process we went through to make our literary essay was really good because it helped me understand and think about how I needed to do things in my essay, such as make the lead strong and powerful. I'm really glad I used the outline because it helped me realize the steps I was going through to make my essay. 3) Choose your favorite sentence from your essay and copy it to your blog post.
