Week 16

MATH

I am working on my Pen Foster math class. I am now working on ratios and percentages. I took a test and I got 95%. Or 19/20. Right now I have an average of a 3.22 GPA. 

SCIENCE

I learned about the legend of why the sea is salty. It is pretty far fetched. Then I learned the real reason for why the sea is salty. It is salty because of the rocks on land. The rain that falls on the land contains some dissolved carbon dioxide from the surrounding air. This causes the rainwater to be slightly acidic due to the carbon acid (which forms from carbon dioxide and water).

SOCIAL STUDIES

I learned about Hellen Keller. I learned that she was born blind and deff. I learned that she had many tutors that tried to teach her, but the where unsuccessful. Untell one tutor named  Anne Sullivan. She taught Hellen how to write and speak and read brail. She is now a famous author and a great speaker. She died on June 1, 1986. At the age of 87. 

LANGUE ARTS

I am doing spelling. I get all the words right. I am also doing typing. I can type at an average speed or about 35 words per minute. I also have read for a long time. I am reading a book called The Sword of Jophes. 

TECH

I am researching the VR goggles that the drone flyers use. It is a lot of fun. I am learning a lot about it. I learned that they are VERY expensive. 

GYMNASTICS

I did a front walkover by myself. I have been working on it for a long time. I am working on my core strength. I also have been working on my splits. I am so close.
