Cycle 2-Week 10

My question was, What exactly happens during a solar eclipse? The answer to that question is below:
From the Earth, a solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth, and the Moon fully or partially covers the Sun as viewed from some location on Earth. This can only happen during a new moon, when the Sun and Moon are in conjunction as seen from Earth. At least two, and up to five, solar eclipses occur each year, Not more than two can be total eclipses.Total solar eclipses are very rare at any specific location because it totally exists only along a small path traced by the Moon's umbra.

I have linked a picture because the ones i want cannot be added.

Blogging has improved many aspects of my current education status. I now have the courage and audacity to speak my mind throlugh my words instead of freezing up onstage. I haven't seen my grade, but have that feeling that i did extermely well. I love the commenting system because it tells me what i need to do to improve and be GREAT! I beleive i did the best on Gaming. I love to play the computer and designing is very fun, so i guess combining two of my hobbies made Gaming very easy for me. In the future, i would like to become a lawyer, therfore i will need to blog about different cases and present them to my own firm eventually!

Cycle-2 Week-7

The Persian Gulf-war. This particular oil spill was caused by an group of iraqi soildiers from Kuwaiti, who spilled and approximate amount of 400 million gallons of crude oil into the Arabian Gulf. This eventually caused the largest oil spill ever recorded! This particular spill was located in the Arabian Gulf, as mentioned above. I learned that one, President George h. bush was in office during this spill. Also, that we went to war with iraq(caused oil spill) for an unidentified reason. Here below is a link for my oil spill picture: http://images.ctv.ca/archives/CTVNews/img2/20070929/450_Oil_map_070929.jpg

Cycle-2 Week-6

There are so many different types of eginneers. Some of those certain types resemble construction workers, architects, and definitely desginers. Eginneering influences everything we do. For example, who do you think constructs and or designs the roads and sidewalks we drive/walk on? Obviously eginneers! If i had to choose what type of eginneer i would like to be, i'd choose a designer. Designers get lots of credit for sketching the layout of many famous buildings......Such as, the empire state building for example!!

Cycle 2 Week 5-blogging in schools

Obviously teachers and students are taking advantage of technocology. They have found out many ways to use the internet and blogging and relate it to Science. I personally love Ms.Jenkin's blog! She allows her student to get her advice,help, and insight on many discussions her 4th and 5th graders. I think that instead of having the question parking lot we have on the wall in class, Mrs.Douglas should place it on blogger and allow us to just comment our questions. We can also do something similar on Google Docs. We may allow the whole class to just write in questions. Then either if a teammate or teacher has the answer, they can also write it in.
