Secretary of Future Redwood Planting
|
Our project was to pick a plot of land in Novato at least the size football field and propose a policy change. We had to specify what we were doing, how we would do it, what we will need, and how the land we be after the policy happens and how future would look like. We had to make slides presentation which is on the right and write a proposal to a representative.
What we decided to do was to plant redwoods on Mt. Burdell. Our size of land was about 900ft by 700ft which is enough room for 390 trees. Redwood trees produce lots of oxygen and absorbs lots of carbon. Not only do the trees improve air quality, but it will also create a habitat for animals to live in. |

This project I feel turned out great. The slides and representative letter look good. We also had a nice spreadsheet. The group I was part of worked together really well. We were able to get a lot of good work done. At first though we might have came up with too many silly ideas, but once we focused and started working we did a lot of good work. We probably should have distributed the work better because we reached a lot of points where only one or two people could work on the project and every one else just sat around. I felt like I did too little work on this project. I also did not contribute in making ideas. In the future I plan to work harder and more on projects. I learned how to predict the future. I learned how to write a letter to a representative.

Link to Work In our predictions for the future we had to predict the abiotic, biotic, climate, weather, cycles, and populations. We also had to create food webs for the area we chose. We learned about biology, ecology, communities and ecosystems so we new how do to this project. We also had to use math in some of our calculation and writing skills when wrote letter to representative, |
