What grade do I deserve?

I think the grade I deserve is from the range 90-95. I've done all the blog posts and I think I've done good. I try to do the best on my blogs and I don't have all of them missing. It's the end of the semester and I think I can end on a good note.

Favorite Earth Science Topics

Geology


My favorite section in science was section 5.1. That section was about weathering. I don't know why it's my favorite, but it is. I just like the Chemical and Mechanical weathering. I just think it's cool at how the rocks change and differ from where it started.






Meteorology





My favorite in this section was when we talked about the earth's atmosphere. I didn't know the earth was divided into four different sections and how they had different temperature levels.




Oceanography




My favorite about this section was about the offshore drilling. I liked this section because we did the whole soccratic seminar and we got to put ourselves in peopl's places. I also learned more about offshore drilling and the election itself.


Astronomy


I think that this was my favorite topic so far. I liked talking about the stars, the sun and the planets. I just thought it was so cool. I think I learned the most from this subject out of all the rest.
