Net Speed Graph


Here is a picture of my net speed from all over the year. Here you can see the rises and the downs I had over the year. In the graph you can observe that some days, I was pretty good, but sometimes my scores weren't that successful. I think I've improve a lot this year. I remember that in the beginning of the year I had many issues in typing. I used to type very slow, now my scores have improved dramatically. Now i'm able to type faster. For example most f the times my net speed has increased a lot. Now I have 30s and I used to have like 17 or 20s. I think typing should be included in next year, because like that many students will be able to type faster and they life would be easier. It is the best thing to do. They would feel less pressure when they have to do homework's and stuff like that.
I think that typing tracker really helped me a lot this year, I've become a faster in typing.

Graphs


Pow 3: This graph can also help you read the percentages. Although is a bit confusing, because most of the grades are very close., but it also shows were it rises and where it goes down.

Bar graph: This graph demonstrates percentages. This chart is helpful because if can help you understand how much I increased in the tests. You can observe some bars going up and some of the going down.

Pie Graph: This is not a good graph, because it doesn't
demonstrate specific information. If you look at
the graph you can't tell anything about it. Not the growth
nothing. This is not a good graph. It needs more information like estimations, actual data etc.

Oil Spill

This year the world has faced one of the major enviromental issues. This is the Oil Spill that occured in Louisiana. It was a catastrophic explosion that caused an oil spill from a BP offshore drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico has reached the shoreline. The leak is currently releasing 5,000 barrels of oil per day, this oil spill is on track to become the worst oil spill in history.
This even has made me understand even more why environmentalists are so passionate with their beliefs. This is a nightmare of crude, cruel proportions. This company is killing all of our marine life and the nerve you have to want your life back and to say the size of the spill is way less then the water that is in the ocean that is not the point you are killing everything in that area and that affects the entire ocean. To solve this situation is in the best interest of humanity, this is important for all. Let’s work as simple human beings interested in save our gulf, eventually the pollution caused are going to affect all the oceans. It's time for bp or OBAMA or any rich company to offer job to all the jobless in the country and to request authorization to employ illegal’s and bring people to help clean this mess, an human chain of workers along the beach is needed, need to fight. To solve this situation is in the best interest of humanity, this is important for all.

Map TESTING WEEK.


Last week, we had our MAP TESTINGS. They were OK, I thought i was going to get all stressed out but as matter of fact I didn't. I was relaxed, and I tried my best in each one of the tests. I expected to have better grades in English, but unfortunately my highest score was in math, I got 234. Which I felt very proud of. I was expecting more hard questions or many more difficult things, but I think that I've improved a lot in math. I remember that in the last ones I got like 215. Which that demonstrates that I've develop a lot. I felt very good, when I finished my exams, with no more stress!!
