Name

I thought our group did very well. I thought we did well because we finished early and did a great job. We leaned how to say what you want to be when you grow up and names of a lot of other jobs. Our project was about a man who went and got a job to be a abogado witch is a lawyer. I thought every one liked it and thought it was really cool.

(as posed by Jeremy Stangroom in Einstein’s Riddle)

You are about to attempt the world’s hardest riddle. The usual directions apply- attempt your work on the back of this page or a separate piece of paper, including your name, the date, and an explanation of your strategy.

 According to legend, this riddle was devised by Albert Einstein as a child. It is said that only about 2 percent of the population would be able to work out the correct answer. There are no tricks here. There is only one answer. It just requires the cool application of logic to solve. And a lot of patience. 

There are five houses painted five different colors. A person with a different nationality lives in each house. The five house owners each drink a certain type of beverage, play a certain type of sport, and keep a certain pet. No owners have the same pet, play the same sport, or drink the same beverage. 

Who owns the fish?

This proyecto helped me reinforce the way I say la hora in español. Last year I all ways forgot how to say la hora but now I remember how to say it. “¿Qué hora es?” is how you say “What time is it?” in español. How you ask when an event is like baseball practice you say “¿Qué hora es baseball practice?”. I think my group should next time plane out our imovie instead of improvising the hole thing. I think we didn’t use our time wisely at first like playing volley ball in our house (film and photo room). I would change for next time we don’t goof around and improvise the hole thing.
