Theatmosphere was also calmingand it was great to meet otherartists at Online Oregon Schools.We were well provided for withpizza, donuts, and other snacks.10/10 would do it all again. -Lincoln R.Painting for the Oregon CavesArt Exhibition was one of thebest field trips I’ve attendedsince joining Online OregonSchools. We all drove up toSalem to work in-persontogether, which was far away,but well worth it. Working on this projectwas definitely a challenge,making the canvas looklike cave art that acaveman 20,000 years agopainted. Either way it wasfun though. - Calvin M.Gathering the materials took almost aday of foraging just to find the moss,lichen, sticks, dead ferns, and smallrough flat rocks.

She was crucial in helping several Civil Rights organizations to makea difference for the human race as we know it. Famous of course for herMontgomery bus boycott.Women have been oppressed for a long time, but thanks to women’sperseverance, we were able to take back their freedom. We only left societiescookie cutter idea of a woman fairly recent ago and so many of those ideas stillhold weight in modern times. Many women aren’t as fortunate and continue tofight for their right’s in other countries. Ruth Bader Ginsberg, was the second woman and first Jewish woman toserve on the supreme court. She left her lasting legacy in the governmentduring 1993-2000. She pushed many laws that helped gender equality!If you’d like to check out some Asian women who break boundariesin art some of my recommendations are: Margaret Corbin was the first ever woman to get military pension.She was a tough woman. She dressed as a man along side her husbandduring the Revolutionary War. She tended to the camps, woundedsoldiers, and would even help fire cannons with her husband and tookover when he died.Cui Xiuwen. Her photography evokes an uncomfortable and surreal feeling with the hyperedited look. A disturbing beauty. Her art is delicate, but leaves a lasting impact.----Caryn Koh’s art has a certain kind of gentle sadness that sends tingles down your spine. Thesoft strokes of paint itches your brain in a way you didn’t know could be scratched!----~Extra~ Red Hong Yi, is an incredible abstract realistic artist, who has even done art work forJackie Chan. Gertrude Belle Elion, was a Jewish immigrant.She started from nothing and became a Nobel Prizewinner for the immaculate pharmaceuticaladvancements she made.

Adulting TipsIf you plant too early or too late, productivity will be reduced.It is important that you plant at the right time of year for eachcrop for optimum yield. Temperature is probably the mostimportant climatic factor that affects the success of yourgarden. Here’s a chart of when you should plant and harvestyour vegetables and fruits.A companion plant is a plant that benefits the other plants around them. Forexample, if you plant lettuce next to tomatoes it will create a ground cover,keeping the soil moist for the tomato plant. On the other hand, if you plantpotatoes next to them then the 2 plants will compete for more nutrients andthey are more susceptible to blight.Word, Research, & Layout by Carli KKWhat is Blight?Blight is a plant disease that is typically caused by fungi.

I love growingplants from seed, meetingother gardeners, and I amcurrently learning aboutmacrophotography for bugphotos! BONUS BUG PHOTO USING MACROPHOTOGRAPHY SET UPLast year, I made the mistake of plantingkale, cabbage, collard greens, andcauliflower. All examples of brassica, agroup of plants in the mustard family.White flies are a pest that cause hundredsof millions in damage each year. They areattracted to brassicas. My garden gavethem plenty of food and places to lay eggs.My community discourages pesticides toavoid hurting beneficial insects, butnatural solutions were not working well. Ieventually admitted defeat by prematurelyremoving my leafy greens to preventdamage to the neighboring gardens.TEACHERSTORIESBecause some pestsoverwinter in the soil, Iwill avoid growing leafygreens this year. I will beplanting peas, beans,tomatoes, and lots offlowers. In future seasons,I will remember to plant adiversity of crops to avoidpest problems. WHITE FLIES AND EGGSMR. BUCHANAN’S GARDENWITH MR.
