I learned that there are different kinds of variables. I am confident that I know what an inference is. I wish that Ms. Garcia would give us more quizzes.

Music in a Classroom: Is it a Distraction or a Study Tool?

Science WAC - Music in a Classroom: Is it a Distraction or a  Study Tool ?        “When good music hits you, you feel no pain,” said Bob Marley. Many would have agreed while others would argue that music serves as a distraction. I stand with a foot in each world-- it really just depends on what kind of music. I believe that music can help you study if you don’t turn it up incredibly loud and if it’s the kind of music that’s purely instrumental-- without words. But at the same time, I believe that music is only a distraction-- the amount of times I’ve tried to write something and listen to music at the same time and failed because I ended up writing the words into a document, then had to go back and delete them. To help you study, music should be turned at a low volume and should not contain words to confuse you. Since I listen to a variety of music, I’ve learned to choose music with simple tones rather than an onslaught of confusing melodies....

The Skeletal System

Image
The Structure & Function(s) What is the function of the skeletal system?   The job of the skeletal system is to provide support - the spine is what allows us to remain upright. Other jobs that the skeletal system is movement and calcium storage. They store calcium, which allows our bones to be strong and hard to break.  https://media1.britannica.com/eb-media/51/54751-004-602B994D.jpg What are the names and functions of the major organs in the skeletal system?  The names & functions of the major organs in the skeletal system are... Bones:  such as the cranium, or also known as our skull, that protects our brain. The human body has 206 bones which is the main framework that provides support and protection to our more vulnerable organs. Ligaments & joints : ligaments are collagen tissue that connect one bone to the other. These attachments are formed into joints, allowing the bone(s) to move in a certain range of area & direc...

Weekly Blog (10|6|16) - Cell Energy Cycle

Image
Summary: During this week, our class was instructed to complete a packet for the Gizmo  titled Cell Energy Cycle. When I was filling out this packet, I learned that there were two types of respiration - aerobic & anaerobic respiration. I also learned that while aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria, anaerobic respiration takes place within the cytoplasm. Another thing that I learned while filling out this packet is that pyruvic stands for pyruvic acid. One other thing that I learned is that the chemical formula for pyruvic acid is C3H4O3. S&EP: Developing and using models -  Did you build a model, draw a picture, created a concept map, etc? I used a model when using Gizmos to answer the questions on the packet, such as "What happens in the mitochondrion?" That was when we had to click the next button then write down our observations on the paper about what happened in the mitochondrion (also known as the mitochondria). Another example of thi...
