Cyclones in the earth’s ionosphere have left scientist all over the world to question the causes and effects of the “space hurricanes” themselves. Sheng Lu, a physicist at Shandong University, has researched and found 259 space hurricanes between 2005 and 2016. Sheng Lu’s team has found that these cyclones can split the magnetic field lines and this is what likely causes the hurricanes.

This week I didn’t have much struggle, but I can definitely say that the build your balance lab gave me some trouble at first. I had issues on making my scale balance out whenever I would add the water, but after I kept redoing it, I finally got it. Next week, I’m going to try a lot harder on reading the lab worksheet before we do the lab so that I’ll have a 100% understanding on everything.
This week I did well on the graph sample because I read the instructions and asked my classmates if I needed help or didn’t understand something.
Over this past month chemistry has really taught me how to apply being organized into the real life. In order to succeed in chemistry. You need to always make sure that you have all the right materials and in order to do that you need to be organized. Chemistry has also showed me how to be more responsible and make sure that I have all of the right stuff done and turned in on time
In chemistry I have learned that I can’t just ask people what to do all the time. I have learned to figure it out myself and also have learned to be more responsible by checking my syllabus so I get my homework done
A squall line tornado is a tornado that can form quick and die quick. This type of tornado is very dangerous because the tornado can not be track or predicted. Reaserchers plan to gather data about this type of tornado and make better dectetion systems to try and track and prevent this tornado.

Researchers are trying to gather data about a squall line tornado. This is because they are very dangerous because they are unpredictable and can form and die very quickly.

Scientists are currently studying the shrinking of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot by analyzing old and modern day diagrams of it’s red spot . This research compares the storm to a smaller feature called the “Permanent Spot,” aiming to understand why massive storms on Jupiter disappear over time.

This Past week on a scale from 0-5 I felt like I was a 3. I feel like I “scored” no higher than a three because I need to work on following specific instructions a little better, but I felt like I “scored” no lower because my study habbits and productivity was much better last week.
I would rate probably rate myself about 3/5 stars. Chemistry has definitely been challenging but I studied super hard for our most reason test and did well so that was definitely a confidence booster to remind me to keep trying! My homework habits haven’t been the best so that’s why I wouldn’t rate myself more than a 3.
I would rate my self 4.5 stars this nine weeks. I did not expect that I would do as good as I have done in chemistry. I’ve done this by being consistent and studying for everything we get.
My goal for the 2nd term is that I would end the term with a 90 or higher. I will accomplish this by trying to do all my homework and studying
My goal for the second term is being more organized and planning out when the homework is and when I need to study for tests. By doing this I will push myself to finish with an A for my final grade.
I think what I did well on for the test is knowing the elements but I didn’t study my sheet well and I missed some questions I shouldn’t have. Next time I should go slower and study more
I rate myself a 3/5 stars. I think i could have studied a lot more and prepared for a different way. Next time I need to find different ways for me to memorize my things so once I find a way I can stick with it. I also need to make sure i set time for just chemistry.
I would rate myself a 3/5 stars. I could have studied more than I have and I need to think of different ways to study so it will stick. The way I am studying now is not working.
I would give myself 5 out of 5 on the chapter 1 test because I studied enough and got a good enough grade for me now I have an A in chemistry and this really helps out with my GPA. I would do my same study tactic which was reading over my notes and writing them on a separate sheet of paper and as well I looked over the study sheet that was posted and used that.
I would rate myself a 1/5 Stars because i did very bad and didnt study well. there is nothing that i would say that i would keep doing, that i did on this test so I would probably change everything but mostly how i studied and how i take notes. I need to study better and i need to take in depth notes.
I am going to rate myself a 2/5 because I missed a couple of days this week. I have also been pretty sick on and off and haven’t been able to pay a lot of attention the days I was here.
I rate myself a 4 because I have been really attentive and been on top of my work and taking good notes over the lesson this weeks lessons over the compounds and formulas and polyatomic ions.
I would rate myself a 2/5 stars because I didn’t make the grade I wanted and waited til the last minute to study. To do better on the next test I will start studying earlier and study for longer on the test.
I rate my self a 2 out of 5 because I rushed through the test not processing them. Next time I need to slow down and go back and reread my answers.
I would rate my self a 2/5 because I did not give myself enough time to study. Next time I will make sure I study a few days in advance and not procrastinate.
During the week I stuggled at look at the syllabus. To fix this issue I decided to put the syllabus as my wallpaper of my phone so I will not miss a homework assignment.
This week I think I struggled on memorizing all of the polyatomic ions. After I kept writing them down over and over it finally started to click. I think that I did super good on the quiz and I’m gonna continue to study them each day so I don’t forget them!
This week I did very good on the polyatomics quiz because I studied them a lot. I struggled paying attention during notes this week and writing everything down.
This week I did well at checking the syllabus everyday and being prepared for class. I did well because I put a reminder everyday to check it
This week I did really well on the lab we did. Me and my partner were very focused and on task and that helped us understand a lot better. I also did a very good job at studying the polyatomic ions and that helped me memorize them for the test.
Chronic wasting disease is a deadly illness affecting deer, elk, and moose. It is caused by prions, which are misfolded proteins that can spread and cause brain damage. Scientists are working to understand how this disease spreads and whether it could ever affect humans.

In around 2700 BC pyramids started getting build as monuments for the tombs of their king. Researchers think that they used a water elevator to lift those heavy blocks up into high positions.

This semester. I would rate myself about a three out of five. I definitely could’ve worked a lot harder and focused much more on studying in a better way. That was way more productive. I do think that I did really well on the labs and it definitely helped with understanding a lot better but next semester I’m going to try and figure out a new way to study in order to prepare for the test.
I give myself 3-5 because I took decent notes and did good in lab and pretty good on some quizzes. This semester I did average I’m hoping to be better next semester
This semester I give a 2 out of 5. I should have studied and tried to learn the lesson better. I did well on some things like labs and homework but definitely need to improve next semester.
My goal for this year is to definitely focus a lot more on my studies and making sure that I understand how to apply what I’ve learned in class instead of just memorization.
My goal this semester is to be able to focus on school just as much even with basketball going on. Most of the time when basketball gets busy I start to slack on school work.
I did good at paying attention in class this week. I did good on my labs. Me and Evan got done very fast.
This week I struggled with doing my homework on time. To fix this I started setting a timer to do my homework.
One of my struggles this week was doing my chemical formulas wrong so then I messed up balancing them. I also am struggling to memories the synthesis laws.
This week I would say I’ve struggled on learning the rules and the reasoning for applying them. I am going to continue to study over the weekend and I think that that will definitely have me ready for next week.

I give myself 4 stars this week. I did good on my lab today and I did alright on my test. I shouldn’t have missed some questions I did tho so I give 4 stars.
I would rate my self an 3 out a 5 just because I could have studied harder. Although it’s a 3 because I did study some and got a good grade
I would rate the last chapter a 5/5 because i understood it well and i did better at paying attention. I did decent on the test and i studied efficiently.
I would rate last chapter a 4/5 because i understood it well. However I didn’t do as well as I wanted with careless mistakes. Overall tho it was pretty good.
I would rate myself about a 3/5 on this chapter I’m definitely understanding a lot better and have been better about applying what I learn, but I could still be confident in it!
I would rate myself an 4 stars this week I have been attentive in class and been doing my homework in study hall. I would rate myself this because I have been trying to get my grade up and trying hard to do so
This week I’d say I’ve triumphed on doing my homework and paying attention in class so that hopefully I do good on the test.
