First Candy Graph


This is my candy graph. I learned that there is a lot of candy in the world. From the people that emailed me so I could put them on the graph mostly like any chocolate and Reeses Peanutbutter cups. Third they like DARK chocolate (I hate it!! But mom LOVES it! Yeck!), fourth is plain chocolate. That tells me people just love chocolate!! People also like red vines and swedish fish a lot (four people like each).
This information is important because I will know to make a whole lot of chocolate for my store!!

CHOCOLATE!!!!


I have learned about chocolate lately. I learned that there are many different kinds of chocolate. The Hershey Chocolate Factory has to break the cocoa beans in their breaking chamber. After that, they take out the cocoa butter and chocolate liquore. They mix it with milk, sugar and a little of the cocoa butter and liquore. If you want to see how they do it, check out this site!!

White chocolate is just the cocoa butter, milk and sugar. That's my favorite kind of chocolate.

I am also doing a survey. I emailed friends and family to see what their favorite candies are. Today, we looked at the data and did data entry. I learned that data entry is boring!!! Soon, I will post the graph from my data! So far, lots of people like chocolate and Reeses Peanut Butter Cups the most!

Stuart Little's Adventure




I just finished reading Stuart Little by E.B. White. In the picture that I drew, Stuart is driving his car at night. He is looking for a bird named Margalo. She is Stuart's best friend. I liked this book because it is adventerous. I learned that I should not make bad decisions like when Stuart wasn't being flexible when Harriet was thinking of solutions.

I had fun in Boston!!! I went to the Aquarium and I saw a shark! It was really big. There were two divers in the tank with the sharks. One was feeding them and one was at the bottom doing something. I don't know what. I also saw a Horseshoe crab. They have blue blood. We went to Paul Revere's grave stone. It said, "Revere's tomb." It was really fun in Boston.

Stuart Little

Stuart Little is a mouse that was born from a human. He is really small. He has a brother named George. So far, I like the Little family. They are funny. I wonder what's going to happen at the boat race? Is Stuart going to win or Leroy?


What is a colloid??






A colloid is a mixture of molecules that will and won't dissolve. This colloid is oobleck or blue goo. It is made of corn starch and water. The corn starch particles are too big to dissolve and float through water. Colloids are fun. Examples of other colloids are milk, fog, jello, oil paint and mayonnaise.
