post test 5

Today i finished post test 5 and went back on my scores

What i did today was did some practice test and some other things too.

   What i did today was did some tutorial and did some practice test on mapping and took some notes for the real Mastery Test that i have to take after thise. The other thing i learned was that the plates that make up the lithospheere float on top of the denser asthenosphere and so on. The other thing i had to do was unit 1 discussion lookking at earths features and so on....

Post Test 5

Today i worked on the end of post test 4 and started post test 5, i hope to finish them tomorrow.

What i did today was took a mastery test on mapping.

   What i did today was took a mastery test on mapping and took notes that i need when i retake it again. Some of it was kind of easy and the other half was kind of hard so it was between both and so on. But thise time i got a higher grade then the last time i took it.

What i did today was Practice and did an activity.

    What i did today was did a practice test and an activity on plants and measureing things. In this task, you will compare plant growth for two weeks. Fill a cup with soil found near your home, another cup with sand (perhaps from a sandbox in a nearby park), and a third cup with rinsed gravel. Place a bean or a pea seed about ¼-inch deep in each cup. Every three days, give each plant one ounce of water. Measure and record the plants’ growth each day. Also take notes on the plants’ appearance. After two weeks, prepare a report on the growth and appearance of all three plants and draw conclusions on why the growth occurred the way it did  The three soil components are sand, clay, and silt. While most soils contain some amount of each component, there are locations where the soil contains a very high percentage of a single component. Identify a specific place or region where one could find this soil type; find a photo of the soil type in this location, copy it, and paste it into the table; and list a plant type that would do well, given normal weather conditions for that location, in that type of soil and so on.

Finished

Today i did two tests and finished the class.

What i learned today was about the Earth Scientist.

     What i did today was an activity on earth scientist, soil is more than just dirt. The soil in the local park could well be different from what is found on a nearby farm. Likewise, the soil of the Palouse where the wheat grows so well is certainly not the same as the soil that Iowa corn grows in. All soils can be classified using standard techniques. When you know the soil type, you can make educated guesses what might grow well in it. In some cases, knowing the soil’s type and components helps you determine the general vicinity the soil likely came from. In this activity, you will get down and dirty with soil. Determine the time in different time zones.

What i did today was Science Earth's Composition.

   What i did today was match layers of the Earth with analogous structures in other objects. Distinguish between the core, mantle and crust based on their composition or characteristics of density, temperature, or state of matter.

What i did today was an Activity on Plants.

    What i did today was In this task,i  will compare plant growth for two weeks. Fill a cup with soil found near your home, another cup with sand (perhaps from a sandbox in a nearby park), and a third cup with rinsed gravel. Place a bean or a pea seed about ¼-inch deep in each cup. Every three days, give each plant one ounce of water. Measure and record the plants’ growth each day. Also take notes on the plants’ appearance. After two weeks, prepare a report on the growth and appearance of all three plants and draw conclusions on why the growth occurred the way it did and so on it was kind og hard and easy this time for me.

Political maps show the location of cities, townships, countries, states, countries, and regions of the world.  Road maps show the location of roads in an area. Weather maps show current or predicted weather patterns over an area.  Other maps can show numbers of people, types of rocks and soils, weather, and other information. Mapmaking tools many techniques and tools for making maps have changed in the last hundred years or so. Humans can direct the satellites to gather data from space about aresas of interest on the Earth. the data collected can be changed into maps to show details about the Earth that humans may not be able to see from the ground.

What i learned today was Longitude Meridians.

       What i learned was Longitude Meridians. Lines of longitude run toward the North and South poles and there not parallel. They start at the prime meridian in Greenwich, England. Points to the prime meridian have east longitude that run from 0 to 180 E, and points west to the prime meridian have west longitudes that run from 0 to 180 W. The line on the opposite side of the Earth from the prime meridian is 180. Both Greenland and the country of Brazil in South America are crossed by the 40 W meridian. Longitude is long and runs top to bottom. The ather thing is that minutes and seconds can cover smaller ares. Different places have different time. Like here in Iowa with Califonia or other places to. So not every place have the same time.

i can describe relationships among angles by using properties of complimentary, supplimentary, and vertical angles

There are two types of weathering that affect rocks and the rock cycle. There is mechanical weathering and chemical weathering. Mechanical weathering is when the rocks chemistry structure is not changed but only its apperance has. Chemical weathering is produced when water, animal, or any other living thing affects a rock to change it chemical structure which can or cannot change its appearance.

Semester Test

today i took the semester test for English 10A

post test 2

post test one for physical science a

What i learned today was Wave speed helps determine distance.

