This week was spirit week and class, which was pretty hectic but I tried not to pull the "ugh it's first hour" this week. Therefore I came open to learn new things with a positive attitude. This week we did our weekly routin of working in our groups and extended our understanding by sharing and receiving our knowledge in the big class circle. We were given problems to solve and completed our task whether right or wrong. This week we also had a substitute because Mr. Abud was absent and we just finished discussing our boards and got a chance to ask each student what we didn't understand and how they got to that solution. Each problem consisted i the study of friction, gravity, a table, and the earth and how it works together depending on what type of problem we had. Like what needed to go up,down, left and right on the motion arrow lines.
Thankfully there was no assessment this week because of pep rally and shorten classes in spirit of homecoming week.

Week 5
This week we collaborated with other groups/tables on activities concerning car testing and white board calculating. This week we failed a couple of times in succeed the task on the first try. We realized our mistakes only after the failure and went back and fixed it and came back and succeeded. Although our chances lowered of getting a high score on the first try we were just happy to that we didn't fail in grade and that we finally conquered. We actually worked pretty good together
We had our third assessment but this week was the second one that actually counted. This test was pretty difficult for me but I did the best I can.

Reflection week 4
This week we actually started to review things that understand. We had a chill week with the half day and all. But went deeper knowledge of velocity and how it related to slope. We also learned more about motion graphs and how they are not called line graphs. We separated math with physics by using intercepts. I am noticing that so far we rarely use inches in physics because for the last couple of weeks we've been using millimeters and centimeters and were always measuring some type of distance and the time (seconds) it gets there.
Friday we took our second assessment, I think I did alright on it not really sure about it yet. This week also consisted for some more getting use to with explains the physics grading system to your parents and understanding it yourself. We also worked with our groups this week as normals while solving worksheets and with our collaborations we answered each others questions and asked Mr. Abud as a group if/since we shared common concerns.
