Muraco Mentor Program

This is the blog we made for the Mentor Program with Mr. Ulicny.

We learned about how the Internet works and where our data is stored.

We learned about how data was transmitted in the earliest communication network, the telegraph, by building our own Morse code transmitters.

We also learned about how the Internet came to exist and how information is transmitted through the Internet in packets.

We set up our blog and learned how to contribute posts to it with words and pictures.

We learned how search engines crawl the Web. Google didn't index our Web until we put a link to it from another blog. After that, Google found it and indexed it within a few hours.

We also learned how to include audio files, video files, and embed games and other widgets.

We made a video and uploaded it to YouTube, then embedded the YouTube video on our blog.

Here's how we embedded this game on our blog. We went to http://www.freegaming.de/onlinegames/Adventure-|-Action-Games.html

We clicked on the code that said "Embed".

We copied and pasted it into a new Blog Post under Edit HTML.

Preview to make sure it works.

Save. Voila!

My visit to NYC


I had a family vacation at New York City . We went to see the Statue of Liberty. We took many pictures of the Statue of Liberty. We also took tours of Manhattan and we saw the Empire State Building. Our hotel was in New Jersey so we took a bus ride to see whats going on in NYC. Then when we were in NYC we went to Times Square we saw huge TV screens and neon lights. It was very crowded there. I was amazed how tall the building are. If I look up it feels like I am going to fall down on the floor. We saw the Hudson River from our hotel. We could also see a little bit of NYC. We crossed the Brooklyn Bridge and learned about the 5 burrows that New York is made of. Those are Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island and we visited all of them.