     What i   learned today was  that the farther a station is from the spicenter, the longer it takes for waves to reach the station and the farther apart P and S waves become. Large enough earthquakes carry energy from one side of the earth to the other.  There are more than 4000 seismograph stations. Only certain waves reach certain places. S waves only move through solids. All waves change speed in different materials. Earthquakes that occur frequently are generally weaker. Damage depends on Distance from epicenter, geology, and construction, and population. Areas near an earthquake spicenter are generally shaken more, resulting in more damage.

Punctuation

today i learned how to use the right terms of puntuation.

What i learned today was abotut Richter Magnitude.

What i learned today was about Richter Magnitude. The magnitude of the 1960 earthquake in Chile had one magnitude of 9.5. However, it had different intensities depending on the distance from the earthquake's epicenter.

Today i learned sbout Stress, Strain, and Storing Energy

What i learned today was about Stress, Strain, and Storing Energy. Objects thatbreak release energy and return to thier original shapes. Rocks store energy in elasttic deformation, then break, releasing energy and rebounding to their original shapes. Breaking rocks produce waves of energy that move out in all directions. These energy waves cause the ground to move in an earthquake.

what i learned today was How And Why Volcanoes Form.

What i learned today was HOW AND WHY VOLCANOES FORM. The way that a volcanoe is made is any place where magma from the earths interior reaches the surface. All volcanoes have at least one vent, and some have many. Underneath a volcano, the magma collects in what is known as a magma chamber. Once magma is on the surface , it is called lava. I even read that lava is extremely hot, and usually red and orange, but when it cools, it hardens and darkens. magma can cool and harden either in the surface or as lava on the surface. The hardened magma forms igneous rocks thats a nuther thing about the volcanoes.

I can distinguish between examples of homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures given

Homogeneous is an example of a bell. And is also an example of a breaking in the steel. Hetergeneous is a example of treating a bacterial infection you may have.

I can identify new eras in world history.

The European scramble to Africa happened in the mid to late 19th century. Eithiopia and Liberia were still independent at this time. During 1850-1864 Europe pressured for more and more things from Africa and for more rights for themselves.

I will distinguish between examples of solids, liquids, gases, and plasmas based on descriptions of

A liquid is something that if it gets frozen than it turns into a solid. A solid is something that if it is frozen and it melts than its a liquid. A gas is something that a bunch of chemicals are together or become together an is called a gas.

I can describe the different roles in citizens

In 1918 women were allowed to vote in France. All men who were working and citizens, were allowed to vote years before that. When women were allowed to vote, then they were allowed to do other things that didn't keep them home. Men however always had more advantages.

i can distinguish between physical and chemical, properties and changes as well as

Physical reaction is like stepping on a pop can, Chemical is like making someething to eat on the stove top.

In 1914 women were allowed to vote for the first time in Norway. Their rights as women were treated the same as men and really encouraged for middle class women. They still had their responsibilities such as staying home with the kids and doing their housework however their social freedom increased.

Mean, Median, and Mode (Courseware/Exempt)

Today im learning how to add all the numbers to make the mean. after you add all tha numbers you have to divide them too. and also A mean is also called An average. Also im learnin how to divide and finding tha middle number. Tahat is whats called a meidian. and a mode is when youhave to put tha list in order.

I can understand the digits is a basic symbol.

I can understand that a digit is a basic symbol used in a numeration system. the ten digits used in our decimals, or base ten numeration system are 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,and 9. The hundreds place for a whole number written in standered form,the hundreds place is the third place when counting from right to left in the numbers. The value of the number in hundreds place is equal to that number times 100. All thise things are easy for me but when we do a test i get nervest and for get some of it jk.

Unit 3 Post Test

i took the post test on unit 3 today and scored a 65%.
i also finished Punctuating Quotations and the Directing A Peer Review. i had to generate questions about my own writing

The seven weeks war was a big thing. As a result of the seven weeks war, the German Confederation was dissolved. Having the German Confederation gone was a very good thing for most people.

What i learned today was abot wind and garavity.

Today i learned about the wind on the dirt . When the dirt moves its called erosin because its moving to a nuther place were the wind takes it . know gravity it has to do with the earth and humen. Gravity is something that pulles down on earth to not let things flow around makes it stay down in one spot.

I can predict the effects of volcanic activity on the enviornment.

Volcanoes that erupt near animal enviornments and homes, can cause great damage and can even cause fatalities. If you were to live near a volcano, the harm that the volcano can cause is determined by the type of explosion the volcano produces. If it was an explosive eruption lava and other pyroclastic material can be fatal. If it was a non explosive eruption, ash is more than likely to appear, that can cause ash and dust to build up in our atmosphere and could block sunlight for days.

