Observation 1 I feel pressure in my joints because weight from my body is constantly being placed and removed on them. I feel pressure on them when weight is put on them. Observation 2 I am panting because my body is trying to get oxygen. My lungs use lots of oxygen when I run, and my lungs are trying to get oxygen so I can breath. Observation 3 My knees are cracking because I am moving them. Since I am constantly moving the bones around it, the joint cracks repetitively. Observation 4 I feel pain in my calf because I put pressure on it. When I put my foot on the ground, weight goes on it, which makes the calf sore. Observation 5 I feel pain on the bottom of my foot because it gets weight dropped on it. When it hits the hard inside of my shoe, the weight of my body is placed on my foot, which is right above it. Observation 6 I am sweating because it helps maintain body temperature by cooling us down. There are millions of glands in our bodies, and when we start getting overheated, we sweat. Observation 7I am getting slower because I am getting tired. I am burning my energy and when that happens, it makes me want to recharge it by resting. Observation 8I feel pain on shoulders because they are constantly moving. The joints are tiring, making them hurt. Observation 9I feel my heart pounding because it needs oxygen-rich blood. Since I need it and the heart has a shorter amount of time to get it, it beats faster. Observation 10My face is hot because blood is rushing to my head. Also, capillaries are trying to move my body heat to my skin. Observation 11I am very hot because I am sweating. To cool down, the body absorbs all the sweat we produce after a bit, causing heat to be released. Observation 12My throat is dry because I am dehydrated. Some of the water in my body is being used to sweat, including my saliva, which results in having little of it in my throat.

First, I would like to start with Charlotte. When you disagree, with her, she will always try to compromise with you. She never demands to have things her way, but will keep a good balance of your ideas and hers. She is always a joy to work with because in serious situations, she will work hard without goofing off too much. She has never let me down. Charlotte always looks on the bright side of everything. Ryan always brings the fun into any situation, mainly group activities. He helps maintain the healthy balance of working hard but having fun. He will always find a way to cheer you up. Whether it is standing in line or doing some research, he is bound to crack a small joke that will make you laugh. Aiden will always work hard when told to. He can whip out a 3 page essay in 4 days of studying. He also always works rapidly and efficiently. You can ask him for help in any subject, especially math, and he will give you any information you need, whether it’s a formula or simply if you are doing something correctly. He also will always listen to you when you share ideas, along with adding his own thoughts to make them better.
Skill Drill:
Has a few, small brown stains The solid colored zipper meeting the colorful pattern full of peace hearts The neon pink thread looks like minuscule dashes touching each other form a line that stretches to the top My crumb-sized eyes stared up at my backpack. I thought the task of getting my homework was an easy one, but when you are suddenly an inch tall, things get hard. Math was starting, and I didn’t want to be late. My thought came back at my backpack, which could have been a pink, purple, green, blue, and orange mountain at this point. “Giuliana, you are not getting a lecture from Mr. Lamich about being late to class, not today!” With this thought echoing in my mind, my puny little feet ran for the mesh pocket on the side of the towering object that contained my homework. When I got to the pocket, my fingers, that were the size of grains of rice, met a hole in the pocket. I tightened my grip around the hole and jabbed a foot in a hole under me. Little by little, my body inched up the climbing wall until I was at the top. The light green, unopened zipper popped out against the colorful pattern of huge circles and lines that formed peace signs with a diameter two times the length of my body laying down. With all the strength I had, my minuscule body climbed its way to the top of the backpack, where a loop of pink strip of thick fabric connected the backpack with a hook on the wall. I hopped on the hook and pushed 5 pounds of backpack with pea-sized hands off the hook. When the backpack started falling, my legs pushed off the hook, making me land on the backpack as it fell. I was on a roller coaster until the backpack hit the floor. Without thinking, my hands flew to the pink zipper and pulled it. Inside, a dark cave in which my homework laid greeted me. My bite-sized feet stepped inside the backpack. I saw my homework and when my hand felt the soft, cool surface of my notebook, my extended hand got bigger. And bigger. I looked down to see my feet farther away than before. In about 10 seconds, I was 4 foot 6 again and ready to go to math class.
