#34 Figure These Two Out (Hilda the Builder Puzzle)

In Hilda the Builder Puzzle there is twenty two blocks because when you add the blocks from the view from above there is eighteen and then when you align the other blocks there is four that you add because they are the ones that are sticking up and are extra so in total there is twenty two.

#35 Giraffe Puzzle, Squirrel Monkey Puzzle, and Card Puzzle

If the giraffe is 200 cm high plus half its height then it is 400 cm high. The other 200 cm is the other half of his height so in total it is 400 cm

It would take 3 squirrel monkeys to keep 4 howler monkeys upright on the tree because for every 2 howler monkeys the squirrel monkey weighs 1.5 so 2 more howler monkeys would add 1.5 more to the squirrel monkeys which would add up to 3.

I think that the jack of diamonds,jack of queens,and jack of clubs is the solution to the card puzzle. The cards are in order from left to right

#20 Perseverance

If someone offered me 50 dollars now or 100 hundred dollars in one year then I would chose the hundred dollars because then I would get money when I wasn't  expecting it. The long term goals that I have is to go to college and become an ultrasound technician. I would want to go a community college and then I would transfer to a University. After I  got my degree I would go and try to get a job at a hospital and work there. Another thing that I have always wanted to accomplish is going to travel around the world I have wanted to see different places and things and see how other people live. What I would try to do is after I got a steady job I would save up money so that i could end up traveling the world.

#25 More Lying and Buckets

Abe is the one who stole the candy bar he is the only one with three truth statements and two false. What Rex said was true, what Jack said was true, what Abe said was false, what Dan said was false, and what Earl said was true.

4 Gallon-Fill up the five gallon bucket and have the  three gallon empty. Pour three gallons from the five gallons into the three gallon bucket. Now you have two in the five gallon and three in the three gallon. Pour out the three until it is empty then transfer the two gallons in the five gallon bucket to the three gallon bucket. After that you fill up the five gallon bucket and there is one gallon space left in the   three you fill it up then you will have four gallons left in the five gallon bucket.

5 Gallon- Fill up the four gallon bucket and pour it into the seven gallon bucket. Then you will have four gallons in the seven gallon bucket. After that fill up the four gallon bucket again and fill up the remaining three gallons in the seven gallon bucket. Then you will have one gallon in the four gallon bucket. Pour out the seven gallon bucket and transfer the one gallon to the empty seven gallon bucket. Now the seven gallon bucket has one gallon. Lastly fill up the four gallon bucket and in total you will have five.

#31 My Favorite Movie

My favorite movie is Freedom Writers. I really like this movie because it is based on a true story and talks about real life problems. The events in the movie didn't happen a long time ago and it happened in a city not to far away from here. It talks about the different stories of the kids in the classroom and the struggles that they have had to go through.

I think the acting in the movie is really good and the plot is good to. The movie is not something I can really relate to but I like the plot. I think that it is really incredible that despite all the hardships that the students had to go through they still got to graduate. They all put In hard work and dedication.

The experience that they had will last a lifetime. They will always remember all that their teacher did to help them make it through high school and have a better future. If it wasn't for her their lives would be really different. I think this is a very good movie and everyone should watch it.

# 33 How Many Handshakes?

1) If there is 10 people in the room then there will be 45 handshakes because the first person shakes hands with everyone and that gives you 9 handshakes then that person sits down and that person shakes hands with everyone so there would be eight handshakes. So everyone keeps repeating the process they shake hands with everyone still standing and every time they do the number of handshakes goes down one because after each person shakes everyone's hand they sit and they don't have to shake hands anymore.

2) The answer is 55 if there is 11 people in the class because if there is one person added to the group they have to shake hands with everyone once which would lead to ten handshakes and you add the 10 to the 45 that you had when there was 10 people and you get 55.

3)If there is 20 people in the class then there will be 190 handshakes because you just keep repeating the process and adding ten more people to the class gives you 190 different handshakes.

#30 Free Choice

There is many different things that I like to do when ever I have time of or we have vacation. The first thing that I like to do is swim. During the summer I either go swimming or go into the pool. I just have always enjoyed swimming especially in lakes or fresh water because the beach has so much salt in the water that I don't end up enjoying it as much because the water stings my eyes.

Another thing I like to do is go to the movies. I really love watching many different movies and although I dont really do this as often anymore it is one of my favorite things to do because there is just so many movies and they are all different. My favorite kind of movie genre is comedy. I really enjoy laughing and if its in a movie its even better. But overall I pretty much enjoy any kind of movie.

Another thing I like to do is visit Mexico. I have a lot of family in Mexico so whenever I go over there I really enjoy it. Since I don't stay  there for that long me and my family try to make the best out of the time that we have so we go to places like the carnival, beach, movie theater, or go to the different sites that there is in Acapulco. We also really like to go fishing together.  I have gone fishing about four times and I really enjoy it. I usually go with my dad and my two sisters because my dad works on a yacht so he goes out fishing all the time and he is really good at it. Another thing we do is go to Mexico City. When we are there we go to Six Flags and the Ripley's Believe It or Not museum. Over all, these are the things I enjoy doing over the summer.

#23 My Top Five Television Shows


Criminal Minds

I like this t.v. show because there is different cases that they talk about in each episode and I really like to watch how they solve each case. Each case is different and has its own story behind it and it is interesting to learn about each one. Its also very fascinating how each person from the team helps solve each case.