I can use electronic communities

I finished a test today over electronic communities and learned how to avoid flaming and spaming and receving it also. One way is to stay away from people you dont get along with and one is if the send it to you do not reply. People online might not be who they say they are, and there are diffrent sites to communicate with people like games, blog, chat, and more.

i learned how to used chat sites and bloging places i also learned how to send instant messageing and more stuff.i also learned how to avoid being rude and avoid rude people online, i also found out if someone dose something rude or eleagle to stay away and dont reply because you might want a job some day and u might not get it if they see this online.

I can distinguish different rocks that are produced by lava flows.

When a volcano erupts it lets out a pyroclastic flow which can be ash, dust or rocks. The different types of rocks are distinguished by its features. Volcano blocks are rocks that were present at the time of the eruption. Volcano bombs are rocks that are made of magma and produced by magma hardening.

I can identify and apply means of resolving conflicts that allow the release of

By using certain techniques and by remaining calm it is easy to work out a conflict that you may have. Conflicts can be resolved by sitting down and talking with the person, listening to what they have to say, and working together to find a solution to the problem. Conflicts can be easily resovled if both sides are willing to compromise. This coinsides well with the independence of the United States and its beginning. America and Great Britain were finally able to reach a compromise, although this was due largely in part to the United States claiming their independence and more or less forcing Britain to follow suit.

I can draw these questions from the title and paragraph headings. Also I should make a guess of what it is going to be about just by looking at the title and these headings.

Today i learned

I learned

I can distinguish between examples of explosive and non-explosive reactions from volcanoes.

Volcanoes can have certain types of eruptions. There are explosive, non explosive, and explosive and non explosive. All these types of explosions are dangerous, some more than others. Explosive happens when water vapor gets trapped in the magma chamber and creates high silica. Non explosive happens when there is little to no water vapor in the magam chamber. These different types of explosions let out certain types of lava flow.

I will determine which of Newton’s three laws is illustrated by specific examples.

For example Newton's  laws are. When there is a parked car that stays in the same place until someone moves it. That would be his first law. His second law would be as you increase the force applied to a object. Newton's third law would be when a girl hits a volleyball an it goes over to the other person or over the net!

I learned about Plate techonics?

What i learned today was about the plate tectonics. What i learned was that the plates make up the lithospere float on top of the denser athenospere. And that cool magma sinks and hot magma rises.

I can identify changes that resulted from important turning points in world history, such

During the industrial revolution, the economy changed dramatically. It changed everyone being so dependent on the world trade, however it didn't completely remove it. Factory workers had many hours and got paid minimal wages. Women and children were also allowed to be factory workers during that time. Women no longer had to stay at home with the kids they could also contribute.

I can demonstrate proficiency in using language terminology and in applying language concepts: parallelism.

Today I learned how to notice if a sentence has a faulty parallel structure. You can tell this by seeing if when listing things they either all end in -ing or they all don't. If some of the words do and then some don't, that's faulty parallel structure. Also learned that if you are talking about two things in a sentence ex: I talked to the coach and teacher, you should put a "the" in front of teacher so you have correct parallel structure.

I can summarize and list priorities for computer maintenance.

I learned how to back up data so that way if you computer hard drive is messing up you can still have your data on your computer. I also learned what you should do if your computer is messing up, most problems can be fixed by yourself but if it is a major problem such as your computer not turning on you should call for perfessonal help. If you are to use a website make shure it is a trusted web site because it can mess up your computer even more by makeing it slower or giving it bugs. Some ways to keep you computer safe is to have automatic downloads.

I can demonstrate proficiency in identifying a run-on sentence and correcting it.

I learned how to recognize a run-on sentence in a paper. Also learned how to go about correcting different kinds of incorrect sentences. Run-on sentences can be made by forgetting one of two things: a period, exclamation point, or question mark. Or forgetting a comma or semicolon.

I can distinguish processes involved in seafloor spreading.

Seafloor spreading happens underwater. It happens when a divergent boundary realeases magma into the sea and makes ridges along the divergent opening. It then expands the seafloor making the older seafloor farther away from the divergent opening and the newer seafloor closer the opening. The older seafloor is then melted back to magma and released through the divergent opening once again. It happens when a seafloor plate and a continential plate collide and create subduction.

