 * Remember the golden years......I am Anthony, and I will never forget the year I had with the dynamic Blonds. I had blast with them. When I came the first day of school, I was nervous, and didn't know how evything worked. Now when I look back on that day I seem like I was a baby. 6th grade has nothing to worry about.**




 * 1) The **teachers**-Mrs.Fuini-Hetten, Mr.Laub, Mrs. Yurconic, And Mr. Lane
 * 2) The **parties**- Greek Week, Chinese New Year, Ancient Egyptian Party, Book Parties, and an Easter egg Hunt!
 * 3) The **projects**- 3-D Greece maps, ancient city maps, Make an ocean animal, Do a chinese Ney Year project(I got to do Inventions)
 * 4) [|Studyisland][[[|http://www.studyisland.com]|]]
 * 5) [|Think][[[|http://www.think.com]|]]
 * 6) **MATH CHANTS-** Integers are whole numbers on a number line. Negative and positive, now isn't that DIVINE!

Because of science this year I view the world diferently. I now look at the world like it is a huge textbook. When I went on the outdoor program with Mrs. Fuinihetten I learned that marcro organisms can tell us how polluted a stream is, and that inspired me to care for the animals and plants. I also changed my view when Mr. Shweyer took my class to the Fish Hatchery. I realized if aquatic life have clean water you get a larger population of fish. Another reason I view the world differently is during the outdoor program when Mrs.Yurconic took us outside to look for geometry in wildlife. After that days leson, I realized that math is always around us. From that day on, I am always picking up grass, leaves, and bark looking for tessalating shapes, and different shapes. As you can see, I now view the world very differently.
 * SCIENCE**

In science this year I learned a lot about the ocean and the animals that live there. Because of science, I learned about so many animals and now I can even name some of them when I look at pictures that depict them. Throughout the year I learned about coral reefs and the animals that live in the coral reef. After watching some videos I was inspired to help the enviroment. The animal that I researched on was the portugese man of war.****



Also in science, I did a huge project on Ocean Locations. This project taught me where all the oceans are located and what there tempetures are. This project also enhanced my Technological resources by making me make a internet site.[|Ocean locations]

During the third quater we learned about Newtons Laws of motion. 1st law- When I was in the car with my mom she slammed on her brakes. The car stopped, but I kept going 60 mph and got jolted forward. 2nd law-When I rolled a ball on my lawn the ball slowed down because friction acted upon it.

In the beginning of the year my class took a field trip to Back Oven Knob. While we were studying I got to learn about all of the silhouettes of birds. Now when I am in the car or outside I can point out a bird and name it. When I name that bird I feel really proud of myself for accomplishing something that no one in my family have even thought to say.

This year we also took a field trip to the aquarium. In the aquarium we saw lots of animals including aquatic life, mammals, reptiles,birds,and even amphibians. I even got to see a shark!!!. When we went, we learned about the enviroment and how animals live in there bioms.

This year in Mrs.fuinihetten's class we had reading circles and projects that have helped me improve on many of my reading skills. Including. ..
 * LANGUAGE ARTS**
 * Asking questions
 * summarizing
 * predictions
 * connections
 * themes
 * rising action
 * falling action
 * climax
 * and many many more skills

This year I leaned so many new words and my favorite word is **vegabond**. Vagabond is my favorite word because it sounds so totally awesome. This website has all of the words I learned**.[|Vocabulary in 6th grade hardest vocab level]**
 * __VOCABULARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!__**

I learned and mastered so many parts of speech that it is hard to remeber some of them, because I improved my grammer and I have gotten so much better at speaking. Now I don't here my mom complaining about my speech as much. Here is a list of what I improved on.
 * verbs
 * nouns
 * possessive nouns
 * adjectives
 * plural nouns

Also this year i have improved my oral speaking skills. Since, Mrs.Fuinihetten made us speak loudly while we presented i now speak very clearly and loudly. When i am doing an oral report i am always think of Mrs.Fuinihetten yelling"WHAT". Also, since we worked as a group (purple and orange) I am not nervous anymore when I speak in front of a large crowd! I believe that i have improved my oral speaking skills greatly.

In math this year I enhanced my metric unit knowledge, and by doing this I have found out how to convert metric units. I also learned how to divide and multiply fractions. One of the most intrseting, but hard subject we learned in math was the Pythagorean Theory. The equation for this theory is a2 x b2=c2
 * MATH**

During this math year I also did a project where we had to connect real world hobbies to math. The hobby I choose was football. >
 * Math Concepts**
 * Mean-to find the average of the teams scores, you add all of the scoresand than divide that number by the number of games played.
 * Range- to find the range of all the scores, you need to subtract the lowest number from the highest number and you find your range.
 * Perimeter-I can connect to perimeter because, to find the perimeter of a football field you add up[ all of the sides. The field is 100 yards long, and the endzones are each ten yards. The total base of the field is 120yards. The height of the football field is 50 yards. So, add up 120+120+50+50=330 yards. That means the perimeter is 330 yards.
 * Area- To find the area you use the formula BxH. The base equals 120yards and the height is 50 yards. Multiply them together and you get the area of a football field, which is 6000 sq.yds.
 * Intergers- I can relate to intergers, because in football, intergers make every yard on the football field. That means a football field is a huge number line from 0-100.
 * Under Estimate- I can make a connection to under estimating, because in football if you underestimate the distance that the quaterback is giong to throw the ball, you won't catch the football.

This year in social studies I learned that a city can only be called a city if it has a government, engineering, social structure, arts, agriculture, and education. The civilization I thought passed these goals with flying colors was Ancient Greece. The Greeks invented the catapult, and not even mentioning the beautiful art. In Greece they built wonderful collumns, and a huge coliseum that held the olympics. I found amazing that they even stopped wars during the olympics![|]
 * SOCIAL STUDIES**

This year in writing i have improved all of my skills greatly. I am now writing longer passages that keep the readers attention,and i use a larger vocabulary when i write. The skill that i think i most improved on was my persuasize writing.. I also enjoyed doing free writes. I now like to write, but am still a computer adict.
 * Writing**

This year in tech ed i learned how to make an animated movie, how to use desktop publisher, and how technology is used in evry day life. Before tech ed i never realized how much technology we use evry day. Also when i came to the middle school there was a couple new programs i didn't know how to use. Including mircosoft power point. I have mastered in power point, because Mrs.Fuinihetten made us use it throughout the whole year.
 * Technology**


 * Thank you for reading my wiki space. I have learned so much through out the whole year. I hope that in seventh grade i get chalenged above my level like this year. OO ya and one more thing, I want to thank the dynamic duo for teaching me this year. My favorite topic this year was social studies, because of the parties and fun way of teaching.
