I love being spontaneous and riding the wave of life where it takes me. I am also very proud to have the best wife, duaghter, and a brand new edition on the way in September.

Tuesday May 17th

Remember today we are bringing in one article of clothing for the less fortunate.  Again you can bring in more than one article if you would like to and I will bring it to salvation army.  Doing this will earn you 5 dollars.  Your other job is to complete a pie chart from any of the questions I have posted on this blog. To complete a pie chart by hand you must do some math.  Here are the steps.  First, you need a percent of each part of the whole.  Each part in this case would be each of the answers.  Second, change the percent into a decimal.  I hope we all know how to do this but I will remind you that all you do is take the percent and move the decimal point two places to the right.  Third, you must now multiple each decimal by 360, which is the whole of a circle.  This will give you the amount of degrees of the circle that each question is.  Last, you have to measure the angle of degrees from the center point of the circle.  The easiest way to do this is with a protractor.   If you use a computer to do the pie chart you will earn 5 dollars for the project.  If you do it by hand then you will earn and extra 5 dollars which some of you need.  You must include your calculations to obtain the extra five dollars, with a color coded key.  Good luck!!!

    Aoife ask your mom about ordering and what I have to do to get the pizza's We will need them for 500 o'clock, I think that's when the dinner break is. There are about 20 people who will be eating. Oh and my wife just said we may order there tonight so if she is working we can put the order in. Whatever I have to do let me now. I know corner grille pizzas are not 8 slices so we need enough to feed 20 hungry people. Thanks!!!

    I should ignore you Alexia for saying I have a question but I will answer them anyways. If I see your calculations and see you put in the effort you MOST LIKELY will get the 5 dollars. Also you can leave your baby in free day care at the end of the day. The day care company heard about all the science fair representatives and offered up on the house care as long as you do your best at the science fair.

    Hey Mr. Phillips, for the hand written chart, to get the extra money, you said we needed to show the calcualtions. Does this mean write out all of the math or just the steps we took such as math=11/64=17%=.17=62 degrees?

    Ok now the next thing you need to do is get the percent of a circle for each subject. Let's start with math which is 17% or .17. Now you need to get 17% of a circle do you understand that you have to do that?

    ReplyDelete
  44. Marisa Double Dream Hands EtreMay 17, 2011 at 10:32 PM

    kind of... i multiplied it by 360 but i did not have a protractor.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Mr. PhillipsMay 17, 2011 at 10:37 PM

    Ok thats good Marisa. So the whole is 360, because we are dealing with a circle, and you want to represent 17% of the whole which you get by multiplying 360 by .17!!! So your doing everything right. Now unfortunately the next step is to take 61.2 which you got when you multiplied 360 by .17. This number means 61.2 degrees which means that 61.2 degrees is 17% of the circle.

  46. Mr. PhillipsMay 17, 2011 at 10:39 PM

    Now heres what to do Marisa, because you don't have a protractor do some estimation. What is a quarter of a circle in degrees?

    My best memory: Definitely the musical because we are like a family and it was the last one but definitely the most fun. Everyone was so happy but sad at the same time because it was the last. Everyone realized how it was our last one so we all just started crying and I remeber everyone was hugging even people who aren't the best of friends and all I was thinking was oh my gosh this was the best night ever because we didn't care what people thought. We were our 4 year old selves for a short time. Crying in front of the whole entire school. I was also thinking ... If this is the musical whats gonna happen at graduation?... uh-oh we are all going to be a wreck so maybe mr.p everyone's favorite memory will change and it will be graduation as all of our favorite memories :)

    ahh so many memories from SPCC!! lunch time with all my friends is always a good memory butthe musical is definetly up there. but there was also that time last year when mr. coonan was trying to help mr. phillips attempt a backwalkover. however, i think my top one is the underground rail road with Mr. p as Conny and Mr. c as old man river and when mr. coonan was comforting amy, mr. phillips said to me, juliana and james, "ook you can come out of character for a little bit until mr. coonan comes back" and juliana said, "ummm mr. phillips why are you wearing a dress?" and he relpied "quiet!! what are you doing? you arent allowed to come out of character!!" good times good times...

