News and Media: Weather

The snow from yesterday gave brooklyn 7+ inches. This snow started falling very lightly at first and then started comig down in a higher rate. By sunday mourning you can the nice white layers of snow sitting outside. The drivings of cars have to be aware of black ice which is ice on the road that is a very slippery and thin layer that is not visible.

Mathematical concept: Rationalising the denominator

"Rationalising the denominator" is when you move a root (like a square root or cube root) from the bottom of a fraction to the top.

Multiply top and bottom by the square root of 2, because: √2 × √2 = 2

Note: It is ok to have an irrational number in the top (numerator) of a fraction

Tours

Walking Brooklyn: 30 Tours Exploring Historical Legacies Page 42-49 Boerum Hill & Cobble Hill




On my walk through Boerum Hill and Cobble Hill I saw churches, houses, apartment buildings, and gardens. Some of these things existed for over a hundred years. These things are historical because of its importance to the community and the change it caused the community.

An example of these churches are the Manhattan’s trinity church and a Episcopal church, and a Dutch reformed Church which was the home to Brooklyn’s oldest Jewish congregation. The garden is the Hoyt street garden which has existed since 1975. The apartment buildings was modeled after old tenements which went up in the 1870s. The Brooklyn inn was part of the prohibition but they was a speakeasy which means that they sold illegal alcohol. Today there are churches that has been there for many years and are still being used for religious activities. Houses such as brownstones are still up and being used.

On my walk through this neighborhood and reading the section in the book Walking Brooklyn: 30 Tours Exploring Historical Legacies I learned how neighborhoods are different and how they are alike. I also learned how neighborhoods have stayed the same over the years and how they have changed over the years.

Carroll Gardens & Gowanus



On my walk through Carol Gardens & Gowanus which is my neighborhood I saw a canal, parks, and bars. Some of these things existed for over a hundred years. These things are historical because of its importance to the community and the change it caused the community.

An example of the canal is the Gowanus canal. The Gowanus canal is a part of history because it created a man made water way to transport goods into the city and the borough of Brooklyn in 1889. The issue project room is used for music performances, poetry readings, and other art events in the 20th century. The park that is in this neighborhood is Carroll park that was designed as a city park in 1867 by Richard Butts. Two bars are the Canal Bar and P.J. Hanley bar. The Canal Bar was made in 2005 but may seem of a similar vintage. The P.J Hanley bar was sold in 2005 but owned by the Hanley family since 1958 and under their name since 1874.

On my walk through this neighborhood and reading the section in the book Walking Brooklyn: 30 Tours Exploring Historical Legacies I learned how neighborhoods are different and how they are alike. I also learned how neighborhoods have stayed the same over the years and how they have changed over the years.

School Basketball Practice

On saturday the Junior Varsity basketball team had practice. In practice we ran and we went through our plays to make sure that everybody had the plays down pack. There was still some players who where not total clear of all the plays but most likely knew what they had to do. The freshman team also had pratice but it was after ours. We scrimmaged the freshman team while running all our plays as a way to practice. Some kids played more than others because they played hard and did not mess up too much. The kids who messed up too much was pulled up the game to see and observe twhat they was doing wrong compared to what the person who came in for him is doing
