The Man Who Saved Central City And Who Killed Osama Bin Laden.

In the last unit for HUMANITIES in the class called Stories, we are learning about world heroes. We had to see what different kinds of heroes there are and how they act. For this Action Project we had to work with a partner and find and fictional hero and nonfictional hero. My Partner was VD who selected a fictional hero. I was challenged to select a nonfictional hero and that selection was the most difficult part of this project. I overcame that by choosing the man who killed Osama Bin Laden because I decided he was an important hero. I had most fun was finding everything I needed for my project.

The two heroes we chose were Robert J. O’Neill, the Navy Seal who shot Osama Bin Laden, and Oliver Queen, the lead character in the TV program “Arrow.” We chose Robert O’Neill because he was brave and self-sacrificing when he went on his almost impossible mission. He is a hero to many people because he killed a person who was a great threat. He wanted to serve his country and make the world a better place. We chose Oliver Queen because he is down to earth. He is a good man. He wants to save people and protect his city. He wants to do right by his father. Both of them are good at what they do. They both train hard to become the best.

It may not seem like Robert J. O’Neill and Oliver Queen are very alike, but they have many things in common.   For one, they are fighting and killing for a very good cause. They are protecting a place they call home. Robert J. O’Neill was protecting the United States on his journey, and Oliver Queen was protecting Starling City. In addition, both men are constantly risking their lives on their journeys, in an effort to save the lives of innocent civilians. They are both humble about their work, and they don’t like to show off. They are both very selfless men who make the world a safer place.

Wood Bison Are They Good Or Not?

For the first class for the year, for STEAM we are in the last Population unit. In unit 3, we went through a journey to learn about our population and how it is growing. We examined the evidence for our population and other species. Seeing how much their population had years ago compare to now. We went to a cemetery to examine what year people die and what year people were born. We had to compare the dates of when people were born and see how many people died for a specific year. The last AP was about finding an organism and compare it to humans population. I chose Bisons for my organism. The thing that I had the most trouble with was the recording because I am self-conscious of my voice and when I record, I always talk faster than I normally do. What I did to overcome it was read clearly and not to speak quickly. The thing that I was most proud of was the math part, graph and finding the facts of the Action Project because I could understand that part and do a good job on it.

The Gorilla

In this unit we red and study fables. We looked at many kinds of fables. We also learned how a story can show a lesson from a story. We watch a movie called The End Game. We had to see which characters is books or The End Game were dynamic, static, flat, protagonist, antagonist, and others from any kind of books or movies that share a lesson. We had to see what we can learn from that. The thing that I thought I did the best was creating the story. What I had trouble with was making the picture. I overcame that by drawing it slow and taking a time.

Inaglry, Brocken. (2009) Male Gorilla. Web; Wiki

There once was a family of gorillas, a father named Alec, a mother named Eve and their three sons. The oldest son was named Ernest, the middle son was named Ivan and the youngest son was named Jobe. Alec looked like a buff tall gorilla with brown eyes and a scar on his face. Eve had brown eyes and she was soft spoken. Ernest, the oldest son, was the leader of the three brothers. He was always in control. He was blind in one of his brown eyes. Ivan the middle son was the brave one, he would do anything. He had brown eyes. And little Jobe, he was small but he was smart. He had blue eyes, not like his father, mother, and brothers who had brown. Alec and Eve were criminals, and they brought their sons to their criminal life, but Jobe was different. He did not want to be a criminal, he wanted to be a singer. Whenever they would go on missions to steals priceless artifacts he would not go. He would stay home and practice singing. Home for Jobe was his place where he could escape from his parents’ criminal activities.

One day when his family was out stealing priceless artifacts, he went for a walk. It was windy, and suddenly something blew in his face. It was a piece of paper. He looked at the paper and read it. It said, “Want to become a singer, well come to 2755 North Banana Street and do an audition to go on tour with the Gorillaz and be their singer.” Jobe smiled when he read it, until he read the bottom that said, “The audition cost is only 20,000 beans.” Jobe felt frustrated because he did not have that kind of money. He stormed off back to his house and retreated to his room. Three hours later his family arrived back from their stealing spree. He did not talk to them for the rest of the night. In the morning his family was gone. He knew that they were stealing stuff. He went out to find a job so that he could pay for the audition.

