All over the world we see numerous plants,but what can they do to benefit us? Actually,plants help mankind in more ways than we realize. Plants help provide food for us directly or indirectly. Plants also help us by cleaning the air we breath. Plants are truly amazing ,filling most the earth, there are many kinds of plants.
Whenever you eat you get nutrients from a plant. When someone consumes meat they get nutrients from the plants that the animal ate. This also happens with carnivorous animals. When someone eats a salad or corn they are eating a plant and get the nutrients from the plant directly. When someone eats bread or cereal they still get the direct nutrients due to the wheat in the bread or cereal.
As well as providing food, plants clean our air. When we breathe we breathe out carbon dioxide; the plants take in carbon dioxide and filter it into fresh oxygen. Plants also clean benzene,formaldehyde and trichloroethylene which are other harmful air pollutants.Many house plants clean all these pollutants from the air we breathe.This is done in the process of photosynthesis.
In short plants really do many things for the world. They provide food in one way or another. Best of all they clean the air we breathe, they even can provide some supplies like paper or types of organic plastic. Plants are really helpful, though few notice what they can do.

Homeschooling adventures
Homeschoolig so far has been great.We get to take our time on our assignments and we get to take field- trips. This year we went to the Buffalo Zoo and saw lots of cool animals like bears or rhinos. The lions they had were really big and kinda scary and so was the crocodile. We saw so many bright colored birds and monkeys. There were creepy bugs and lizards.We even saw an armadillo.
The best part about homeschooling would be that I get to sleep in late. I sleep until about 11:00 while other kids wake up at six and have to go to school. The next best thing would be doing school in my pajamas. I never have to get dressed or stand outside in the snow.With homeschooling the length of my schooling is really up to how long it takes me to do my assignments. We don't need set class times and we dont have three minute breaks between classes.
Even though I'm homeschooled I am still a normal kid. I mean
I like to play games and talk to people. I still like to go out for
dinner. Most people think that because I'm homeschooled I am not
normal and everything about me changes. I'm here to say that nothing has changed I still communicate with the world, I still play computer games and I still talk to my friends from my days in public school.
Homeschooling is awesome. We can get up whenever we want. I don't have to worry about my clothes or my hair. Most over my schooling can be done on the internet or the television and I hope you get to watch the video I posted.
