Well its math time for me and we are learning linear relations and studying over-consumption. The class was split into groups of up to 3 or four and we were all told to pick a topic. Now me being me, I picked coffee because i think that people drink large quantities of coffee everyday without noticing how much of it we are drinking. I have taken one statistic from a website and enlarged it. By "enlarging" the statistic i mean the stat. i took was that an average coffee cup size is 9 ounces and every average adult drinks 3.1 cups every day. I took those statistics and figured out that the average person consumes 172.2 liters of coffee every month, which is a startling amount. Anyways guys, that is what I'm doing in the NLC and I will definitely try to update weekly!

SCHOOL GARDEN!
Hi, all! Update! :
We are making a green house for our school! I'm really excited for this project because we will be building the entire thing from scratch and this is just a great way for the NLC to be part of our school because i constantly feel "dis-Connected" from the school so we will be collaborating with the home economics (foods) classes to help plant the fruits and veggies once we are done building the greenhouse. So the plan for our greenhouse will be in our Tech-Ed class we will put together blueprints for the green house and build our own planter boxes! Long story short- we are making a greenhouse from scratch and plant our own vegetables and fruits :) If anyone has any suggestions or questions please feel free to comment because we need all the help and ideas we can get!

The Northern Learning Center
Hello, this is the program that I'm in and it's a project based learning program that learns with projects instead of papers. The Northern Learning center is an incredible program and I love it because its different but at the same time you are learning the same curriculum as the rest of the school.
We are often looked upon as a group of children who learn differently because we cannot learn like the other students. I find that the program is much easier to learn in than the regular school program because they focus mainly on the things you need to know and not the things that you don't need to know. Anyway, that is the program that I'm in and I hope you follow me on my educating adventure. :)
This is the Northern Learning Center's Blog:
