and longitude. Longitude lines run north and south; Latitude lines run east and west. The lines measure distances in degrees.
BUT WHERE DO YOU START? WHERE IS 0 DEGREES? Well, that depends on whether you're looking for 0 degrees latitude or 0 degrees longitude. They are different things. The equator is 0 degree latitude. This imaginary line, which runs through parts of South America, Africa, and Asia, is officially the halfway point between the North Pole and the South Pole.
29,637,900 SQUARE MILE AREA
The prime meridian is 0 degrees longitude. This imaginary line runs through the United Kingdom, France, Spain, western Africa, and Antarctica. By using the equator and prime meridian, we can divide the world into four hemispheres, north, south, east, and west. For instance, the United States is in the Western Hemisphere (because it is west of the prime meridian) and also in the Northern Hemisphere (because it is north of the equator).

GOVERNMENT BRANCHES and GOVERNING BODIES: There are three branches of government: the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial. The Legislative Branch is Congress, which consists of the Senate and House of Representatives. The Executive Branch is represented by the President, Vice President, the President’s Cabinet, and the heads of independent agencies. The executive branch of Government makes sure that the laws of the United States are obeyed. The Judicial Branch of government is made up of our court system. The Supreme Court is considered the highest court of all. Outside of our basic branches of government, we have local governing bodies. People such as principals, counselors, and teachers can all serve as our mentors. Police officers, firemen, city mayors, and even our court system can also serve as governing bodies through our local cities and towns.

SYNONYMS
Words used which are closely related in meaning. Example: student or pupil, baby or infant, smart and intelligent. Brainstorming is the activity of generating ideas or arguments for a piece of writing. It involves writing down any ideas which come to mind. You would then normally go on to select those ideas that fit the theme of your paper. Freewriting is a simple process that allows you to write nonstop for a set period of time (10-20 minutes). There is no need to make corrections while writing, just continue writing words and/or sentences even if you have to write random words to fill space. Basically, write whatever comes into your mind. Do not judge or correct what you are writing. It may look like a jumbled mess, but it is used to open your mind and be creative.
ACRONYMS
Words or names formed by combining the first letters of words in a phrase. Example: NBA is an acronym of National Basketball Association.
Drafting is when you create an entire paper with the main components of the essay. Revising is the process of changing words or adding ideas that help clarify the theme throughout a paper. Editing your paper consists of checking for correct punctuation. The Final Draft allows you one last read through to check spelling and punctuation. When it comes to submitting your work, Presentation is very important. Whether it is a paper to turn in or an oral presentation, the information needs to be clear with demonstrations.

ROCKY CRUST MOLTEN OUTER CORE
MANTLE
EARTH’S COMPOSITION The earth's composition consists of several layers. There are three main layers: the core, mantle and crust. The core is the center of the earth, the crust is the outer layer and between them is the mantle. INNER CORE IRON/NICKEL
MOLTEN OUTER CORE
Image by: Colin Rose, Dorling Kindersley
The inner core of the earth is very hot. It heats to about 13,000 degrees F and consists of the elements iron/nickel. The outer core is composed of iron and nickel as well but in a liquid state. The next layer is the mantle, then the crust. The crust could be considered land or water. Finally, the earth is completely surrounded by the planet’s atmosphere.

