1. My favorite geology topic was when I learned about the layers that earth consists of. My 8th grade year I though it was just the: crust, mantle, inner and outer core. Then I learned there was the lithosphere, asthenosphere, and the Moho. I learned that the Moho was the boundary between the crust and the mantle. I also learned that the lithosphere contains the tectonic plates and is found in the upper mantle and the entire crust. And how the asthenosphere is the upper mantle. I learned a lot about earth that I didn't know before. Guess that goes to show you that you never really know something.
2. My favorite topic for meteorology had to be when we made our own photo story on the city of our choice. We described the weather how it was going to effect them, we even had to show a picture of the national forecast which very interesting. It was fun, and different. Even though I didn't get the best grade on it, I still liked that it wasn't what I was expecting and that it was a different way to teach things. Good job!
3. My favorite astronomy topic was the planets. Because I learned a lot more than- my very eager mother just served us nine pies- I learned that every Jovian planet has rings, and that word JOVIAN I didn't know that word even existed. I learned that Mars has a volcano named Olympus Mons, and I learned that one of Saturn's moons is named Titan. I just learned so much about space that I didn't even think twice about before.
4. I think I got at least an A on the final, hopefully. In order to prepare I study the practice test, I study all the notes I could find, and there was a lot of them , and I study the crosswords and some information out of the book. I think I could have study a lot more when we learned about the topic earlier in the year so then when it came down to the final I wouldn't have to study so hard and so long. But other than that I think I did good with the studying and preparing myself for the final.
