What does the word "teamwork" means to you?
What the word teamwork means to me is when some people work together and they help you when they are helping you too.
This documentary takes place in New York city public schools in 1994 and was introduced to 5th graders. Today 6,000 kids from over 6o schools are required to take this 10-week course. There are a few schools that compete on a dance competition. They dance and practice before the dance witch is 8 weeks away.
How do you see these students trying to work together?
They support each other and they don't say anything like they don't want to dance with the boys or the girls. They just enjoy practicing with each other without saying things and complaining because they don't want to be with the partner that they were assigned to dance with. They do a lot of teamwork to support everyone without saying complaining.
How important was teamwork for these students?
Teamwork was really important to this students because they had to work together in order to to get where their goal is. They work together really hard to get to the finals and to achieve what they really want.
What do you think is the main message that these students should take away from this experience?
To prove that anyone can be something in the world and that anyone can achieve their goals.
How will you work together with your teammates in Globaloria?
The way that I would work in a team with my fellow students is by working together and helping each other on what we need help with. We would support each other more then we do. This will help because we are having more help and we would work harder because we understand things better by the support that we had by our fellow students.

Math Man:
I liked to play this game because at the same time that you are having fun you are also learning. What this game wants you to learn is how to add, subtract, multiply and divide in your mind without doing work. This is pretty challenging but with the most practice you will get better at it. So this game is trying to make you learn and prove more in your math skills. So I really enjoy this game... When I first played it I was really off because I am so used to always use paper to get the answer. I never knew that it was important for you to solve an equation so now I need to practice more doing it in my mind. So this is what I pretty much learn in Math Man.

Google Science Fair
What do you think about Google boasting an international Science Fair?
What I think about this science fair is that is really amazing for kids to attend it. By the kids all over the world attending this my help them know on how many skills they have in science fairs and also help them achieve on what they need to work more. But I think this science fair is really cool and awesome for kids like us to attend it .
Can you see yourself entering this contest?
I can see myself been up there and achieving my goals and getting what I want. Seeing myself been up there makes me feel to want to enter this competition with kids all over the world and having myself see how many skills I have.
You will be connecting against students from all over the world. How exciting will that be, not to mention the opportunity to share ideas with people from other countries?
the way that I feel when I will be competing with people all over the world is nervous, excited and proud of myself. I will feel proud because I had tryed and have got gone to a very interesting place and I will be proud of how far I got to because I had try my best.
What ideas do you have for this type of project? For instance would you focus on Life science. chemistry, physical science, engineering, architecture, robotics, food sciences, text tiles, materials...etc. The possibilities are endless!
My ideas for this type of project is to work on robotics. I am interesting in robotics because I like building things and creating them myself. What I would do is an awesome robot to help with something. I am not pretty sure what the robot will help on but I am sure that my robot will be totally cool. If I enter this science fair I decided to built a robot because I know that I have some skill on creating things by myself.

My game idea is to make an action game.My game will be based on endangered species. I will like it to focus i endangered species because I know that many animals are becoming extinct and i will like for everyone to do something in order to safe our wonderful animals. I will like for my game to be an action game because I will like for the player to be entertain trough the whole game in order for them not to get bored. I will like for my game to have different instructions in each level because I like playing games that have many levels with different things to do. I will like my game to be like the games I like to play because I have fun playing them and I think they will have playing my game if it is like the games I like to me play.What i am the most excited of starting to do this game is that I will create it the way I really want it to be and I am pretty sure that my game will as fun as other games all around the world that other students create.
