1. Natural Forces Reflection
WildWeather Experiments:
My favorite weather experiment was the tornado experiment
because it actually made a replica of a real water tornado.
An important thing I learned about weather was that sometimes
weather can cause natural disasters and can affect some people’s
supply systems.If I did more experiments, I would like to know
about how you can be prepared for a tsunami.
Scientific Report Writing:
I wrote scientific reports about air pressure, the water cycle,
static electricity and length. The easiest section to write is the
method because when I did the experiments it was easy to
remember the method and it was easy to write the method down.
The hardest section to write is the discussion because it has one
part that was called the science behind it and it was really hard
for thinking how it was linked to the real world.I am proud of my
report on avalanches because it had plenty of details of avalanches
and landslides. Also it had plenty of formal words and scientific
words about avalanches and landslides. While writing these
reports, I became better at understanding at words I don’t know
and correcting my grammar.
Research:
The natural disaster I researched was avalanches and a
little bit about landslides.During the research, I found it easy
to take notes from videos because it has words under the video
and it had plenty of information.I found it difficult to take notes
for impact because mostly all the information was on cause.I
worked especially hard at not trying to write in complete sentences
when I am taking notes.The best source of information was from
the brain pop video.If I wrote my speech again, I would try to
add some funny but short jokes. Also I would try to add a
gimmick.
Delivering My Speech:
I am proud of my documentary because it interesting and it was
funny for the audience so the audience would not get bored.
I worked especially hard at remembering the words and making
gestures.
2. Next time I deliver a speech I will try to make my voice a little
louder and make some more eye connect.
What else?
During this natural forces unit I especially enjoyed writing the
speech because I wrote plenty of information.After this unit, I
might continue to follow some of the avalanches rules that were in
the speech so I will be safe from avalanches.
