My brother wrote this about me

I went on a field trip and we wrote thank you notes, we learned about being a good citizen, we made art out of sticks tied together with grass and we asked each other get to know you questions.

I'm trying to find an equation to sove any system of linear equations, but I'm still pretty far from coming up with a soulution.

I also listened to a podcast called american history tellers about the salem witch trials, it's very interesting learning about them.

In 1692 a few girls started acting as if tormented by demons, they accused several local women of witchcraft. They were tried, found guilty and sent to jail. More girls started claiming to be victims and accusing more people and it quickly escalated out of control. In total 200 people were accused of witchcraft and 20 people were executed.

In my previous post I had the "One L" rule highlighted because I have trouble remembering the rule.

I've been reading Atomic Habits. In the book he says that most people think that successful people don't feel discouraged like other people do, but they do. The difference between successful people and unsuccessful people is that the successful people continue despite the discouragement they feel. He also says that you need to form your identity on who you are, not what you are. 

I also figured out an exact formula for Pascal's Triangle where R is the column and L is the row.

I'm going to try to do one high school biology unit a week.

LL5

We went through level one learning coursebook, these are my notes.

 At the end of one syllable words usually double s, f, or l when they come right after a short vowel.

I learned about chunking, which is where if you don't understand something you can try to understand the first "chunk", then the next, and the next until you understand the whole thing

I learned that if you have a consonant before the "k" there is no "c".   "truck" "trunk"

the suffix ful has

ONE L

grateful

hopeful

helpful

careful

we are doing this so I can learn grammar, we decided to start at a low level to review all the rules

 I found an interesting evolution simulator called "The life engine"!

I also watched a video about why the bell curve

shows up everywhere and one about why the more

certain you are about the position of a quantum particle the less certain you can be of it's momentum.

I tried redoing the equation I made, but I ended up with the same result.

I also finished enders game this week, I thought it was very interesting. The ending was so sad though.

I like to program in scrach and I made this!

This summer I went to lagoon and it was really fun!

This year I want to learn python and make something cool.

This week I learned about systems of equations, and I figured this out

It's an equation for solving systems of equations with two unknowns, so if you had something like 

you could plug that into the equation to get

then solve that to get

then solve for x

There appears to be something wrong with this, but I can't figure out what. y=2.5 and x=1.5 dont work for the equations, but it's worked with other examples. I'll try to figure it out and post my results in the next learning log.

I also wached videos on entrepreneurship by Richard Branson, who has a net worth of 2.9 billion dollars.
