 Welcome to a new post. This is for Unit 2 of the STEAM class Population. This class focused on adaptation and evolution. We discussed how animals have adapted over time to be better suited for their environment. We talked about mutations and watched a video of bacteria traveling through antibiotic by developing mutations to pass through them. In this class the central tendencies in math became important and was used more frequently up to the Action Project. Like in the last unit there was another dissection. This time we dissected an owl pellet or owl regurgitation. In my dissection I found three skulls of what looked like rodents and some other bones as well. This dissection did not smell as bad as the worm. For the AP I chose to look at the North American river otter. With these amazing mammals I tried to predict what they would be like in at least 500 years and made a data set from ten river otters. One important aspect from this AP is our group of animals being transported to ...

 Hello and welcome back to the exciting coding post. In the class, Computer Science we have continued to code using python. This unit relates to the last unit and post that was made about Inputs. There I made a calculator and a form letter that can function when the user types in inputs that respond to some of the computer's questions. For this unit we have made a chatbot that will take inputs but also respond to the user. Chatbots are used on many different websites. There are some that are solely dedicated to having a computer talk to you based on your questions and answers. Some websites where it asks if you want to speak to a worker or other person use a chatbot to answer the user and direct them to a worker. In this piece of code I included some questions, a random response generator, and a few other modules and functions. If you would like to try the chatbot out for yourself you can. All you need to do is answer the questions it gives you on the right side of the code box....

In this unit of Stories, we have been talking about fables. This is the second Action Project for this class. During this class we read some of the Aesop Fables and Panchatantra Fables. In these fables we observed the characters, personification, and symbolism. We also talked about how animals are given different human characteristics in fables. An owl for example is very wise or a monkey is curious. Symbolism is very important in a fable because it can help lead the protagonist to the lesson at the end. We talked about different characters in the story such as the protagonist, antagonist, and confidants. For this Action Project we were asked to create a fable. For my fable, I chose to have two tigers as my characters. I decided to make the lesson in my fable is to have patience. I chose this value because it is important to be patient because it can take away stress and be calm and centered. The Two Tigers This is the story of two tigers.. The first tiger was named Titus, and his brot...
