New Years Greetings from the period 2 class
We are working with NASA on a student project related to a new satellite that is measuring precipitation. As part of this project we designed and built rain gauges in class. Here are some pictures and video showing our work.

I really like the machine!! What a fantastic tool! I have never think of the invention. How creative! I think if the measuring cup is bigger, it can collect more rain.

Hello, Jenny.
The snow Mel's and when it does, it goes into our rain gauges as water, so we can measure it!

Hello,
I think it is a very interesting experience for you to make this kind of invention.
But isn't snow too heavy to break your works? I am very curious about that.

In my view, NASA- engeniers will be interested in creating them.

We spent a day studying the geology of an area in Colorado where dinosaurs used to live. We took many pictures and put together a few presentations to help you understand the area. We hope you enjoy them.




We would like to know if you have areas with fossils in your region. 
What kind of fossils can be found there?
Have you ever been to see the fossils?
Does your school take trips for the day to visit natural areas?

Hi Science Class,
It's fun to follow you exploring Dinosaur Ridge.
My students are interested in searching for information in order to answer your questions. But they need some time. Not more than a week I guess)))

Hello!
Sorry, that we haven't answer for a long time.
We have read the project by Eric. It is really cool. We reckon, that your raise to Dinosaur Ridge is fantastic. We would to go on this ridge too.( if we, of course, can)
We also think, that dinosaurs are unusual creatures and that you can explore the place, where they lived, is amazing. And the most great for us, that you can see their footsteps yourself.
When we read the project, we was really excited/ The most beautiful place for us is I-70 ROAD CUT. Maybe, it is very unusual to see such as magnificent scenary/
Eric? we very like you project/ And thank you for this information!
Best wishes?

Thanks,

Hi Ihor this is Reid, Creek, and Hall. We love the post with your mammoth skeleton. How big and old is it?


Peter1342 Dec 9, 2014
Hi Viola! I really liked your brief history of people who inhabited Ukraine. Was was wondering if the people who hunted mammoths were nomadic or lived in one place? In Colorado, all of our early inhabitants followed around the heards of large mammals.

Hi Ihor this is Miller. I thought that your post of that mammoth skeleton was really cool How big is it? What other skeletons do you guys have in the museum? Thank you for sharing the picture with us.

Hi Keilly!
We have liked your information. Also we think the photos which you sent to us are really beautiful and interesting. Information about this rock formations at Red Rocks is really interesting because we don't do this thinks in our country. Especially we liked your post about "We
also had to measure the angles of each of the rock formations from the first row.
For the rock formation on the right I got 52° and for the rock formation on the
left I got 43°". It's cool to do this research, because it's interesting and fun.
Which research are you still doing?
We are waiting your answers.
Best wishes

Our U.S. History class recently researched some of the business methods of famous American Industrialists of the late 1800's. The assignment was to create (and video) a eulogy for that rich American business owner. Here are some of our favorites!

Hi!
Thanks for your presentation! It was so emotionally hard for you, that we should appreciate it. This really shows that you love what you do. I honestly never heard about this person so you discovered something new for me personally. It would be great to see more of your videos later.

Andrew_Gupalo Oct 21, 2014
Hello
Thanks for the presentation
I didn't know about this person but now I see how much Henry Clay is important for USA's history and what did he done for people.
And I understand why his death is like a tragedy and she saying it with these emotions.
Best,

Dmytro_Vikhtiuk Oct 22, 2014
Hi.
Thanks for the video.
He played a major role in the formation of the giant U.S. Steel steel manufacturing concern and financed the construction of the Pennsylvania Railroad, so I understand now, why he was so important for you. This video is realy emotional and make me wonder. I also spent a parallel and want to say that we also have a lot of "heroes", who did a lot for Ukraine. For example Pavlo Suropadskii.
Best whishes

Oleksiy_Goncharuk Oct 22, 2014
Hi guys
When I watch thе video I couldn't understant what this girl want to pass by telling this story in such strange form. If he was so known person and have a big role in the history of the USA you could show his achievement in steel manufacturing or something else and not to cry for 4 minutes
It's my mind, maybe wrong.
All the best

Yura_Shavrov Oct 23, 2014
Hello
Nice video. Do you know that Frick was criticized by the public and historians for his cruelty in business. His is often called 'the most hated man in America' and 'the worst American Director of all time?

Nastasia_Zhulay Oct 23, 2014
Hello!

It was interesting to know about the life of Henry Clay Frick. It was emotionally hard to listen to her.
On the one side he deserves respect, on the other side his actions sometimes conflict with humanity. And not everyone treated him so tenderly as this girl Thanks for the video.

Dima_Vasetsky Oct 23, 2014
Hi Greg and everybody!
Great video. It's very creative. I have never seen such a way to introduce famous people. It's a fascination idea to try different styles of presentation, f.e., like this one. But there is still something strange for me about it. Nevertheless, nicely done!

Nastia_Volk Oct 23, 2014
Hi everybody!
I want to say thank you, Oil, for you're emotional and creative presentation.
I never heard before about Henry Clay Frick, so you introduced me with very bright personality of you're country.
And I read on Wikipedia that once known by his critics as "the most hated man in America". So please, tell me, Oil, what you think about it, is this right or not?

Nastia, Ukraine.


Valeria_Gomeniuk Oct 24, 2014
Hi)
Thanks for your video.Oil, it is really interesting. I first see a presentation of information like yours . I think that it is creative,extraordinary and unusual. Thanks to it I especially will be remember who is Henry Clay Frick and what he did for USA. I don't read about him early. I remember that Henry Clay Frick played a major role in the formation of the giant U.S. Steel manufacturing concern but I was surprised when read that critics called him as "the most hated man in America", one of the "Worst American CEOs" .
Best wishes,

Hi Everybody!
Thank you so much for all your comments on my video! I just wanted to let you know that I wasn't actually emotionally attached to Henry Frick. Our assignment in our history class was to eulogize a famous man in USA's history. The project was for us to give a speech about only the good qualities of our person. We weren't supposed to bring up things like his nickname, "The Most Hated Man" or "America's worst CEO." Instead we had to say things like "He was very motivated by his work" and "He couldn't stand workers who didn't want to work as much as he did." I just wanted to clarify that, yes, Henry Clay Frick really did do a lot of bad things in his career, so the way I reacted to his death was just for show and for the sake of the project. Thanks again for all your amazing comments! I'm glad you enjoyed my video!

Hi guys!
I enjoyed this video because I knew nothing about Henry Frick. Your acting is brilliant and it shows the significance of this person. I was surprised when read that critics called him "the most hated man in America", one of the "Worst American CEOs". Now I know that Henry Frick played a major role in the formation in the development of the country.

Hello everyone!
Wow, I was really impressed when I was watching this video, it is very creative. One has to have a good imagination to make a biography of a businessman interesting and captivating to listen to. To tell you the truth, I hadn't heard about Henry Frick before I watched your video, but I am very grateful to you that now I know who he was and what role he played in the history of the USA.
I would also like to add that such way of delivering information to other people is unusual, but it doesn't mean that there is some kind of impiety (as someone might think). So, good job!