After a while, he found a construction site where an apartment complex was being built. He had an interview. The boss liked him and said he could start work the next day as an apprentice. When he arrived back home his family was there. They asked where he had been and he said, “out with friends.” He went to his room and closed his door. He started to write a plan to see how long it would take for him to get the money he needed. He would earn 5,000 beans per month. He was happy that it would only take 4 months to earn the money needed for the audition fee. The next morning he was going to go out. His family was home. They tried to persuade him to go with them on a theft mission, but no matter how hard they tried he said no. When he said no for the third time he just ran out the door and slammed it closed. He was going to go to the gorillamart to get the tools he needed for his new job.

When he finished buying the tools he went home, and prepared for his first day on the job. Ten hours later his family finally showed up at home and they looked happy. Jobe asked, “Why are you guys so happy.” His father said, “Ernest just stole the banana from the Grand Gorilla statue’s hand.” The Grand Gorilla statue was like the Statue of Liberty for gorillas, and the banana in its hand was made from solid gold. Then Jobe went in his room. His brothers Ernest and Ivan already there going through Jobe’s belongings. Ernest said, “You are smart. Why do you have books? You should be stealing things.” The family heard a knock on the door before the brothers could say anything, the police busted in. The police yelled and asked for Ernest. Alec and Eve said, “There is no one here by that name.” The police pushed them out of the way and searched the house. They finally found Ernest in Jobe’s room. They arrested Ernest and left. Ivan said, “Now who will lead us?” Jobe stayed in his room with a grin on his face because his mean brother had been arrested.

The next day Jobe went to work. When he got there his boss said, “you are fired because you’re part of a criminal family.” Jobe went home mad. When he arrived he told his parents about being fired. His parents said to him, “well why don’t you join us for a mission.” Jobe said, “why not?” When they got to the bank, they immediately announced a holdup. In the middle of putting the money in bags the police showed up and arrested Alec, Eve, Ivan, and Jobe. Jobe said, “I had no part of this.” The police just looked at him and laughed. They put him in the police car and drove to jail.

A year later Jobe was still in prison and he thought about what had happened a year ago. He thought to himself, “Don’t always follow a crowd. If I had not followed my family I would not be here. I would already be singing with the band.”

The North Pole

For the first class for the year, for STEAM we are in the second population unit. In unit 2, we went through a journey to learn where we were from. This unit introduces Darwin and his theories on Natural Selection as a mechanism for evolution. We examined the evidence for Evolution and came to understand how changes are selected. The thing that I had the most trouble with was the recording because I am self-conscious of my voice and when I record, I always talk faster than I normally do. What I did to overcome it was read clearly and not to speak fast. The thing that I was most proud of was the math part of the Action Project because I could understand that part and do a good job on it.

DOGS

The following is a list of ten dogs I choose that will be released into the North Pole. I have put them in order from lightest to heaviest and marked the Minimum, 1st Quartile, Median, 3rd Quartile and maximum.

Pagoda 8 lbs MIN

Hawk 12 lbs Q1
Unitas 17 lbs
Hayden 19 lbs
19.52 lbs MEDIAN
Dorsett 20.06 lbs
Jarvis 22.81 lbs
Kuzco 40 lbs Q3
Pelican 42.12 lbs
Chiarina 46.5 lbs MAX

MAX: 46.5

MIN: 8

RANGE: 38.5

MEAN: 22.748

MEDIAN: 19.52

MODE: NO MODE

1776.85 / 9 = 197.42
√197.42

Standard Deviation= 14.05

Since this set of animals has a standard deviation of around 14, this means that the whole group is 14.05.

When we choose animals from a group, I choose dogs for my animal. We had to choose 3 out of 10 who we think will survive in the new environment and pass on their genetic traits. The are two ways for choosing them for the North Pole. The first is Combination. A combination is where order does not matter. Another way is Permutation, which is where order does matter.

10 C 3

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

                                                                                                                                                              

7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 1

 10, 5, 9, 3, 8

3, 2, 1

5x3x8= 120

This means that there are 120 way they can go in no matter what order.

10 P 3

10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

10x9x8= 720

This means that there are 720 they can go in where order does matter.

For my animals being put in the North Pole, it will be a combination because it doesn't matter how or where you put them in, there will still be a group of three out of ten.
