Graphs for Typing Tracker

I feel that my typing accuracy has stayed the same. I changes when I take my time, but then I go slower. I need more practice, forcing myself to not looking at the keyboard. I should work on my accuracy.
As you can see my scores have improved tremendously. I think this program is helpful, and actually works. To make it even better you can force yourself not to look at your pictures. I have increased my typing speed by a lot. This will help me in school and in the future.

MAP scores with graphs

I like this graph. It seems to show the information in an organized way. I just don't think that people would immediately see growth. I think this would be a good graph for showing population growth.
I like this chart very much too. One thing I like about it is that it quickly demonstrates the information clearly. You don't have to study it very much, because that is the point of a graph. This chart is great for anything.
This is my favorite graph of all. I like this so much, because it clearly shows the growth in a simple way. Also seeing the growth is simple, since there is a line which goes up. Everybody knows what up means. Just in case you don't, it is that it is positively growing. This type of graphs suits all functions.

Oil Spill

This is Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico is terrible. It will be a mess to clean up and awful for the wildlife. Don't think for a minute that it is a minor oil spill, because you are wrong. This oil spill has been the biggest spill recorded yet. The company to blame here is BP. Partially, because they went the cheap way and did not do their yearly maintenance. The yearly maintenance is extremely important, because this oil drill is deep in the Gulf of Mexico. This means that there is more underwater pressure on the pipelines and the oil that is drilled out is much hotter. This oil spill is affecting many marine species, including this rare saw fish that was found dead on the water's surface. They need to get their act together before mother nature gets really mad.

Everyone wants to know how BP plans to clean up the disaster. It was said that it will take 74 million dollars to clean up the oil. Plus, BP is getting sued by Louisiana and other close by states.
One projection said that the oil spill will not be fixed until two months. This brought up other factors such as hurricanes. If a hurricane hits the oil spill area, the winds and waves will spray the oil all over the place. Some things that they are trying to do is dig re-leaf wells to release some of the pressure from the oil pocket. This way they can reduce the oil flow into the ocean and even conserve some of it. I think this might help with reducing the amount of oil that is filling the ocean and maybe in a few months seal this leak. I am afraid that this oil leak will stay in the water for a long time. It will harm many species, some of the species might become extinct. Maybe this might be a heads up for the whole world. This oil spill will light a spark in the worlds leaders and maybe after this disaster they will pay more attention to the environment. Even though this might seem bad right now it will help us in the future.

MAP TESTING

These last tests that I took were very bad. I rushed through them and did not concentrate on them. They were all in the 230's. Normally my high scores are like in the 250's. My reading test was terrible. I could improve my scores by taking my time on them and actually reading the answers. Also I shouldn't click randomly on so many pictures. One idea that I would suggest to the committee of MAP test, is that they should make the test shorter, but more intense. When they are too long kids get anxious and rush through them. There is one girl in my class that finished the test in 10 minutes. I was not really motivated by the free spirit day, because it is pointless. They shouldn't have had anything for improving your scores. You should always try your best and give it 100%.http://www.nwea.org/. Although, I agree that MAP testing is very important. Kids like me should try a little bit harder on these tests.

Presentaions about the Earth-

All of them were really good. They had very complete information about their topic. The only thing I noticed was that they forgot about the citations. Some of them needed to be checked for spelling and grammar. It looks really bad if you have a nice presentation, but the spelling is poor. I noticed that some people had to much information on the slides, rather than having short bullet points and some pictures explaining your topic. My power-point is short. I like them short, because this way I can explain from what I know. It looks better if you lecture, rather read off a screen. I will add more facts for the audience so they can get and idea of what the natural resources and us humans are doing. I like power-point, because you can usefully display information. I've seen better!

Power Point FAIL

I remember back in 5th and 6th grade English class we used to have to do Book Reports. Most people did theirs on PowerPoint. I will never forget Eduardo's PowerPoint presentation, because he made it so confusing with all of the animations and bad color combination's. It was so funny because he did on purpose, but it back fired on him, because he got lost of points taken off from his grade. Everybody in the class wrote the whole summary on PowerPoint and either read it off the screen or from a piece of paper. As I look back, I even did it. As I think about it, how do people want us to use PowerPoint!! I mean you can't do anything out of order or it will be considered unprofessional. I guess all you have to do is make the presentation simple and easy to understand.
I already know how to do that!
