End of Term Reflection
Here are some of the activities we did in class this term: Harper's Magazine ("Boots on the Ice"), Hurricane Evacuation Plan, Designer Babies (GATACA), Genetic Diseases, Evolution Movies/Research, NYT Science Reviews, Punnett Squares, Chemical Bond Diagrams, The Periodic Table, The Birth and Death of Stars

I enjoy most was the lesson on DNA and the lesson on Global Worming. I like them because it showed me how a person can get idenfide. How with a little peace DNA can prove many thing in life and in a death.Which i found very fun to learn. As for Global Warming how humity can change alot in the world. and how it can couse a lot a damige. The way you spoke and explain thing. Also the wording to the test. Computer Class = less of that Videos = [More videos because it more understanding Student Group Activities = [More because we help one another and explaine thing a little better Evaluations = [More wording things a littel easyer] [insert text here]

 * 1) Summary – According to William K Stevens Global warming has been top subject. As Global Warming seems to be getting more serious in 1990 its first the panel found evidence of global warming. But said is cause could be natureal as easily as human. Also in a land mark 1995 reporting that "balance of evidence suggests a discernible human influnce on global climate in 200, it the probability that human activity caused most of the warming of the previouse half century at 66%to 90% a "liken" rating global warming can be considered "unequivocal" and certified that 11 of the 12 last year were among the 2007 report is the sheer number and variety of directly observed ways in which global warming is already having a "likely" or "very likely" impact on the earth. Temperate zone change as for when it hot and cold. When its cold day, night and frosts had diminished. When frequency hot day and night or heat waves has increased. There are parts of the worldthat become longer and more intense. Precipitation has decreast most tropices but increased the northern southern hemispheres
 * 2) I can connect this article to the Global warming we were talking about in class the first weeks of classed. we spoke about when the humity is high it brings up the water leave in the water and can cause a big hurcaine every least exspect. We also spoke about the different kind of ways are reason why the climate change throughtout the temperturs.
 * 3) What i learnd about the that have hot weathercan really not be good because of the cause of the heat but then agian is thr same for being cold and having the humilty high is not good nighter.


 * 1) Know as the earliest disionered fossils in westan Europe, the homo ancesstor sediment was recently find in Northern Spain. With these findings, there is an aregrement stated when the species was roaming the earth. Was it 880,000 years ago as recogrized? or is it around 1.1 million years old ? When the new fossils promisional finds become more accurate, you make the choice.
 * 2) I can connect this article to class which was when we doing evolution. We watched a little vedio on a little bit of fossils. What we saw was fossils from many years ago. We also seen how many scientists study them, also they learn how many year are they and many more.Its not really much i can say because we didn't do much on it.
 * 3) What i learn about fossils was that they can be very old fossils and can still be identifyi. In there own way and also many diffrent ways. I also learn that scientists, noting that the earliest presence of human ancestors in Europe.

 * 1) Oppenheimer also stated which was true. Many countries around the world, based on advise and other types of help, have established making a bomb. Though some of these countries may say they have their own, they are wrong. Intelligence from spies and under paid scientists make this happen.
 * 2) Israel and South Africa were two countries that shared interest in each others knowledge in the 1960's. They shared raw materials and later made a bomb together. South Africa later threatened Luanda, a capital next to Angola. If they didn’t come to peace terms, it would result in a nuclear strike. Since that time to the late 1990's, South Africa has terminated a couple of their nuclear bombs.
 * 3) i can;t really can't connect this to anything we did because we really did not speak about it in class. But it cought my attention and i wrote about it.I learn that in all contrys they make bomb . They make all types of bomb, its was also cool to know that they can me mad many different was with many diffrent things. It goes to show in the artical that everyone in the us has some type of bomb in ther area.