Computer Mainenace

I can get rid off unwanted files, I can also move them to better storing places, if you just delet them they will just go to a storing place but today i learned that this can make your computer gop slow, so you have to use a thing called a clean up tool this gets rid off unwanted files for good.

I can predict ways heat can be transferred between two objects.

Boiling water transfers energy to an ice cube by heat. Particles in a object are constantly flowing through the object by thermal energy. Heated air mollecules in a hot air balloon is conducted but convection.

I can distinguish between convergent and divergent movements.

There are two major movements that move tectonic plates that can cause mountains to form, oceans to spread or volcanoes erupt. Convergent and divergent movements create differrent boundries. Convergent boundries can cause a seafloor plate and a continential plate to collide while the seafloor plate moves under the continential plate and creates subduction where the seafloor plate melts and creates magma. Divergent boundries make oceanfloors spread and melt at the same time. These different types of movements can cause vaults, valleys, mountains, and seafloor spreading.

Something i learned today was how to use context clues to find out what a word means

I can explain the causes of industrialization.

The industrialization in England started in 1750 and they wanted to build factories, machines and steam engines. England had to have the large amount of coal and other resources they already had to build these things. Industrialization caused many farmers and other people to join the union and work for the many factories that were built. All the surrounding farmers had moved to the cities and left their farms to go work in these factories.

I can save and store files properly in the correct places. I can also move files to other storing areas I no how to do this two diffrent ways. I also learned how to find your files if you cant remember ware you put them.

I can find and interpret features on road and political maps.

In Earth and Space science I learned about different parts on a map that can help you better read them. There are things like labels, scales, key/legend, and compasses. Each of these factors define a map and identify things in it. Labels tell you what type of map its is and also where and how old the map is. Scales help you judge distances by providing some type of measurement to show the distance of land or sea. The key/legend shows what some drawings on a map mean. Such as a blue line is most likely a river. Compasses always point to true north. All these factors help you read a map.

I can  describe the structure and functions of roots. roots pull downword into the earth by gravity and has small hair like substences that grabe and atract water, sweet patatos and carrots are actualy roots them selves and all the nutriens in then is the minerals and water that is absorbs the keep the plant alive that you eat.

I will articulate what I learn from source material and how I might use it on an essay.

today i learned how to revise my paper. i also learned how to see word that need more explaining.

I will draw inferences such as conclusions, generalizations, and predictions and support them with text, evidence, and experience.

Today I learned better ways to make inferences about texts. I learned there are steps/certain questions you can ask yourself that makes understanding the text a lot easier. These questions are: what things can you put together to answer your questions? what do you learn when you put these things together? and does your inference continue to make sense as you continue to read?

I can explore the functions and uses of diffrent types of application software.

I learned how to use diffrent types of appolication software, some of the types are spreadsheet, spreadsheet and presentation, word procesor and presentation, and word procesor and presentation. These things alow you to make diffrent things on your computer.

I can draw inferences such as conclusions, generalizations, and predictions and support them with text, evidence, and experience.

Today I learned how to take something I read but didn't fully understand and make some inferences from it. As I was reading I would remember questions that I had, and once I got to the end I would find ways the article answered them for me. Then I put them together along with some background knowledge that I may have had. Then I asked myself if my inference makes sense now that I have finished the passage.

operating systems

I can find a location on a map when given coordinates.

Today, I learned about coordinates on a map/globe. Coordinates can locate any given town, city, state etc.
The coordinates are made up of two factors. First,the latitude coordinates. This first coordinate can range from 0 to 90 degrees North or South. The second is the Longitude coordinate. This coordinate can range from 0 to 180 degrees East to West. Where ever these two lines intersect on a map/globe it gives you coordinates that indicate were the location that is needed is at. There are no two coordinates that are exactly the same otherwise it means that they're taking up the same landmass at the same time which is impossible.

I can identify the contributions of significant thinkers.

The englightenment philosophers believed that the colonists should have their rights protected and their opinions should be voiced and accounted for. They thought that having a government that ruled everything, was not the way to do things. Democratic government was what they wanted for everyone.

I can demonstrate knowledge of the changing character of American political life in “the age

The "new democracy" in the United States was due to Andrew Jackson's presidency. By his support of the common man, he made it so one had to appeal to the citizens, the average citizens, and not the learned elites. Jackson's support of the common man changed the way that presidents went about gaining votes, they now had to appeal to the popular vote and appeal to the average citizens wants.

