Map Testing... Again


Once again, we had Map Testing last week. This time I didn't get good scores... Well, I did, but we were suppose to beat 2 of our 3 high scores in order to get a spirit day. The 3 of my scores were lower by 3 points. I didn't think any of them were hard. My grade wasn't bad, but I could have done better. The Map Testing we had on October were hard while I did them, but my grades were better. I hope next year I do better and get a spirit day.

PowerPoint Presentations

Over the years, before coming to high school, we had to make book talks on PowerPoint every year. I remember that we were all nervous before presenting, but I also remember that we were very lame. We all talked funny and no one could understand us. Our teacher pretended to and gave us a good grade but I could see on her face that she was so bored. I remember watching some students do a very bad job, like misspelling every single word, saying ''Um...'' in between each word, inserting dumb pictures that din´t even make sense and were so blurry that you couldn't see them! Now that we're in high school we have become much better. We talk clearly and don't get nervous. I feel like after each presentation I make, I become better than last time.

Peer Evaluations

When I did the evaluations yesterday I learned to look at more of a video than just the sight and music. I learned to really pay attention to it and look at the good and bad things of it. On my video, I would take off the last names and give credit to the person who made the song and to the Google images. I think that's all the bad things on it. On the two videos that I graded I did see some bad details. The eight grade video was good except for the clearness in taking of one of the students and on the twelve grade the images were all taken from the internet and completely random in order to the song, but other than those things the videos were pretty cool. This was an interesting assignment.

7

If the electricity would shut down in my house I would:

-Use a flash light for any problems I have.
-Turn on candles and put them all over the house.
-Use battery lanterns.
-I can't watch TV so I would use my laptop.
-Draw.
-Listen to music.
-Call friends and make a small party.
-Play my acoustic guitar.
-Create a song.
-Do some homework...
-Go to a friends house.
-Sleep

I would use a flash light to find thing I need. Like the candles. Or the lighter to light candles. I would use battery lanterns because I can't connect them to power. They would work the same way. Since my computer needs power too I would just use my laptop. I can use internet.

I can listen to music. I can do anything I can do on a normal day with it. I would maybe draw. I would get really into it because I would be very bored. I can call some friends. They can come to my house and talk. I could also go to someone else's house.

I could maybe play my acoustic guitar and have fun. I can invent a cool song about what I'm going through. If I'm very bored and have nothing else to do, I would do some homework. I would also sleep if I'm tired. Since it's late or night, I can't go to the beach or skate. I would go kitesurf or somewhere if it was during the day. I have many things I can do when the power goes away at night though.