ATMOSPHERE
Science is broken into three Categories: The Physical Sciences that deal with energy, gravity, light and time; The Earth Sciences that deal with oceans, atmosphere, weather, climate, and geological periods (fossils); The Life Sciences that study plants, animal life, heredity, and medicine.
Physics: The science that deals with matter and energy and their interactions in the fields that would include optics, heat, electricity, magnetism, atomic structure, and others.
THE PHYSICAL SCIENCES
Chemistry: The study of the elements, the compounds they form, and the reactions they undergo. Chemists try to discover new and useful compounds. They do their work by using the results of experiments to prove their theories, based on what they are made of and how they work. Chemistry is divided into three main branches; physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry and organic chemistry. Astronomy: Astronomy is the scientific study of the planets, stars, galaxies and the universe.
Geology: The study of the planet earth – the materials it is made of, the processes that act on those materials, the products formed, and the history of the planet and its life forms since its origin.
THE EARTH SCIENCES
Oceanography: The exploration and the study of the oceans. Paleontology: A branch of science that deals with extinct and fossil animals and plants. Meteorology: The science that deals with the phenomena of the atmosphere, climate, especially weather and weather conditions.
Botany: The study of plant life, its structure and functions.
THE LIFE SCIENCES (Biology)
Zoology: The study of animals including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, spiders, and mollusks. Genetics: The study of heredity and how traits are passed on through generations. Medicine: The science of diagnosing, treating, or preventing disease and other damage to the body or mind.
PROPERTIES OF OBJECTS AND MATERIALS The three classifications are solid, liquid, and gas. Solids, liquids and gases are the three states of matter. All matter is made from small particles. These particles are called atoms and molecules.
SOLIDS: Solids are made of a combination of elements and they do not change shape. They keep their shape unless they are broken, they do not flow, and cannot be compressed (keeping the same volume). Example: (Rocks, Glass, etc.) Imagine a chair, and try to imagine what it would be like if it were made from a liquid. Would it keep shape? Could you sit on it? What would happen?
LIQUIDS: Liquids are not a solid, but not yet a gas. They do not keep their shape, but they take the shape of and/or fill the container they are in. Liquids do flow and cannot be compressed (keeping the same volume).
TRIVIA QUESTION: How long will an astronaut's footprints stay on the moon? Millions of years (Because there is no wind to blow them away.)

THE THREE BRANCHES OF SCIENCE
Example: (Water, Blood, etc.) Liquids are used where we need something to flow, for making a drink, or when we need something to take up the shape of a container such as a glass. An example of this would be making jelly. Jelly (solid) is first turned into a liquid (dissolving) so that it can fill up a jar. It is then left to set up or change back to solid, so that it keeps its shape to become jelly.
GASES: Gases are spread out atoms. They do not keep their shape, and they completely fill the container shape or size that they are in. Gases flow, spreading out quickly from where they are to start with (diffusion). Gases can also be compressed and/or squashed into a much smaller volume. Example: The atmosphere around the earth is filled with gases.

EAT BREAKFAST!
SMART EATING! Eating smart means eating healthy! Get everyone involved by encouraging your family members to keep dried fruits and fresh vegetables on hand. Fruits and vegetables such as baby carrots, dried apricots and apples make great snacks. Not only are they great snacks, they’re loaded with vitamins, too! Go nuts everyday! Different kinds of nuts, such as peanuts or almonds, are easy to eat on the run. They are high in fat, but some of the fat is actually good for you! Get stronger! Getting a daily dose of calcium can help you do that. Milk is a great source of calcium. Other sources of calcium are cheese, yogurt and orange juice. Fast food means fast fat! Most fast food is very fattening. If you eat at a fast-food place, it's best not to load up on the greasy stuff. Try to order a salad or frozen yogurt instead of french fries or onion rings. Avoid the supersize, and try to order the smallest burger. This will help you get less fat, while still having a good lunch. STOP THE POP! Drink less soda. Soda is full of sugar and has no nutritional value. It lacks calcium and vitamins, which is what your body needs. If you drink more than a can of soda a day, try drinking flavored water or a sport drink instead.

EXERCISE YOUR BODY — FEEL GREAT! Exercise is a lot of fun and helps keep your mind and body feeling great. Kids who exercise regularly often do better in school, sleep better, are less likely to be overweight, and are stronger than less-active kids. Regular exercise can help improve your mood and relieve stress. Get moving – limit your TV, electronic game and computer time to only one or two hours a day. For a strong and healthy body, you need to exercise at least one hour every day. Try different types of physical activities to work all of your muscles. 1) Stretching: Before and after you start any exercises, take a few minutes to stretch your muscles. This will warm them up and get them ready to start working harder. Ask your teachers or parents to show you some good stretches. 2) Aerobic (means “with air”): By doing these types of exercises, your heart will beat faster and you will breathe harder, which will make your heart and other muscles stronger: basketball, riding a bike, skating, soccer, swimming, dancing, playing tag, walking and running. 3) Strengthening: These exercises will make your arm, leg and stomach muscles stronger: push-ups, pull-ups, stomach crunches (sit-ups), wrestling, climbing and playing on the monkey bars. 26
