Summarize the following:
It's vital to read food labels when you shop. Many foods that seem healthy are actually loaded with extra sugar. Cutting back on baked goods and sweets may not limit your sugar intake as much as you would think. You may be surprised at the amount of added sugar in unexpected products. There may be sugar in things like bread and pasta sauce. Before purchasing an item, always read the label. A healthy adult should not eat more than 30 grams, or 7 teaspoons of sugar, each day. Sugar is not always referred to as sugar on the ingredients list. Sugar is often obscured as companies will list it as something else. Scan the ingredients list and be on the lookout for the following sugar aliases: Words that end in "-ose" are often just sugar. Be on the lookout for words like glucose, sucrose, and maltose. A product may also contain ingredients that contain a high amount of sugar. Avoid buying products that contain honey, maple syrup, molasses, hydrolyzed starch, corn syrup, coconut palm sugar, and agave nectar. If you have a sweet tooth, buy alternatives to sweets at your local grocery store. Be on the lookout for products that can satisfy your cravings without adding a lot of extra sugar to your diet. Milk tends to contain a lot of sugar. If you enjoy milk, try skim milk over regular varieties. This contains less sugar. Watch out for high sugar beverages. Juice tends to contain a lot of added sugar. Look for juice without added sugar or opt for an orange over a glass of orange juice in the morning. Stop buying sugary baked goods at the grocery store. You can actually cut back on the amount of sugar in a baked good recipe without noticing too much. For example, try add about one-half or one-third of the regular amount of sugar. This will lessen the amount of sugar you consume without affecting your baked goods too much.

summary: Read food labels. Recognize the various names of sugar. Look for alternatives to sweets. Make healthier baked goods at home.

Summarize the following:
a rectangle with a height of 6 cm, and a rectangle with a height of 54 cm. Create a ratio comparing the two heights. Scaling up, the ratio is Scale Factor=546{\displaystyle { ext{Scale Factor}}={
rac {54}{6}}}. Scaling down, the ratio is Scale Factor=654{\displaystyle { ext{Scale Factor}}={
rac {6}{54}}}. Simplify the ratio. The ratio 546{\displaystyle {
rac {54}{6}}} simplifies to 91=9{\displaystyle {
rac {9}{1}}=9}. The ratio 654{\displaystyle {
rac {6}{54}}} simplifies to 19{\displaystyle {
rac {1}{9}}}. So the two rectangles have a scale factor of 9{\displaystyle 9} or 19{\displaystyle {
rac {1}{9}}}. An irregular polygon is 14 cm long at its widest point. A similar irregular polygon is 8 inches at its widest point. What is the scale factor? Irregular figures can be similar if all of their sides are in proportion. Thus, you can calculate a scale factor using any dimension you are given. Since you know the width of each polygon, you can set up a ratio comparing them. Scaling up, the ratio is Scale Factor=148{\displaystyle { ext{Scale Factor}}={
rac {14}{8}}}. Scaling down, the ratio is Scale Factor=814{\displaystyle { ext{Scale Factor}}={
rac {8}{14}}}. Simplify the ratio. The ratio 148{\displaystyle {
rac {14}{8}}} simplifies to 74=134=1.75{\displaystyle {
rac {7}{4}}=1{
rac {3}{4}}=1.75}. The ratio 814{\displaystyle {
rac {8}{14}}} simplifies to 47{\displaystyle {
rac {4}{7}}}. So the two irregular polygons have a scale factor of 1.75{\displaystyle 1.75} or 47{\displaystyle {
rac {4}{7}}}. Rectangle ABCD is 8cm x 3cm. Rectangle EFGH is a larger, similar rectangle. Using a scale factor of 2.5, what is the area of Rectangle EFGH? Multiply the height of Rectangle ABCD by the scale factor. This will give you the height of Rectangle EFGH: 32.5=7.5{\displaystyle 3 imes 2.5=7.5}. Multiply the width of Rectangle ABCD by the scale factor. This will give you the width of Rectangle EFGH: 82.5=20{\displaystyle 8 imes 2.5=20}. Multiply the height and width of Rectangle EFGH to find the area: 7.520=150{\displaystyle 7.5 imes 20=150}. So, the area of Rectangle EFGH is 150 square centimeters.

Summarize the following:
For this rocket, you will need one water bottle, one pen, one foam football, duct tape or hot glue, and cardboard. You can really use any type of water or soda bottle. For a larger rocket use a two-liter soda bottle. Remove label (if applicable) and discard. Take the cap off, but save it. You will need it later. At this point, you may want to consider decorations like paint, stickers, colored duct tape and the like. (You can decorate later, but it may be easiest at this stage). Bic Pens work great. Remove all parts and set them aside. Use caution when handling these components of the pen. It is easy for the ink cartridge to explode. Don't try this with the clear plastic pens because they will typically crumble. The white plastic cased pens work the best. If you don't have a saw or find it dangerous, you could use a kitchen knife. Take the cap of your bottle and outline the size of the pen barrel onto the cap. Hold the halved pen barrel and trace it with the pen cartridge. Take a drill the size of the pen barrel and drill into the center of the cap. You could also try to use a knife if you don't have an accessible power drill. Take a piece of cardboard or similar material and cut out 3-6 large fins. You will want these to be fairly large because they will hold and support the rocket before take-off. Look online at rockets for inspiration. You can either use duct tape or use a hot glue gun. Do not use "Crazy Glue" or similar adhesive, as it will chemically dissolve the plastic. Evenly attach the fins so that they are facing down from the water bottle's cap. Treat the fins like feet for the rocket. The rocket's tip, or the bottom of the water bottle, should be facing the sky. If the fins are uneven, the rocket will not shoot straight into the air. It may veer off course. Typically, the goal is to fly high, not sideways. Take the pen barrel and insert it into the hole of the cap. If there are any gaps you should seal it with used gum or another malleable adhesive.
summary: Gather the supplies. Prepare the water bottle. Take apart a disposable pen. Saw the pen's barrel in half. Prepare the cap. Cut out the outline. Create fins out of cardboard. Attach your components. Connect the pen.
