Friday's Service Learning Reflection

Friday, our group worked hard with Mr. Ackerman to come up with some type of project that has to do with helping the homeless. I came to the meeting with an idea about making meals for the homeless or buying them something to eat. By the end of the meeting, we came to the conclusion that maybe one day out of the week we will bring in bread, peanut butter && jelly to make sandwiches for them && give them a little juice or something. Then we will take it down to a homeless shelter. So far, three things that i liked during our meeting was the fact that we had to pass around a ball && if we didn't have the ball we couldn't speak. Another thing that I liked was how Mr. Ackerman controlled the group. What I mean by that is that e kept us under control but in a fun/nice way. And the last thing I liked about our group was ow much progress we made. I didn't dislike anything because I agreed with everyone's ideas.

Service Learning Project

Me && Ishmael Johnson have decided to start up a group with Mr. Ackerman for service learning. Our group is mainly focused on helping people at homeless shelters. We are not pretty sure which shelter we will be attenting yet. We thought that it would be fair if we went down to a homeless shelter at least one day out of the week and bring the residents meals. These meals could be anything from home cooked meals to McDonalds. We know that this will cost a lot of money so we will probably start a fundraiser. Maybe a bake sale or something. I really look foward to doing this project && i hope it is a great success.

Helium Poem

I am Helium.
My atomic number is that of 2.
I won't combine with other elements, myself, or you.
4.0026 is my mass.
And I am an odorless, colorless, tasteless gas.
-268.93 is boiling point, extremely low.
Aside from hydrogen, I'm the least dense gas known.
I was first identified as an element in 1868.
Janssen discovered me by mistake.
Really studying solar eclipses in India.
Neon, Argon, Xenon, Radon are part of mi familia.
We are part of the noble gases also known as the inert.
I am the 2nd most abundant element of the earth.
& because I can fill up things that fly like balloons and balls.
That makes me the best of element of them all.

I am Miller .

I was a force in the intellectual life of black America for about a half of century. Miller was a mathematician, a sociologist, an essayist, and a newspaper columnist. I was born in South Carolina in 1863, and worked his way through Howard University. After graduating from Howard University, I was admitted to the graduate program in Johns Hopkins University's Department of Mathematics in 1887. I was the first African American admitted in the university. After two years, however, I left the University without a degree.

I was an appointed professor of mathematics at Howard in 1890, and introduced sociology into the curriculum in 1895, serving as professor of sociology from 1895 to 1934. I was the dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, and modernized the classical curriculum, strengthening the natural and social sciences. In 1889, I re-enrolled in a graduate program at Howard University. I then earned a Ph.D. in Mathematics was appointed a professor at Howard in 1890. In 1895, I introduced Sociology to the curriculum there and was a professor of Sociology from 1895 to 1934. As Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, I was credited with creating the classical curriculum at Howard, and strengthening the university's programs in the natural and social sciences.

I was a prolific writer whose articles appeared in the major newspapers and magazines of the day. In the 1920s and 1930s, my weekly column appeared in more than 100 newspapers. On African-American education policy, Miller aligned himself with neither the "radicals", Du Bois and the Niagara Movement or the "conservatives", the followers of Booker T. Washington. I found a middle way, a comprehensive education system that would provide for "symmetrical development" of African-American citizens by offering both vocational and intellectual instruction. I was also a prolific writer and an outspoken advocate for African-American education. Through the 1920s and 1930s, he authored a weekly column that appeared in more than 100 newspapers nationwide.

Overall, I believe I was a helpful contribution to math and will be remembered forever.
