Today, I have learned many things from our gallery walk that my classmates and I had during class. The first student I encountered was Isaiah. His topic was about scientists discovering a super earth. It peeked my interest because it was cool how the scientists discovered a super earth, Hopefully living things grow on it. The second student I had encountered with was Juan. Juan's topic was about a New Zealand Earthquake. Surprisingly, only 2 people died during the earthquake. In my opinion, New Zealand was somewhat lucky because, like I said, only 2 people died. When I stumbled upon my classmate, Josh, his topic was intriguing to learn more about. Josh's topic was about how the Syrian city, Aleppo, has received text threats from the regime, although Aleppo doesn't trust the regime. It made me wonder. "Why is the regime sending text threats to Aleppo specifically?" Of course, I'd have to research about it on my own time.
When I went to Selena's gallery, she informed me about scientists finding 2,000 new planets. I was very eager to learn more because all in all, 2,000 planets is a lot. I asked myself, "How do scientists just find 2,000 more planets out in the infinite galaxy? It was surprising. I was also very very curious because I imagined life being grown and happening in some of those planets and we may or may not even know about it. Before Selena's gallery, I then visited David's. David's topic was about self defense. I learned that having a gun in your house doubles the chance of homicide and triples the chance of suicide. It shocked me, because the fact of having a gun in your house is supposedly for self defense, then someone ends up either committing a homicide and/or committing suicide rather than self defense. It's shocking how a gun can be used for many things when it's specifically owned for one reason.