I will ready selections by American authors and secondary sources by literary critics (Civil War 1914)

Today I learned about the struggles Harriet went through her first years of being a slave. But I also learned that before her parents both died, slavery to her was different then for others. She was not always treated harshly, for people admired her family for being so respectful and hardworking so they told her parents before their death she would be well taken care of. Altogether I'm learning what it was like to be a slave from not only a child's perspective but a female child, which is far different from that of a male child for they had different roles and rules since they were different genders.

I can demonstrate knowledge of the changing character of American political life in “the age

The United States was first ruled by the upper class citizens. Learned elites were the ones that held the control and power of the government, but with the election of Andrew Jackson, that began to change. The "common man" now had more of a voice in Congress and was better represented as the backbone of the nation.

I can explain the significance of the date 1789.

In the year 1789 the French Revolution had begun. It was started based on many different reasons however unfair taxation was why the colonists followed through with it. The French Revolution had came after the American Revolution however they both were based on the same reasons.

Multiplying Common Fractions (Courseware/Exempt)

today i learned on how to use fractions in problems while being multiplied. i also worked on square roots. and imperfect squares and perfect squares. the multilplying fractions is not going so well. im getting some of them wrong..

I can identify response to the environment as a requirement for life.

In order to survive or live in this world, you're going to have to have three things. Food, water and shelter. Shelter is what protects you from the weather but the environment around you can also be considered as shelter and we all need it to survive. For example, if a rabbit that had long white fur and lived in a snowy environment, it would be able to adapt quickly because the fur is protecting it from the cold and it's coat is blending into the snow so it won't be as easy to catch for preditors. If it lived in another environment, like a desert, it wouldn't be able to survive because preditors would be able to spot it quickly.

I can pose and answer questions about geographic distrubutions and patterns in world history.

The French revolution began everything. Following that the American revolution came into place and then the reign of terror shortly followed. The British started all the wars with their unfair taxation and no real reason to the people or any explanation as to why.

I can demonstrate knowledge of westward expansion and reform in America from 1801 to

The main point that aided in westward expansion was the aquisition of the Louisiana territory. It was purchased by Thomas Jefferson in 1803. The aquisition of the territory was received with mixed feelings from the young nation. Jefferson was also concerned with buying the new territory, for the constitution did not state that new territory could be aquired through purchase. The territory was bought for a bargain price of $15 million.

I can analyze cause and effect: one cause/one effect, one effect/multiple causes, and one cause/multiple effects

Today I was able to analyze cause and effect. And learn that there can be different times where there can be: one cause/one effect, one effect/multiple causes, or one cause/multiple effects. By understanding this I can now better understand how to point out each scenerio of cause and effect while reading.

Gemstones

Today i learned about Gemstones.Diamonds can be used in drill bits and saw blades because they are very hard that nothing happens to them when they are being used on things.

I will be able to differentiate between required map elements.

There are two maps that are commonly used by an average traveler. Those maps are called a topographical map and a road/country map. Each map can benefit you in different ways. Topographical maps are used to distinguish certain features of the land. They can show were mountains, plateaus, rivers,canyons etc., are located. Road/country maps are used to identify were roads and interstates etc. are at, but can also show you what state your in or are going to. Maps are really useful when traveling, hiking and or even hunting.

Today i learned that tha base number stays the same if the exponent are different. it just means that you cant simplify it.

I will be able to discriminate between examples of latitude and

Tody in Earth and Space Science i will be able to describe the difference between latitudes and longitude lines. Latitude lines describe what side, North or South, of the world/globe your on. Latitude lines are also parrallel and will never intersect, they go horizontally which is opposite of longitude lines. There is a main latitude line known as the equator which is at exactly 0 degrees and seperates the world into two hemispheres, north and south. Longitude lines are vertical lines that extend from the North pole and the South pole. There is also a main line that divides the globe into two halves known as the prime meridian and its point of origin is located in England and it also sits at exactly 0 degrees. The two sides that are made are known as the western and eastern hemisphere.

i can describe the structure and function of leaves. and see how old a tree is by the amount of rings givien.

Today I learned about plural nouns and possessives

Today I used precise vocabulary while learning and speaking. My lessons today taught me about when making nouns plurals when to add s, es, or ies. Also learned when making possessives plural when to add s, 's, or s'.

I can identify the major eras in world history and describe the characteristics.

Today I learned that the American Revolution was caused by the unfair taxes set on things. To rebel the taxes that were set they had things such as the Boston tea party, to show the unfair taxing on tea.

Odd and Even Numbers (Courseware/Exempt)

Today i worked on my pretest. Got it done and moved on to odd and even numbers and i learned about how they go into one or not. if it has a remaindr of one after you divide it then it is odd. if it is divided into two and it is equal then it is an even number. thats all.
