Inferring in my Understanding


    Hey. Not in the mood for the usual welcome.
         - Me

Literal Information:   
        - Literal information is information found in the story that is vital to infer certain parts of the story. It may be obvious parts, and it could also be not.

Inferring:
        - Inferring is being able to read between the lines of stories and put together certain events to form a sensible timeline. Putting together a timeline in your knowledge will form something that could be a possible happening for an event in a story.

  Ex.
Literal - Robert was dismayed because someone ate his sandwich. Mike was hungry because he didn't eat breakfast.

Inferred - Mike could've eaten Robert's sandwich while he was away.

    Hi. If you've found this too short, then it's really all I could think of. Thank you for reading this. As always, please provide feedback so I may make better blogs. Thank you.

Wind Power


  Hello, again. It's been 2 weeks, so I'm still gonna get used to this, AGAIN.
               - Me


   Measuring weather.

Definitions:


  1.  Anemometer: An anemometer is a device used for measuring wind speed and direction.
  2. Beaufort wind scale: The Beaufort scale is an empirical measure that relates wind speed to observed conditions at sea or on land. 

Anemometer

MATERIALS 

  1. 4 dishes
  2. 2 sticks
  3.   cellotape
  4.   pencil
  5.   pin

STEPS

  1.  Go to one of the designated areas.  
  2.  Raise the anemometer as high as you can reach.
  3.   Time 15 seconds.
  4.   Count the spins within 15 seconds.
  5.   Record.
Groups size: 5 
Roles:
  • Timekeeper - Taylor
  • Counter - ME
  • Recorder - Kade
  • Anemometer Manager - JC
  • Wind Manager - Jaren
  1. Mount the anemometer in a place that has full access to the wind from all directions.
  2. When the time keeper says "Go", the counter in each group will count how many times the marked cup passes them in one minute and write it down.
  3. Repeat the above step four (4) times and record the number of spins on the chart.

FINDINGS

  • Record how many times it spins and record it in the table below.
  • You will need to time them and count the number of spins.


Place name on school grounds                                    Number of Spins in 15 seconds
1.Field1
2.Old J Block Site1
3.Small hill in Quadrangle1
4.Tennis Court Gate2

CONCLUSION:

 There was almost no wind in the field, the old J Block, and the grass hill in the Quad because the wind was very calm. The tennis court gate had the strongest wind of 2 spins/hr because the wind was slightly stronger than the other 3 areas and that the space nearby was creating a wind tunnel.

Personal Bio-Poem


  Hello. As you've read from the title, yes, this is VERY personal. It is my personal info.
              - Me

     Andrei
I am smart, friendly, and a realist.
I am the son of Jackie and Alex, the cousin of Yoehann, Lianne and Ninyo.
I love my dog, Wilford, and my family.
The three emotions I mainly experience is bored, happy, and mild depression.
The things I fear the most are spiders, the fear of changing, and actually managing to fatally hurt someone in my anger.
The things I would like to happen is to go to different countries and to see the world clean and healthy.

Yes. This is all true.
