Chemistry
Hi my name is Adam. My project is about chemistry. It was very interesting. I made a sugar molecole out of paper. I presented it to the class and they loved it. Chemistry has lots of information like how sugar is made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
Dance is a Sport By Indiana
This quarter all of the Ventures students has to write a 5 paragraph persuasive essay. Once we have that finished we must give a speech bassed on the essay. My speech is about why dance is a sport. Some of my main points were that it is a strenuous activity and takes a lot of time, it is competitve, and it fits the definition of a sport. I was very proud when i finished my essay. I am excited and a little nervous to give the speech to the class. Overall i was very happy with the way this project turned out.
