Computer Lab

          Today in computer lab we played a game that is based on world hunger.  The objective was to get food to the village.  There was six activities or objectives.  The one objective or activity that I kept on playing again and again for along time was when we had to drop the food in the village.  It was so cool how we got to do almost the same things that people that work with world hunger do but on a computer.

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, by C. S. Lewis, tells about four children, Peter,Susan, Edmund, and Lucy, who move in with a professor.  While at the house, the children find a secret wardrobe that leads to an enchanted world called Narnia.  While at Narnia, the children find themselves in the middle of a battle between Aslan(a good lion) and Jadis(Evil Queen) that will decide the fate of Narnia.  

Computer Lab

Today in computer lab we reviewed the math that we learned this year.  We got to do some activities and tests on algebra, area basics, 3-d figures, and so on.  After that we got to play fun games.  The one game that I played the most on was "Save Our Dumb Planet" which was very hard.  We also learned about a tiny computer that is $35.  I wonder what we will do next week.
