Cooking class-dinner

For the past few weeks my mom has been doing a cooking class with me and my friends.  It's been fun learning how to make different foods.  This has made me more confident with cooking.

Courthouse Assessment

Name:         Caileigh                                Grade:    7                 Date of Law Court Tour:April 17

1.      Was this your first time visiting the Law Courts?

Yes

2.      Which part of the Law Court Tour did you find the most interesting? (Tour of building, tour of actual court rooms, Sheriff’s Talk, Judge’s Talk, Lawyer’s Talk, court case observed, other).      And tell why it was most interesting.
   I enjoyed watching the court cases the most.  It was interesting to see how people defend themselves and the procedures.

3.      Tell about something you learned from the Sheriff’s talk:
    I learned that it can take quite awhile to become a sheriff and you have to undergo a review session every two years to make sure you remember everything.  It was neat to see the tools that the Sheriff uses and how he uses them.

6.      Choose one trial that you observed today and answer the following:

-          Was it a civil or a criminal trial?

-          Was there some terminology used in the courtroom that you were not familiar with?

-          Describe what the case was about.

I enjoyed watching courtroom #6 which was a civil trial.  I understood most of the case.  The case was about a woman who had been recently accused of shoplifting even though it sounded like she didn't do it.  After she was arrested, she felt like the security guards weren't treating her properly and respecting her rights and verbally abusing her.  Her case wasn't well developed because she didn't even have a lawyer and was representing herself.

Now that you have seen our judicial system in operation, how does this make you think and feel towards any of the following: (safety in our community, trustworthiness of judges, people who are accused of a crime, the work of a sheriff, the work of a lawyer,

the role of addiction in many court cases, or other thoughts or comments you have.)

I now feel that judges are very trustworthy because they don't take someone's side just because they feel sorry for them but they listen carefully to the facts and decide.  
I feel that this was a great opportunity or me to see the law in action and I now feel like I understand the justice system and how it works.

The Eye

I did a project on the eye. 

The Eye

The Eye is the second most powerful organ in your body. Your eye works like a camera and has similar parts. Your eyes automatically adjust based on where you move your head. Your eye doesn’t need rest and can function at any time. Your eyes have been the same size since birth and will always be the same size. Your eye is one of the most incredible parts of the body because of its complexity and tedious details. With all of the little details and how your body parts fit together proves how amazing our Creator is.
