For this blogpost, I picked sample: 1 “Which sports shirt would you buy? A or B?”
The problem is that they only asked the first 10 students who entered the school, what if the other 790 students had a different opinion? I think this is biased because they didn’t ask enough people.
This picture is an example of linear relations because it starts off with a red trapezoid and then you add 2 green triangles to it each time.
Bard on the Beach was a really fun experience. They had lots of activities for us to do even though we were just reviewing a single story on Shakespeare. I enjoyed the small warmups, but I wish we would hve gotten straight into the story. I really enjoyed the Taming of the Shrew. I hope we can have this experience again in english 10.

Here is my Novel Study Powerpoint by Josh, Logan, and Tobiasz
The book is “Little Brother” by Cory Doctorow
I did the Characters and Setting slides.
Here is my poetry analysis for “The Wheels on the Bus.”
The app I picked for this review was the Salt and Solubility from PhET.
There are not very many options in the App, but it can help you understand solubility if you are a kinesthetic learner.
Define:
To get a science app and review it.
Discover:
Is this app free?
Will it help me with science?
What will I learn from this?
Dream:
My dream is to understand solubility using this app.
Design:
I went to https://phet.colorado.edu because they are a reliable resource and I looked for an app that could help me understand solubility.
Deliver:
The Salt and Solubility app looks like this when you launch it
You start by shaking the can at the top by dragging it up and down with the mouse.
The salt molecules then come out of the can
The salt molecules are at the top, on the right side, the app says that the green particles are chloride, and the red particles are sodium, which both make sodium chloride.
When the particles hit the water, the salt molecules break into individual pieces, meaning they have dissolved into the water.
This is the reason salt is soo hard to see when you put it in the water, it is because the salt breaks up into tiny molecules that you cannot see.
Debrief:
This app will help people learn solubility in science if they are struggling to understand it. This app is very useful for kinesthetic learners as it will show them the process of solubility and let them control the game.
This is my comic for a story called “The Sea Devil” that we read in class.
This is my common denominators using my favorite food pizza! Its also the easiest object to describe common denominators with
My drawings might not have the most accurate cut pictures (but to be fair, people are not perfect at cutting in real life anyways).
This is the pizza I’m using to describe common denominators with.
As you can see, this pizza is divided into thirds, but this is only 1 piece, so the fraction would be 1/3
This is another pizza that is divided into halves, and this is only 1 piece, so the fraction would be 1/2.
We can add these two pieces together, but they would not be even and would look like this
We need to evenly divide the pieces so the pizza pieces would all be even!
Step 1. Find the common denominator
1/2 does not go with 1/3 as we said before, so we need to find the common denominator
Common denominators of 2: 2, 4, (6)
Common denominators of 3: 3, (6)
The common denominator between 2 and 3 is 6, so now we will divide the slices to make it go into 6.
1/2 x 3 = 3/6
1/3 x 2 = 2/6
So 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6
Yay! now the pizza pieces are even and look good to eat! (except for that 1 missing piece)
If you are struggling with common denominators in math, it is always good to use pictures to describe common denominators like the picture shown above.
Thank you for reading this post.
