Reflection Paragraph:
This activity was really fun! I got to see how my heart rate goes up and how it goes down. We used a stethoscope to track our heart rate and it was also really fun to use them. It was a really great experience to use the stethoscope and to learn about our heart rate and actually get to move around.
1. The activities that raised my heart rate the most were jumping in place and running in place. These raised my heart rate because I was moving a lot.
2. The activities that raised my heart rate the least were sitting in a chair, thinking of scary thoughts, and laying down. These didn't raise my heart rate because I didn't move that much.
3. It was because I put the order in which I started of so for example, first I did laying down and then I did sitting, then I did scary thoughts, then I did jumping, and finally I ran in place. So I do believe that it is accurate. 
4. I noticed that when I got more active, my heart started to beat faster and faster because it was pumping blood faster. I also realized that I was more tired easily than when I was just laying on the ground relaxing. 
5. (Didn't use book) 
I think that my heart rate changed when I was more active because the heart was trying to pump blood so that the whole body could get blood. 

Paragraph:
This experience was fun and extremely hard. After at least the 5th trail, my muscles were aching in pain! They hurt so bad but I managed to get through it. I realized that after the 5th trail, my score went up a lot because I pushed harder and didn't cry. I thought that it would go down and down and down but I guess it didn't. That was surprising to me and very weird. It was really fun and I enjoyed it a lot. But, it hurt. =D
1. It was difficult because you weren't able to switch to a different hand or your hand couldn't help you to make it through the pinching without stopping. It was also hard because my muscles hurt and wanted more rest than just 10 seconds.
2. Before, my hands didn't hurt at all because I didn't want to pinch. During, my hands hurt a lot because they had to pinch for a long time. After, my hands were in pain but after like 5 minutes of rest, they felt much better. 
3. My data changed overtime because the first trial, it was about 140. Then, by the 5th trial, it went down a lot, but then it went up again because my muscles tried . It was really surprising because I thought the data would just go down and down.
4. Some errors were: My left hand was trying to help my right hand to push. My clothespin fell out of my hand. I tried to use more than 2 fingers to push.
5. It changed because, at first, it was ok, but then over time it started to hurt. Then my hand believed that it could do it so it got stronger. It pushed farther like athletes. They push so they can make it all the way.
6. Maybe from the stomach. You eat something, then the stomach separates it and turns it to energy. Then, that energy separates all around the body so that muscles can have energy. The same with water, we drink, it separates. Also with oxygen, we breath, separates. (This is what I think!)
7. Work them out more so that the muscles grow stronger. 
8. Believe that you can do it and try hard. 

Questions:
1. How has your first round of KinderPals gone
2. What were some differences between the two experiences (AM and PM)?
3. How did you improve your skills as a KinderPal from the first experience to the second?
4. In what specific ways did you help improve your students' self-esteem?
5. Why should other schools do a program similar to KinderPals? Is it worth the time spent?

Answers:
1. My first round of KinderPals was really good. I met two new kindergartners, Jemma and Sara. They both are amazing and they both like to draw and color. Sara is from Egypt, which is really cool, and Jemma is amazing at drawing! I like my KinderPals!

TECHNICAL GLITCH - EVERYTHING DELETED. :( I HAD A LOT. MR. SOLARZ SAW THIS.

1. Our model needed 3 bones to operate. Our model needed 2 muscles to also operate.

2. It was similar to the real muscles because it worked the same way a real muscle would work. It was different to a real muscle because it didn't look like one. 

3. It wold affect the way of the model because then the two "bones" wouldn't hold together, they would just fall apart. If they were torn, they wouldn't hold together that well, and if they were overstretched, the model would be big and flimsy. 

4. Ligaments are what holds two bones together so they won't fall apart. Tendons are tough tissue that attach to your body's muscles and it connects to your bones. Cartilage is in-between the bones. It is a soft material that keeps the bones from rubbing against each other. 

5. It was fun because it was extremely creative. You had to think of what materials to use and how the model was going to move. It was also fun because you get to learn about the arm in your body and see how it is alike to the model.

6. It was challenging because sometimes, me and my partner didn't know different things (like tendons) and we had to search them up. It was also challenging because we had to get the model to move, which was hard.
