In this last week I started Marine Biology class at the community center.  It is very fun and I learn a lot in it. We learned in this first week about plankton and what water is made of.  We got to look at plankton with a microscope after we caught them using a pipette.  The word "plankton" means to drift or wander.  Animal plankton are called zooplankton and they eat smaller plankton called phytoplankton.  My favorite kind of phytoplankton is a chain diatom because it is chained together which to me are like lifelines.  Another favorite was a sandworm or polychaeta, which I also liked because it has spikes with 2 eyes in the front, we acted this out in class and I acted the part of the eyes.  I very much look forward to this class every week! 

My next class that I started is a math class, using games or manipulatives.   We built towers with blocks and used multiplication to count the numbers of blocks on each tower.  After great fun in the open gym games with many friends, we ended the day with a swimming lesson.  It was a long but rewarding day.
