This week, I worked on a lot of stuff. I studied for the Unit 2 NVOL Science 8 Quiz, and I got a score of 88.0014547%! I also finished my writing about the Renaissance, which was pretty fun because I got to research the Renaissance and watch videos. I also learned about earth tectonics, because that was part of Unit 4 grade 8 NVOL Science. I also did some WITW (What in the World) about the Russia and Ukraine situation because that’s a big deal these days. And I did Duolingo every day of the week.

I did the Science 8 NVOL quiz for Unit 2, and I got 88% (3 questions wrong). I think I could have improved my score a little by studying the material of the course a bit more in-depth. The topic of this unit was chemistry and atoms.
I wrote about the Renaissance, which was fun because I got to watch lots of videos about it! An example of what I learned is that Renaissance art was similar to Greek art.
I worked on my WITW about Russia and Ukraine. I learned about how the Russia-Ukraine situation is getting really bad. For example, I learned about why Putin is attacking Ukraine and the big deal with NATO and Ukraine and the chance that Ukraine will join NATO.
I learned about the earth’s layers (crust, mantle), and I learned about this because it was the subject for Unit 4 NVOL Science 8. I learned about how the plates move around and how they interact with each other.
I did Duolingo every day of the week about Spanish. I learned about how you an say “train” like “tren” so its removing the ai and replacing it with e, and I learned about how to say please (por favor) and thank you (gracias) and a few other things (like excuse me (Discúlpame)).