    Man I thought the sixth grade musical was the best hahahahaha guess I was wrong. I want to congratulate Aoife, Alexia, Claudia, and Caitlin for representing the school and themselves so well today at the science fair. Also, Peter and Lucas won first place which is an amazing accomplishment. You all really made me proud so thank you!!!

    My favorite memory at SPCC is knowing everything. I know that sounds ridiculous but you dont understand how much of a family it is until you see it from a different perspective. You have to take the good with the bad every day of your life. I love seeing you all grow and you all need to know what a major impact you all have on my life. I dont think you all know that but you do. I learn so much everyday by waking up every morning, even when I dont want to, and going to school. Im so lucky and I hope you realize you are too. It's crazy I went to the same nature's classroom as you guys in 4th grade and still remember it like it was yesterday. HAHAHAHAHA small world. I invented booboo island to which is hilarious. Didnt know it would leave a lasting impression mentally, (I knew it would physically hahaah). Thanks for everything everyone.

    oh memories... Because I have been at this school for many many years now, I have quite a lot of wonderful memories. These memories include when we did the underground railroad in Natures classroom. I still vividly remember Mr. Phillips/Conny in that dress! But my favorite part of that night was when Conny and Old Man River completely improvised and made up what they were saying, confusing and befuddling the poor field group leaders! Oh that was sooo great!
    Another great memory is at the musical this year when we all started bawling! We were such babies! But at that moment when we were all crying I realized how much we are all going to miss each other next year and how close we have become. I will never forget these memories!

Oh my goodness I have never seen anything more funny! and after this Mr. Phillips showed us a video on Mr. C's phone of double dream hands. sooooo funny!!!!!!!! part 2 of my memory is when we put double dream hands up on the smart board and did it during the musical night!! that was the best moment

    Since I have been at S.P.C.C for 10 years, I have a lot of great memories that I would love to share but I guess I'll need to narrow it down to one...or maybe two. So I guess one of my best memories was after this years musical (which was awesome) when everybody met at Peppercorns. We got to hangout and spend time with each other which was a great way to end the night. Another one of my favorite memories was all of Natures Classroom. Everything from Booboo Island to our nature walks were wicked fun. I'm sad to know that we only have a couple more weeks to make our last memories together. But whatever guess we all knew we would need to move on eventually. Well peace out peoples!!!

    Thanks for the science fair thingy! i thoroughly enjoyed representing the school. hahahah. Alright I think a lot of my favorite memories include Mr. Coonan and Mr. Phillips too Michaela! A lot of pretty funny stuff. I definitely loved the musical in 6th grade. There were some intense musical numbers there! And we put it together in, like, a week, so it didn't get boring. The actual nights of the musical this year were great too, even though they were kind of sad! I especially loved when Marisa and I had to sit at the bottom of the stage Thursday night and give out flowers on sticks to 2nd graders. That was completely random and hilarious! hahaha. I loved nature's classroom too.. I didn't think I was going to like it because I used to have a serious issue with not wanting to leave home. I got over it and had a great time! Sadly I wasn't with mr coonan and mr phillips for the underground railroad, so i didn't get to witness that craziness! hahahah. I have sooo many memories of SPCC.. I can't even write them all! Hmm, I remember when my friends and i were OBSESSED with wall tag for the longest time and we played it every single day at recess for like 4 years! good times(:

    I had a great time at the science fair todayy! hahaha, it was just AAMMAAZZINNGG! Um... My favorite SPCC memory.. lets see... there are so many! I gotta agree, I liked natures classroom... I remember I was in a 'field group' and Aoife, ben f., taysha, and matt bullis were in the group, too...Our guide person was new, and we were supposed to go on that like.. two hour hike. But while we were walking through the woods, we got lost... Then when we were trying to find our way back there were a billion huge mud puddles! Of course someone wanted to walk right through them, and Matt B. was that person. He ended up falling like.. face flat and being covered in mud. Taysha had recorded the whole thing on camera! It's one of those memories where you think about something (in general) and then it just replays in the back of your head.. but yeah

