Social Studies Topic: What is an Entrepreneur? Entrepreneurs are an important part of today’s society. Entrepreneurs identify a need, develop a great idea, exhibit strong passion, seek and respond to feedback, and stay positive and persevere. Have you ever tried to sell a good or service to people outside your family — perhaps to friends or neighbors? If so, you were probably an entrepreneur. Activity: With a little work, a little creativity and an okay from your parents, you, too, can be an entrepreneur. First, you need some ideas of things you could do to earn money. One idea might be helping people take care of their yards. Make a list of at least five of your own ideas of products you could make or services you could provide for.

Solve and Share: Cody made a

drawing of his garden. Each

square in the grid shown has a

side length of 1 foot. Find the

distance around Cody’s garden.

The distance around a two-

dimensional shape is called

perimeter.

Practice Problems: Find the perimeter of each polygon.

3. Draw a figure that has a

perimeter of 12 units.

Math Day 31

Visual Learning Bridge: Gus wants to put up a fence to make a dog park. He made two

different designs. What is the perimeter of each dog park design? Which design should Gus

use if the perimeter of the dog park must be at least 30 feet?

How can you find the perimeter of the dog fences?

One way to find the perimeter is by

counting unit segments.

The perimeter is 34 feet.

34 > 30, so Gus could use this design.

Another way you can find the perimeter is

by adding the lengths of the sides.

3 + 9 + 7 + 3 + 6 = 28

The perimeter is 28 feet.

28 < 30, so Gus could not use this design.


Practice Problems: Find the

length of the missing side for each

polygon so it has the perimeter

given.

1. perimeter = 30 cm

2. perimeter = 25 feet

3. perimeter = 37 cm

A toxic algae bloom, or red tide, has killed thousands of animals off Florida’s Gulf Coast and driven people away from beaches. It is the worst red tide in Florida since 2006.

Red tides occur when algae, a type of aquatic plant, grow out of control. The algae release toxins that harm people and marine life. They also make water appear red or brown. Red tides are common in Florida. But most last only a few months. This red tide began in October. Scientists are not sure why it is so intense.

It has killed 452 sea turtles, nearly 100 manatees, 11 dolphins, and thousands of fish. “I was astounded by the level of carnage that we saw,” Collin O’Mara told the AP after a boat tour of the area. He’s the president and CEO of the National Wildlife Federation.


Dry Days in Australia Used with permission ©Scholastic News 2007

In Australia, most people live within a 30-minute drive of the ocean. For many of them, going to the beach is a part of everyday life. So are severe drought, and laws that dictate how and when water can be used. Lachlan McDonald, 14, and his 16-year-old brother, Mitchell, live with their parents and younger sister in Beaumaris (boh-MAR-iss). Their hometown is an attractive suburb of Melbourne, with spacious ranch houses on tree-lined streets. The brothers love to surf. But restrictions on freshwater have changed their routine--including the long hot showers they used to take afterward. "When you go surfing and it's freezing and you want to have a hot shower, you can't," Lachlan tells JS. "When you can, it's too short to really warm up." How Much Longer? The past decade has been the driest on record for the state of Victoria, which includes Melbourne, one of Australia's largest cities. Research into Melbourne's future water supplies is not encouraging. A recent study commissioned by local water officials identified climate trends that include more hot, dry days and less rain overall, but with more flooding during storms. For Australia--which is a continent as well as a country--drought is nothing new. Its "red center," or desert, has always lacked enough water to support farming or the needs of large communities. But the current drought is more widespread. Some experts believe that climate change is contributing to Australia's dry spell. Others see it as part of the continent's long-term Weather pattern. More than a century ago, a meteorologist named Clement Wragg persuaded his local government in the state of Queensland to build rainmaking guns and fire them at passing clouds. Wragg was convinced that this would create a whirlwind inside the clouds, resulting in rain. On a cloudy day in 1902, the guns were aimed at the sky, and the mayor gave the order to fire. A few drops of rain began to fall, followed by a light shower. But the next time the guns were fired, they blew up. The experiment was abandoned.

At a Glance ABORIGINAL PEOPLES LIVED IN AUSTRALIA FOR MORE THAN 40,000 YEARS BEFORE THE ARRIVAL OF EUROPEANS. Though treated by white settlers as a single group, Aboriginals were of many cultures, and spoke about 200 different languages. They still suffer from discrimination. AUSTRALIA'S FIRST EUROPEAN SETTLERS WERE BRITISH CONVICTS, SENT THERE IN 1798 AS PUNISHMENT. Many were paupers who had committed petty crimes, such as stealing food. Australians were once sensitive about that ancestry, but today most are proud of their heritage. KANGAROOS, A FAMILIAR SYMBOL OF AUSTRALIA, DO NOT GIVE BIRTH IN TIMES OF SEVERE DROUGHT. Instead, an embryo's development halts until the drought ends. After a good rainy season, a kangaroo may give birth to two joeys (baby kangaroos) of different ages!

