Bank Robberies (social studies)

There has been many robberies in the state of New Jersey. 53 days into 2009, 23 banks have been robbed. People think it is because of the economy and how it's really bad at the moment. Steve Seigle thinks that because of the economy is causing the rates of bank robberies to go up. In the past there has not been many bank robberies in the winter.

Israeli killed a doctor's kids ( social studies )

The article tells us that Dr. El-Eish's just went through a tragedy losing his 3 daughters to a explosion by an Israeli tank in mid January. The Israeli military said it was unintentional. Dr. El-Eish's is a gynecologist and received his medical degree in Israel, also has worked in Israeli hospitals. The Israeli military commander gave order to his troops to shoot at the suspicious figures (Dr. El-Eish's 3 daughters). The doctor is well known and well liked by Israelis. Dr. El-Eish's didn't see any warnings from the military to evacuate from his house or anything so he assumed it was safe until this horrific tragedy happened to his life. I think that what the Israeli military did was not nice because what if someone killed their kids. How would they feel?

Apply and Worm video about Newton's Laws

In school we are learning about Newton's First Laws. On the smartboard we have in our classroom we watched a interactive video about how Newton's Laws influences us. On the video we watched it showed an apple with a worm inside. This video is a very helpful way of teaching people Newton's Laws and how they work. I think this video was very funny and interesting.
