Hi

Hey Guys, this is our island, do you like it? I made one more town called Aphrodite, it is the Godess of love and Beauty in Greek myths. I love that name so I added it in, is it OK? Give me your opinions of our island, can you tell that it is a T?

Elaine

Hey everyone, I made some changes and added the mountains, rivers, and lakes, like it? I'm not sure whether you like the name of the mountain I made up. Can you guys see the words? Give me some advice OK? I'm so sorry that this thing is so big, I have to make it big so that you guys can see the symbols and words. triangles: mountains, circles: cities/towns, star: capital city, small area of blue: lake, blue lines: rivers

Elaine

Uh, just to tell you, in the climate, landforms page, I said Mount Neverest was a volcano. Do you want to make Neverland that close? Tim

Tim, I dont think u should make Mt. Neverest a volcano. It's supposed to be a mountain, the tallest mountain in our city. Elaine, that's terrific! There was another mountain. I cant read it. what's it called? -Lo

Lois, that is called Mt. Venus, I was reading a book yesterday and it mentioned Venus, it also said that Aphrodite is called Venus, so I thought I might just make another mountain out of that name. Do you like it? If you don't, tell me a name you think will be better.

I think Venus is fine. It's just that... like, like... the may is sooooo empty! a 4 cities, 3 mountains, 2 rivers, and 1 lake. is it ok? i mean, when we make the actual island on a board and make it 3-D, will our project island be almost vacant? -lo

Lois, there are 4 cities, 3 __//**rivers**//__, 2 __//**mountains**//__, and 1 lake!

If any of you guys can think of names for other landforms, I will be happy to use it in my map! I need to make a political map and a physical map, I am already done with my Physical one, and I'm working on my Physical one. I'll post both on here as soon as I can. Elaine

I am so sorry everyone something happened again so please ignore this thing again. Elaine

Hey Guys, Do you like it? The compass rose on the top sort of disappeared, because my computer at home can't find the picture, but tomorrow when I use the lap tops at school, I'm sure it will reappear. I added the scale, the Key, made the Pacific Ocean blue. Elaine

OMG... that is brilliant, Elaine! Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh... It's so pretty. Oh yeah. I need to ask you guys. For my ummm... biography thing, can I take the Tacostan Picture and post it on there? Cause Jack Sparrow lives here now, right? So i want to put Tacostan on there in the video or whatever i'm going to make. OK? If you don't want me to, just tell me. Tell me tomorrow, or I'm going to have to do it. -lo

Lois, you are welcomed to use this picture but I'm am sorry I can't make this a link because as you can see up there, something goes wrong everytime I try. And everyone, I'm going to post the flag and physical map up here as fast as I can. Elaine

Thx. I copied the pic. already. i'll just explain to ms. bland. i absoulutly lv the map! -lo

Hey guys, this is the physical map. Notice that I added the forest in (the square), it is called Forest of Nachos, I just thought of the name because I really don't know what to name it. Is the location OK? I made it beside Markakelly, above timothy river. Look at the elevation key, and see whether you like how I did in the map. purple: 1,500 and above dark green: 1,200~1500 light green: 900~1,200 red: 600~900 darker brown: 300~600 light brown: 0~300 (meters) Just in case you guys can't see the words. Do you like it? Opinions and Advice?!! Elaine

I made a flag for Tacostan. Yellow for the bread thing out side, red for tomatoes and meat, green for lettuce and other vegitable, blue for ocean (sailing through the ocean and found this island), T for Tacostan. I'm planning on putting four seven-corner stars on the four yellow blocks, to represent the four great founders of our island and seven corners to represent the three rivers, one lake, two mountains, and one forest in the island. Do you think this is OK? Do you like my idea? Elaine

I decided to show you guys what it will look like with the stars. Elaine

hey elaine nice flag and im probably gonna draw it if its the final.. but its kinda bright..but good idea of the flag!! check out the timeline history hahah its finished

hey elaine it doesn't matter ill just use ur original flag and draw it never mind the top message ill just draw the origainal flag u put ok? thanks a lot good flag ill just use it in my timeline history

Great flag! I like the idea of it, and I think it is extremely unique because of the T. Most flags don't have letters in it, but still, it's a good thing! I especially like how you made them represent great thing on Tacostan! Tim

Elaine, I hate to bring this up, but I got more research, and we will need more lakes of any size and make the rivers longer. Tim



This one is my CHANGED political map! Is it OK? Elaine

This one is my CHANGED physical map, is it OK? The lake is called lake of Quesadiella. Elaine

PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! o_O Tim

This is what I have right now, the flag description. Like it? I am stil going to make some changes. Elaine

This is the one with some changes. I was just wondering, do you guys think I should change the "Great" flag of Tacostan into the "Noble" flag of Tacostan? Elaine

I think you should because Noble sounds better than Great. Tim

Island Project – Religion Template Name of religion: Buritism Founder or important figure: Burito (Goddess) Two basic facts/statements about this person: 1. One of the four founders of Tacostan. Has the power to foresee some parts of the future 2. When Mt. Neverest (volcano) was about to erupt and destroy Tacostan, she jumped into the volcano and stopped the eruption. She is believed to be alive and lives on the very top of Mt. Neverest with sage Ugly Duckling

Place of worship:

Two statements describing the place of worship:

Major beliefs: 1. Once a person dies, his or her spirit will be absorbed into a taco on Saint Taco Tree (Goddess Burito’s Taco Tree, sort of like heaven) 2. There is a Father God who created the world. Goddess Burito is sent to be the protector of Tacostan Basic Laws: 1. Do not waste any food, because that is the gift from Goddess Burito 2. Do not harm cats or dogs because when Goddess Burito jumped into the volcano, a cat and a dog jumped in with her Holiday or religious celebration/festival: Salvatore Day (“Savior Day” in Italian) Description of holiday/festival: The day Goddess Burito jumped into the volcano and became Goddess.

Niceeeeeee that is good. Love it! I love how she jump into the volcano with a dog and a cat and now live with the sage. Its really good.-Colin