    I have a lot of good memories here. The musical definitely ranks up there. At first I didn't know what was going on but Shawn looked like he had gotten hurt. The you turn around and see everyone crying and soon enough you're crying too. It's contagious.
    Sitting through mass with my little buddy constantly trying to fall asleep is always fun. Love little buddies. My best memory is probably standing around with Adriano, Tristan, and possibly a couple other people watching the Little Buddies play musical chairs. Mariano just kept walking in a straight line. Such a cute kid.
    Possibly my best memory isn't really school but kind of is. In fifth grade my dad went to Cosavo for eighteen months, and he came back on Fright Night :) My mom didn't even tell me he was coming home. He literally spent the night running around the Haunted Hallway, and then went to the airport to meet him, costume and all.

    My most prominent SPCC memory is most likely our trip to Nature's Classroom back in 6th grade. I thought Nature's Classroom was the best, especially the food... Anyways, I had very good roommates at NC, Adriano and Evan, and I remember that we used to tell jokes at night after we wnet to bed (of cousre, they weren't really all that good, but whatever). Then, I thought field group's leader, Zach, was the coolest gut ever, especially as he was Swedish (for some reason, I find Swedish guys coll, such as Tejbz on Machinima...). Our firld group was quite amazing, and I remember that on one rainy day, Matt B. had been trudging through all the puddles, but at one oint, he got stuff in the mud of one puddle and fell over into the water, which was quite hillarious at the time. I also enjoyed the Predator vs. Prey giant tag game we participated in; however, I had crashed into a fire hydrant earlier that week while playing Boo Boo Island and busted my knee, making it difficult to run, but it was fun all the same. I remember the whole week begin full of fun stuff (although I was VERY disappointed that I couldn't swim across the lake there) and out giant football game against the other school inhabiting the campus at the same time as us was immensely entertaining. Overall, Nature's Classroom was amazing; it was the first actual woods oriented which I've attended and enjoyed. Oh, I wish I was in 6th grade again. Things were so much simpler...
    Our trip to NC, as I said, was my most PROMINENT memory, meaing it stood out the most. I'm sure there is something else which I should have put as my favorite memory, but as of right now, I can't think of it as I'm tried and would like to sleep (more that six hours...).

    my favorite memory was when me and aoife were paired up for some kind of like game in science and we got almost everything right about ourselves. my other favorite memory was in 6th grade, we were playing a game in math and mr. coonan asked what I on the chemicle table thingy meant. i wanted to say iodine but i never did and it ended up being that answer

    My favorite memory is when I was in 5th grade. Instead of starting off the yr the normal way ms woods decided to teach us jaPanese and give us that cool Japanese candy. Ms woods was always just cool like that. Also when we went to NC. While we were there I always had a lot of fun. And the underground railroad thing was amazing and it really made me appreciate what I have today
    For obvious reasons
    Oh yeah and my last was when I made the bball team in 7th grade
    Bcuz in 5th grade I had failed to make the cut for the 5 th and 6th grade team
    So I was pretty much redeeming myself
    And my fav memory of the season was when in the last game we played we were losing by 12 and we all had our heads down
    Then mr Phillips asked who wants it to the bench
    I raised my hand lookin like an idiot but he put me in
    And I went in and saw all my teammates heads down and it was their last yr
    So I wanted to do something special
    I purposely threw the ball away and then ran back to defend
    I had to pick up 2 ppl in front of me
    So I stood In front of the dude with the ball and took a football tackle right to the chest
    The ref called an offensive foul
    And I screamed my head off
    And that seemed to wake us up
    Bcos after that we played better
    I barely played the rest of the game and we still lost
    But I thought I had done the most I could do for he team
    And I was proud of what we had accomplished
    So I was sad
    But still a little happy after the game
    Wow
    I can complain all I want but I still have some awesome memories here
