La Salle the explorer FD
By: Anderson Kempf
Explorers
“Explorers are stupid” Explores go exploring for different reasons such as religion, wealth, discovery, and to conquer other people. Explores are considered brave because back then they thought the earth was flat and people would fall off the earth. If explores explore to teach religion the are called missionary’s
La Salle
La Salle was a French explorer. La Salle explored the Mississippi river area to Michigan. La Salle had to pay for his expeditions by himself. La Salle explored because he wanted to find easier ways too places. La Salle was a wealthy person and was able to fund his mission.
La Salle’s childhood
La Salle lived from 1643 to 1687. La Salle “his real name was rene-robert cavalier”(World Book, Inc, 2005, p. 79-80) went to a school by Jesuit priests. He left school in 1665 to adventure. A year later La Salle took a boat to Canada which is where France deployed a colony. La Salle got some land by Montreal.
La Salle and Indians
La Salle did most of his trading with Indians. The Indians told him of the great rivers which the Indians thought flowed into the sea. In 1669 La Salle believed maybe one or both of the great rivers flowed through North America to the Pacific Ocean. Ounce La Salle thought about the great rivers he sold his land and set out to explore.
La Salle and North America
La Salle explored the large interior of North America from 1669 to 1673. People think La Salle traveled to as far as Ohio. At the end of La Salle’s long journey he thought the Mississippi river flowed into the Gulf of Mexico.
La Salle in Kingston
La Salle went back to France in 1674. In France king Louis 14’th granted him some land by the city Kingston “the present city Kingston, Ontario” (World Book, Inc, 2005, p. 79-80). La Salle deployed trading post on his new land and became one of the most powerful people in Canada.
La Salle’s settlement
Shortly after claiming his land in Canada he returned to France. La Salle returned to France to get permission from King Louis to explore the Mississippi river. In 1679 after going back to Canada he launched an expedition to claim the great lakes for France. A year later he developed the first European settlement which is now Illinois. It is by the Illinois River by Peoria and the fort was named fort Crevecoeur “fort Crevecoeur (fort Heartbreak)” (World Book, Inc, 2005, p. 79-80). When La Salle built this fort he traveled back to Canada for supplies.
La Salle’s fort
La Salle returned to Illinois in late 1681. His fort got destroyed by some rebel’s part of his occupants. La Salle continued with 20 French men and roughly 30 Indians sailing down the Illinois River inside canoes to the Mississippi river.
La Salle’s expedition
La Salle’s Mississippi expedition began in 1682 February 13th and made it to the Gulf of Mexico on April 9th. By the mouth of the Mississippi river he claimed all the drained land and its tributaries for France. This new claimed land extended from Appalachian Mountains east to the Rocky Mountains on the west. He named the land Louisiana after King Louis.
La Salle’s other fort
La Salle built another fort in 1682 on the Illinois River bluff. The bluff is now inside starved rock state park. La Salle would like to make a colony at the mouth of the Mississippi river. La Salle left for France again in late 1683. La Salle went back to France to get supplies and settlers for a colony.
La Salle’s fail
La Salle set off to the Gulf of Mexico in 1684 with 4 ships and roughly 300 colonists. La Salle never succeeded because La Salle sailed past the Mississippi river. La Salle deployed a colony in 1685 named fort Saint Louis. This new fort was west of the river. This colony was by Matagorda Bay or roughly 80 miles east of Corpus Christi In Texas.
La Salle and Indians
Native Indians threatened La Salle’s new settlement. Most of La Salle’s colonists died horrible death’s from disease. In 1687 La Salle’s colony really needed help.
La Salle got betrayed
In 1687 La Salle and some of his men began walking on land to find the Mississippi River there plan was to follow to Canada. Unfortunately they never found Canada. Some of La Salle’s men turned against him and traitor killed La Salle.
La Salle’s exploration
La Salle was a French explorer that lived in the 1600’s. La Salle explored the Mississippi river, the Gulf of Mexico, Canada, and France. La Salle was the first person to make a European settlement. La Salle had named most of his discoveries in honor of King Louis the 13th
La Salle’s place
La Salle discovered wonderful place known as Louisiana was names in honor of the wonderful king Louis. La Salle setup lots of forts, settlements, and trade posts. “I wonder why La Salle’s own men betrayed him?”.

Wasting water
By: Anderson
Everyday people use 151 gallons of H2o per person. Why would leaving a shower running waste water supply. I don’t think leaving any water consuming device activated waste any water at all. First reason I think water is immune to waste is it will always come back unless it somehow ends up in space. Second the second reason I think water is to waste is that leaving another fluid devouring device will never empty a lake unless it is a big device. Water bodies will always regenerate fluid by the water cycle. That should be enough to convince you that water cannot be transferred from an liquid stage to a weird sort of nothing stage thing.
