I love rock climbing why? First of all because it gives you the freedom to climg without getting in trouble unless you fool around. I started climbing 3 years ago climbing off and on before taking a break for about a year. My best friend got me back into it at the end of October. Since then that’s where you will find me at least six nights a week. Ahh freedom! The grading system is really complicated for bouldering it starts at v0- and then v0, v0+ v1, v2, v3, v4, v5, v6, v7 and it goes all the way up to v16 at the moment v16 is the hardest grade, the holds are about 3 quarters of an inch off the wall. I am currently bouldering v6 v7. I have done a v8 but it was relly hard and it took a long time. Now time for the rope climbing grade system it starts at 5.5 then 5.6, 5.7, 5.8 and 5.9 then it goes into 5.10a. tThe letters A B C D tell you what grade of 5.10 it is so it goes 10a 10b 10c and then 10d we usually dont say 5. whatever the grade its just to much to say. Then it goes on to 5.11 and then whatever the lettar grade it goes up to 5.16D at the moment. I climb 5.12ABCD and on a good day 5.13A. My goal is that I can be on the national team for canada and go around the world and do the worlds hardest climbs. And be one of the best climbers in the world. In a few years my best friend Chloe and I would like to go around the world to some place to climb I would like to go to Italy, Spain or Austria.

what we did this morning
This morning we learned about copyrighting. I did not get that mich of it but I did learn a bit of thing.
1 thing is that you can usa a song only of you use 30 seconds or less it doesnt count as a copyright
2 you can get permishion from the artist to use their song
3 or f you do something like a mash up and the singers like it then you are doing good for them and it is a good advertisment

Bean sproute
One of the beans from the natural light pot has sprouted.
Inquiry update
There hasent been very much progress on the beans bean number 1 is about 3 4 inches tall number 2 is about 2 inches high and number 3 we put it back in the ground because it was not growing at the state it was at. There is not much progress on the beans with the natrual light no beans a out of the ground yet.
Why Inquiry hub is the best school
I think Inquiry hub is the best high school because. You are accepted there you can doo what you want to do and you can push youself ass hard as you want to unlike any other high school or middle school you are free to work were you want. Another amazing thing is that there are only 40 so,me odd kids at are school. Im glad that there are only that amount of kids of there were even over 100 we would need a bigger school. And probubly the best thing is that we do not haft to do speaches all of the speaking we do for assingments that counts as public speaking so that is a good thing I guesse. Another amazing thing is that we only have like an hour and a hald of real class adn then we are free to work on whatever we want.
Update on the beans
currently the beans with the artificial light are doing very well bean number 1 is 2 and a half inches high number 2 and inch and a half and a new bean has sprouted and is is just out of the ground. Right at the moment I think that the beans with the artificial light will grow faster because there is light all the time and the beans with the natural light will grow a alot slower beacuse of the time of the year when there is no light. Just a little update on the beans.
My inquiry
I havent blogged in a long time but I would like to tell you that I have started a new Inquiry my questing is, I wil compare the growing rates of green beans with artificial light and natural light. So far one of the beans have sprouted with the artificial light. I planted the beans with the artificial light on january 26 and the ones wit natursl light on january 28. This is a little bit of the information on the inquiry,
Green beans inquiry
For this inquiry I will find out the growing rates of green beans with artificial light and natural light.
January 26/ Wednesday
Today we planted the Green beans at about 5:40pm. I planted 6 beans about an inch apart from each other and an inch deep.
January 28/Friday
We planted the beans at about 3:30pm.I planted 4 beans and inch deep and an inch apart.
It is February 6/Thursday and one of the beans with artificial light sprouted the bean is in the middle of the others and in the front . I have realized how fun planting things and gardaning things is.
Also me and my class are doing a poetry project and my poem is called we wear the masks here is my poem.
We wear the mask that grins and lies, It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,– This debt we pay to human guile; With torn and bleeding hearts we smile, And mouth with myriad subtleties.
Why should the world be overwise, In counting all our tears and sighs? Nay, let them only see us, while We wear the mask.
We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries To thee from tortured souls arise. We sing, but oh the clay is vile Beneath our feet, and long the mile; But let the world dream otherwise, We wear the mask!
by Paul Laurence Dunbar
