TYPING GRAPHS

The speed graph shows the realtins and the difference between both net and gorss speed. The graph hel us compare the and realize how much I have improved and how much I went up and down in my scores. The graph is a bar (column) graph. The gross is in color blue and it is higher than the net speed (color orange). This graph shows all the results in the year and it help us look for times when my scores werte't as good, or were better.The net speeds are measured and paired up in two columns so that we can see how much we advanced in the year.

The graph I chose for accuracy is a line graph. The graph has the percentage (%) i the Y axis and a numer to see how many times it was done in the X axis. The graph shows ho much i improved.

This year , IN MY OPINION, I actually did adavnced in my typingskills. Now I can almost type really fast and without looking at the keyboard/ I still do some mistakes but I'm sure i'll get past them . I think we shhould really learn yo type faster and that'll help us with school work and other things in luife. Next year typing should vbe included to help us imprve our typing skills and become better writters in computers. Aalso it's not hard andmanybe alittle boringbut if it's actually helping us then it should be included.

MAP SCORES

The graphs are very usefukl but the bar graph is way better than the other because it's clear and compares the other results.





This graph shows clearly the increase and it compares my other results with the newer or older ones. To me thias is the best graph because I can see how much I iomprved and decresed my socres in the past years.

This graph shows more my increase in a more smooth way. it shows them all together and it gives key points to parts wererit has increased or changed. This graph is a good graph but stil the bar graph is best.

This graph shows my increase and decrese as the one above but this one is alittle more presise in the ups and downs in m,y scores. This graph shows a drastic fall and the the increase. At the end of the line it shows an increase that keeps going showing us tjhis is not the last test and the graph will keep on gorwing.

OIL SPILL

The night of April 20 the 2010, off the coast of Louisiana, a Deepwater Horizon rig exploded, killing 11 workers. The oil spill is expanding into the Louisiana's coasts and the Gulf of Mexico. Experts estimate that this oil spill would be greater then the < charset="utf-8">Exxon Valdez tanker spill off Alaska in 1989.The one who released 11 million gallons and was the worst spill at sea.Louisiana wasn't ready for this and is called in state of emergency. The oil company, asked the government fot help from the naval to stop the oil to invade coastal areas. Some fisherman are being asked for their boats to help the navy to control this terrible man-made mistake. The damages this will cause to the wildlife in that are terrible.Louisiana was recovering from Hurricane Katrina in 2005, some parts of the flora and fauna were rebuilding in the damaged areas. This oil spill will kill many of them and for sure damage the conditions that people in the costs of louisiana live in.The slick is being blowed and carried by currents and now threatening 5 states.

There aren't many solutions yet to this problem but people should start worrying more about it and start acting.The Pentagon sayas that the air force will be spreading chemicals to destroy the slicka and stop it from spreading, some people are concerned that this could cause more damage to the eco-life.The company is suffering two solutions but their solutions will take a long time to be done. One of them is to pipe up all the oil and bring it to the surface, the other is to drill a well to capture the oil and to switch off the release button.There are some orange barriers to keep the oil from expanding into the coastline. This oil spill will kill many oceanic life. OYSTERS, SHRIMPS, LITTLE FISHES, PELICANS, TURTLES, and many more animals will suffere the price of human mistakes. The world now revolves around petroleum and with something like this happening world will face with the loss of the millions of barrels lost in the deep water will be gigantic, the loss of a non-renewable resource that every country in the world is fighting for. This should encourage scientists and inventors to create another source of energy for the future of automobiles.

MAP TESTING

Last week we took MAP Testing from Northwest Evaluation Association (NWEA) , this test consists of an semestral check on your adavncement in school subjects. You take MATH, LANGUAGE AND READING. This year no one was really motivated or willing to put their best effort in the test. Most kids only did the eenie meenie minie moe . This is not good either for students or teachers. I think they should make more intresting pictures. There should be more color and a wider variety of questions. Many times we ha the same content but with different questions and that was boring. In fact the test was really boring and seemed very slow.The testing is really good when it comes to the system,by that I mean that you go to higher and more difficult quesions if you get right the question beinga sked and if you get it wrong, you stay o tat level or go to an easier one. Some questions were really easy and sometimes it felt liek you weren't getting anywhwere. To me there is really no point of doing it. If kids need help they will get it, we are no longer in primary to be told what we are doing wrong. I think they should do a test like the old SAT which were of filling the little holes beacsue taht one was more intresting because you had a physical test infront of you. I don't like or dislike the tests. I just really would encourage all to make it more graphical, add more color . I dion;t think I did better in my test than last time ebcause this time we all just want to get out school and we don't put mcuh effort in things that don't affect our grades.The MAP test was boring and i ereally would like to change the way they test us .