Salt water tanks
BY: Anderson
Having a salt water tank is the worst thing in the entire universe. It’s so stupid because you have to spend a lot of money buying certain types of food, extra filters and you have to have at least a few strands of seaweed.
One of the worst parts about having a saltwater tank is feeding it. Every time you feed it you have to thaw a whole bunch of food in then you have stuff it in a tube. After that you have to keep the tube away from the creatures but you have to get the food to them. The worst part about feeding them is that you have to make sure their not over fed or all the creatures will die.
Another thing that’s really stupid is you have to make sure the water is healthy. The very first thing about this that’s stupid is that the water has to be salty and if it goes out of range just a little bit everything dies and the tank is a disaster.is the tank has to be a certain temperature. The temperature is cold so you have to buy a chiller which can be over $500.
The last and the worst thing about a dreadful salt water tank is you have to make the seaweed grow. To make seaweed grow you have to turn lights in the tank on and off every day. You also have to keep creatures from consuming it too much or you’ll run out of seaweed. Why does seaweed matter? Because it’s the only thing the snails will eat
And the last thing is the creatures that are too big will try to eat each other. To prevent creatures eating each other you have to keep them separated or they will attack and kill each other.
And that’s why salt water tanks are terrible terrible things.
Tide pooling
by: Anderson
I started going tide pooling when I was five. I have always liked it. Every time I go tide pooling I always find a hermit crab or a horse crab. I’ve always wanted to find a nudibranch. I have only caught two in five years I found them both in one place. I also got a shrimp that was green with a white spot. The two nudibranchs I found was Aeolid nudibranch. I’ve always had to go to homer to tide pool. The first time I went tide pooling everything was new. The first thing I found was a big starfish about the size of my face. When I picked up I had a hard time holding the beast. But I was excited to hold it. When I was done I put the starfish down and looked for something else. I and my dad setup a cold water tank so my dad could keep clams alive so he could eat them later. Last year my class went tide pooling at Kasitna bay. I and my dad went tide pooling I found two Nudibranchs and he found some shrimp that were about 4” long. And I also found a clam. When where done tide pooling we get in the car and take a three hour drive home.
OH NOOOOOOO
BY: ANDERSON
On a nice sunny day Anderson and a super smart talking green bear where going to the outdoor education center. Other people call it the O.E.C. And we got lost on our way there. When we finally found it was raining. At the OEC there was a tree burning. The tree was also split in half. Anderson and the bear walked from cabin to cabin looking for some water. For some reason there weren’t many trees. Anderson and the bear thought they just filled the fire wood shed half way. Suddenly a lightning strike hit one of the cabins. “This place is falling apart.” The bear growled. I and the bear walked over to the cabin and opened the door to a gigantic hole in the roof of the cabin. Me and the bear walked in the cabin and burnt our feet on the flaming wood.
The huge crater was just welcoming we to the O.E.C. one last time me and the bear walked out of the cabin and fell into deep hole that’s on fire. By the time we got out me and the bear’s feet where covered in burned skin and pain. Once we could walk we tried to escape the O.E.C. the hill had a huge crack right through the middle with lava glow coming out from inside. Me and the bear tried to jump then the crack expanded making it so big it was impassible. It also surrounded the O.E.C. so now where. Trapped in a place with killer lightning strikes and everything is dying because the land is covered radiation. We survive because we got hit by the lightning strike rendering us mutant. Therefore we are immune to radiation. I and the bear didn’t want to leave the O.E.C to be destroyed.
I and the bear had no idea how to fix this place when we saw a small volcano that was filled with radiated goo oozing out of it. Me and the bear where staring at it when I shot a giant beam in to the clouds. When the beam was gone the clouds destroys another cabin with another with another mighty lightning strike. I and the bear had get out of the O.E.C now to contact someone with a pump or a big digging machine. Me and the bear found a half tree and pushed it on top of the crack surrounding the O.E.C. me and the bear carefully walked across the tree. Once we made it to the other side we ran down the road to the town of Soldotna I quickly ran to my house and took my dad’s pump then ran back to the O.E.C and lowered the tube into the small volcano and pumped all the goo out and everything returned to normal.
The end
me and my partners goal was to keep organisms alive in a environment for 100 years. our simulation contained two plants two herbivores and one omnivore.
first me and my partner chose organisms to place in the environment, and we chose which herbivores would eat the plants.
next me and my partner observed that one of the herbivores where extinct. me and my partner ignored it and went on.
then me and my partner observed that everything was survived 100 years.
finally me and my partner used all the data to make graphs.
