Yesterday, we went to the zoo, and some of us got to see our animal, but others of us didn't. Our group didn't get to see our animal. We looked all over for it, even where it was supposed to be at, but we couldn't find it. We didn't get to learn much more of our animal, but we did see some other birds and ducks. 
     There was a duck that had a blue beak! That was interesting to see, there was also a fish, that had a huge head! I didn't know that fish could have a head bigger than there body, or a duck could have a blue beak, instead of yellow, or green. There were many more animals that we saw, but those were the most interesting to see. 

How do rainbows form? Rainbows form when light enters the water. The water of course has to reflect something. Each droplet could reflect a different color. You might ask why are they a different color, if the same light is all reflected into the water. The light that gets reflected is going to be a different color because of the different wavelengths and how they are all scattered all over the place.
     Once the water reflects everything, then the rainbow form. You might know the colors of the rainbow by ROYGBIV, meaning red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet, the colors of the rainbow. There is another color that goes along with that even though it is not on there it is ultraviolet, which comes after violet.

Why is the sky blue? Last week, we had to blog about this and here it is again. Maybe this time it is explained more clearly. The sky is blue because of the light that reflects on it. The sky takes in all colors, but it probably will only reflect blue.The colors that the sky take in are always the same. The colors are always taken in by an angle, so if the colors would scatter, then the sky could be a different color.
     The sky is actually blue because of the scattering. Just like I said above if the colors would scatter then the sky could be a different color. Scattering makes the colors go straight in one direction, and then the sky absorbs the colors and reflects only the blue. That is why we see the sky as blue.

In science our group is currently working on the zoo project. In this project we were assigned an animal, and we have to learn all about it. We have to know things like what it eats, does it get eaten, where does it live, where it's from, and many other things like that. Each person in the group got assigned part of the work, and they each had to complete with their part. Each person got something different to research or look up. Once we are finished with the project, we will all have put together all of our information and have different documents describing about the animal.
     At one point we will be able to see our animal at zoo. While we are at the zoo we will put up a poster that has a link and a QR code. That link and QR code will take visitors and other people who see and scan that, to the animal page where the whole seventh grade has been posting all of their work for their animal. Maybe the website won't be complete by then, but it should be.
