What science ideas did you learn?

This week in science class we talked and learned about photosynthesis and respiration. We made flow charts and talked about what we wrote. For respiration, we wrote what we inhale and exhale. We called it the starting stuff, and the ending. We even did an experiment. What we did, was inhale into a jar, then with a machine thing we found out how much oxygen was in it. Another thing we did this week, was learn more about O2,H2O, CO2 and what they are. We also learned how much of that goes in respiration, and how much comes out.

How do you learn these ideas?

One way we learned some of our ideas from was homework. For example, our homework was to create a flow chart for photosynthesis and respiration. That made us do research and it gave us a better idea on what it was. Then the next day we discussed about it. Discussion is another way we learn our ideas. This is how we learned more about O2,H2O,CO2.

Why is it important to know these ideas?

It is important to know about the things we learned in class because it might show up in the future. For example, knowing about respiration, and it is important to know what else does and how. Also, if your job in the future has something to do with being a science teacher or a scientist it's important to know. Also, it's a good thong to know important facts because the questions might come up in the older grades.
