More measurements and conversions

1. Watch this video and think about being out in nature.  Whatever comes to your mind, whether its relaxation, excitement, interest, curiosity, or this is something you've never seen, write down those thought in your journal.



2. As we saw in our Smart Board lesson, there are easy steps to converting fluid measurements.  For example, two (2) cups is equal to one (1) pint.  Here is another chart you can use at home if you need to convert liquid measurements.  Follow this link.

    "The Mountains of Cashiers, North carolina"
    What I saw in the video was alot of trees, tree trunks, mountains, and the sky . Everything looks peaceful that would be enjoyable to relaxe. I dont see any animals in the video, and the clouds look very fake.

    When the video started, I thought I would not like it. However I kind of do now. The sun was very bright in the 9th picture. Anyone would love this video, unless they are really boring. You sould watch this video.

    If I went there I would play and roll down the hills. I would also climb the mountins. It will be very fun to be there. I would know to bring extra things with me because in the pictures I see that it is cold there.

  2. The mountins were cool,there were really big ones too. Some were flat and smooth.
    It felt like I was there. I've been on a mountin before,I went to the top and said [I'm king of
    the world!!]and it echoed.


    I saw some things besides the mountins. The first thing I saw was a beautiful and
    peaceful sun set. There was a owl sitting on a branch. Also, there was a forest in fornt of the
    mountins. The video was breathtaking and spictakular.

    What I just saw was so beautiful. During the video, I felt that it was so peaceful and that it was very relaxing. It looked like a new world where nobody would cry or fight. Watching this video makes you feel peaceful ,calming ,comforting ,relaxing and stress free. The mountains where breathtaking and enjoyable. It was just so cool.
    If I ever went there I wouldn't want to leave. I wouldn't want to leave because its so awesome. I would sleep in a tent on top of a mountain. Also,I would climb a mountain and look for new things.
    I saw a lot of thing and all of those thing are really cool. I saw big trees that where super green! I also saw the sun ,the birds ,the grass and the mountains. Seeing all of this amazed me. It amazed me because how perfect it was.

    The video I saw today was very breath taking. In it there were indescribable views, plus, mountains, trees, the sky, and clouds. Also, over the mountains you see a beautiful sunset. If you could see the video you'd be amazed.
    I've seen the video and this is how I feel. When I look at the sky and clouds it feels soothing. The mountains make me feel like hiking. Trees make me feel like climbing them. The plants make me feel pretty. What do you think?

    My feelings were that if people litter they are killing the Earth. I hope everyone can help keep the planet clean. I hope people start putting trash into trash cans. A recycling program would be great. By recycling helps clean the planet because they use the recycled products to turn it into something new.
    What I saw in the video. I saw beautiful mountains, I may not of seen animals but it's beautiful. I saw tree's that are stunning. I think the sky was so peacefull and calming so it was beautiful. The things are awesome.
    Viewing the photos gave me a peaceful and safe feeling. I felt very happy because it was awesome.

    In the forest I saw three white doves in a tree, but they flew away. On the top of the mountain there were a lot of trees. Over the mountain there was a long beautiful stream. The experience was awesome.
    I like the video. In the video there there was a lot of trees. I didn't think I was gonna like it. I liked it so much I watch it three times.
    In the forest I was so tranquil. It's so open like plains. The air is so fresh and clear. The grass is so clean and comforting.
