Adolescent Issues

JemmaLeave a comment

I was excited to get lockers so I could actually have a place to keep my stuff that was not at just my table. Now I like lockers a lot more than cubby’s and I think it was smart of me to look forward to getting a locker.

In lower school I was scared I was going to have a lot of homework to much. But now it depends on my schedule because some teachers than others and sometimes I have to do more in one night because I did not have time to do it until the night before it was due.

I am worried about the parent teacher kid conferences. I might tell my parents and advisor a few things in advance about how I have been working in school and how I will be presenting.

I am excited for spirit week. I am excited to have pajama day and twin day and have fun all week.

Population Graph!

I chose to make my graph the shape it is because I knew population started growing slowly and got faster from the video we watched in class about growing population so I started slow and got faster and faster with the growing population. When Ana told us that in 8,000 B.C.E there were 5 million people in the world it really changed the graph in my mind (because I had not started my dots on the graph). It changed how population would increase. In my mind I thought population would grow at a pretty even pace. But then when Ana told us I thought about it and it made sense because of tech people can live longer and babies are more healthy.

Atoms

Jemma2 Comments

A  challenge I came across was I would make a atom but then I would see something very different. I think a atom looks like this because atoms are so small and strong I think atoms are in a ball but not actually a ball and inside that there is protection and inside is a ball the real atom.  A really exciting part of building my atom was finally seeing what a atom looks like in at least my mind.

The 20 Meter Track Problem

Jemma1 Comment

I think in A, the graph on the top does not belong to A, B or C. Because it does not stop, go slow or start at the half way point.  In A I think the correct ones were the ones on the bottom. I think that because they stop but not for a long amount of time and then the rest of the graph is slower. I don’t think a lot of the problems where they are positoned is correct. I think the other to in A are correct because the people just walked for different amount of times.  Because the problem never said how long the people on the 20 meter track walked forCLW5-graphs
