Mystery Class Update!


We are getting close to the end now!
We have had a ton of fun again this week working with the interdisciplinary clues, but,
I won't be posting our guesses now until after the contest deadline of April 30th.
I had an interesting comment this past week regarding my posting our guesses here and well, to make a long story short, I wouldn't want any other school student to use my guesses (should I say "cheat") without doing the work themselves.

I also had another comment from Sarah (dstb) asking about the graphs that are making. There was no e-mail or blog attached to your blogger profile, so I am answering here! I hope you will see this :)
I didn't come up with this particular way of graphing the photoperiod. It is on the Journey North Mystery Class website here:
We really like seeing the decrease or increase of daylight with these graphs.

  1. Thanks for the link, Alex. I'll have to stick it in my notes for next year.

    Good luck with your research. I'll check back when it is over to see how you did. Last year we got 9/10. I assign 5 classes to each boy and last year my oldest didn't do his due diligence on one of his classes and got it wrong. I don't think he'll let that happen again!

  3. Hi Alex,

    I just wanted to let you know that rather than putting my email on a comment, I tried sending you an email yesterday.