Cold Case 
Cold Case is a lot like Criminal Minds where they try to solve cases. The one big difference is that this t.v. show focuses on cold files which means that when they were trying to solve them they went cold or they didn't have any more evidence. They solve the cases that may be many years old but the always find out the truth.

Supernatural
This t.v. show is about two brothers helping people around the country to solve supernatural problems. This t.v. show is based on supernatural myths,cases,and stories like demons or ghosts. I like this show because I find supernatural things like this interesting.

Whodunnit?
This show is also like a mystery except there is many contestants in a big mansion and the killer is one of them so every week one of them dies and they have to find out how that person got killed and try to figure out who killed them. I like this show because it actually makes you think and try to figure out who the killer is and it has a lot of suspense. 

Master Chef

This show is a cooking competition. Many people from around the country come and try to impress the chefs and then the selected few have to make a dish every week to try and not get eliminated. I like this show because the contestants have to make different dishes and try to safe themselves from being eliminated I like cooking shows and this is one that is very interesting to watch.










#29 My Career

What I want to be when I grow up is be an  ultra sound technician. I feel that an ultrasound technician is a good job that I would really enjoy. It is expected that there will be a 40% increase in X-Ray technology in the next ten years. This profession does not take many years like other professions but it does take hard work and dedication. The things you need to become an Ultra Sound Technician is a high School diploma or GED. I am still in the process in getting my high school diploma but after that I plan to go to a community college and get an Associates Degree. Then I will have to take Certification exams and get hands on experience. I really think that if I set my mind to do it I can accomplish it. This is a career that I would really enjoy doing.

#26 Stranded

If I was to be stranded on an island I would get three things. The first thing I would get is a lifetime supply of canned foods, a pot with a cover on it , and a huge sleeping bag. I think these three things could help me survive.

I choose to get the lifetime supply of canned food because then The food wouldn't go bad. This could be the food I would eat everyday and I would get different sorts of foods so that I  get tired of eating the same thing. I would use fire and the pot to cook the food. These canned foods would be very helpful.

The second thing I would choose would be the pot with lid. With this I could cook the canned food and I could use it to purify the water with fire by boiling the water. This would really help me so that I wouldn't be hungry and I could survive. The pot has a thermometer which shows you how the cooking process is going.

I chose the sleeping bag because this could help me from getting to cold in the night. This would help me stay warm. This is something I think is very necessary.

B) Free Choice

What I want to do most when I grow up is travel the world. I have always loved seeing places that I don't know I want to see how other people live and I want to get to know their culture. I find it really interesting that people  live, eat, and talk way differently so I want to see how it would be if I was in the same surroundings as them. I like exploring new places and finding out the history behind it. Every different city has interesting things to see,and I want to go travel,meet new people, and explore  something that I never knew. I have always wanted to go to Europe especially and to Italy, Paris,and Rome .

I want to begin a new chapter in my life and not count on my parents to do everything and I want to go out in to the world and see how it is like in different places. I want to be able to go anywhere that I want without having to ask permission and just live on m own circumstances. It would be intimidating being in a new place but also very interesting. I would like to meet new people and be in their surroundings and get to live the way other people live. And that is all that I have always wanted and it would be a dream come true.

#22 Brainpower

I think that the prize is in the silver box because that would make the gold and silver boxes false and the lead box true and only one statement can be true.

#21 My Conversation with Rihanna


If I could chose someone to talk with I would pick Rihanna because she seems like she would have a nice personality and she would seem like someone that would be fun to interview I also like her music. She isn't  like many artists because she has her own way of expressing herself. She expresses herself through her music and the way she dresses and she doesn't really care about what people say about her. She has passed through a few rough times but she always finds a way to overcome it. What I would talk  about with her would be what type of music she was going to do next, what artists she would lie to collaborate with, and what she likes to do her interests. 

She is seems like she is very outgoing and likes to do many different things that someone else might not do. I would also ask her if she is a music artist then what type of music does she listen to herself and how does she write her songs. Another thing would be asking her if she had any future plans about something she really wants to do and how it feels like being in front of thousands of people singing and thousands more listening to your music. The last thing I would want to ask her if she ever imagined she would be one of the most known artists in the world.

#18 Being Charitable

Kids Against Hunger is a charity that helps kids fight hunger throughout the world and reduce the number of hungry children. This charity ships meals to over 60 countries. There are over 100 hundred different satellites around the country. You can even help out in your community to help stop hunger. Volunteering two hours of your time to package meals is enough to feed a child for a whole year. You can even host an event in you community to help package food to send to other countries.

The reason I chose the charity kids against hunger was because it is an organization that can help suffering children and give them and their families something to eat. Food is something that everyone needs to survive and is something that everyone deserves to have. This organization can help stop the hunger of many families in many different countries all over the world and give them something that they really need.

No one should have to suffer from hunger and be suffering looking for food. Many children and adults die because of hunger and this might not stop all the hunger in the world but it definitely helps many people. You can even host an event in your community and get together with everyone to help for this good cause. Any type of help can benefit the cause to stop wold hunger.

# 15 Typing Some More

When I was in elementary we were given some keyboards that had different lessons on them and you would have to try and complete them and beat the different levels that it had. It would give you phrases and you would try to type them as fast as you could. The levels got harder the farther that you would go.