Laying Down the Law

The current drought is affecting people all over the country. Australians no longer take water for granted. "I used to drink water straight from the tap," Mitchell tells JS. "But now I use a cup. We are always conscious of the amount of water we use." Victoria lawmakers introduced water-saving rules in 2005. Additional water restrictions kick in whenever water reserves fall below specified levels. Current restrictions put strict limits on lawn-watering. People may water their gardens only at certain times on certain days, using only watering cans or hoses with trigger-spray nozzles.

Many Australians keep buckets in the shower to catch the cool water while they wait for it to get warm. Then they tip the cool water out in the yard to water plants and trees. They also use a bucket of water to wash their cars, because doing it with a handheld hose is now illegal. "We used to have a sprinkler on the lawn that we would play in," recalls Lachlan. "But we couldn't do that now." Using Less Most Australians--about 90 percent--live in big cities hugging the coasts. The population continues to grow, so farmers must produce more food. Since many o f them irrigate with river water, waterways are being reduced to muddy trickles. The price of food has skyrocketed. "I am scared about the drought," Mitchell admits. "I think everyone is. When I was much younger, my family and I were down at the beach. I saw a tap that was broken, and we could not turn it off. I went to sleep crying, because I was so scared that we would have no water left. "If the drought keeps up the way it's been going, many people will have to move away or we will have no water," Mitchell adds. "I do think my future will be affected by the drought. I am looking to be an architect, so if I become one, I will have to design houses that are water-saving houses." Australians are encouraged to use water-saving showerheads that limit the flow of water. Some have timers in their bathrooms to remind family members to take shorter showers. Although people may be fined for using sprinklers or washing their cars, the government is not peeking into people's bathrooms to see how long they are in the shower. So why don't they cheat? Lachlan says that he feels a moral responsibility. "You see people on the news, and they don't have water, and they can't grow stuff. I am not taking all the water for myself. I can use a little less and get by." Words to Know down under: nickname for Australia, so-called because it lies so far south of the equator. drought: a prolonged, abnormally dry period when there is not enough rainfall to meet normal or expected needs.


Viral videos of "cute" animals can have negative effects By Mongabay.com, adapted by Newsela staff on 02.07.19 Word Count 418 Level 580L

A viral video of a ring-tailed lemur released in 2016 had a surprising result: hundreds of people tweeted about “wanting to own pet lemurs,” a new study has found. Photo by: Mathias Appel/Flickr

In April 2016, a video of a ring-tailed lemur was posted

on Facebook. Lemurs are related to monkeys. Lemurs only live in Madagascar. This country is an island off the coast of Africa.

The video shows two boys sitting beside a lemur. They are rubbing its back. Whenever they stop, the lemur taps its back. It is asking to be scratched again.

The short video was a huge hit. It went viral. It was viewed around 20 million times. The video was also shared widely on YouTube and Twitter.

People React To Viral Video Of Lemur A group of scientists was curious about the effect of the video. They decided to study how people reacted to it on Twitter. It turned out hundreds of people reacted the same way. They all tweeted about "wanting to own pet lemurs.

Tara Clarke led the new study. She says that not too many people tweet about lemurs. After the video went up, many people started tweeting about them. They said they wanted the animals as pets. After two weeks, things went back to normal. There were fewer tweets about lemurs.

Viral videos of wild animals can be educational. They also can cause problems, though. The videos can make people want to have wild animals as pets. Many species, or types, of wild animals are endangered. This means there are not many left in the wild. Wild animals usually do not make good pets. They are hard to care for properly.

Trapping Wild Lemurs Is Against The Law

The ring-tailed lemur is now an endangered species. There may be fewer than 2,500 left in the wild. If lemurs become popular pets, more hunters will try to catch them. There are laws against catching wild lemurs. Still, some hunters do it anyway. They make money by taking lemurs from the wild.

Lemurs live in rainforests. In Madagascar, rainforests are disappearing quickly. This is the main reason ring-tailed lemurs are endangered. It is not the only reason. Thousands of wild lemurs have been trapped by hunters. They are now kept in restaurants and hotels. Guests take selfies with the lemurs. Taking selfies with lemurs is very popular in Madagascar. People like to post these selfies on Facebook. The 2016 lemur video may have helped create this craze.

Lemurs In Danger

Scientist Kim Reuter worked on the new study. She is a lemur expert. Reuter believes viral videos can be a real problem. They can put wild lemurs in danger, she said
