2050
Hi, bloggers today I am gonna discuss what will 2050 be like. I think that it won't be that much different from now but gas will be more expensive than it is now. The cars might look different but are basically the same except because they might be electric and have to charge at home. Buildings might look different because of space and resources. There might be more apartments instead of houses. Food might look and be different from fast food. Our idea is to make a car that runs off screams so it saves gas but anyone else in the car would not have a good ride. The way it works is that there is a built-in iPad that plays a video and then goes flat then the kids scream to power the iPad and then that goes into the car to make the car have the power to go and then charges the iPad then it repeats that prosses.

Using a microscope
Today in science we used a microscope to look at an onion epidermis. First, we had to make a slide to put the onion on so we got the thin onion epidermis and then stained it with iodine. Then we had to look through the lens and then we had to move the scope to see it better. When we did that it looked like a brick wall. I was crazy that something that big had small things in it. Here is a picture of onions and the epidermal cell.

Taste and smell
This term we have been testing if you can find out a flavor without seeing it or smelling it. The first one we did was the lollies. First, we had to get the colors and then one person had to hand it for us then we put it in our mouths. Some of the flavors we had were hard to taste
