This week had a long weekend! Yay! I worked on A lot of studying to make up for it though. I worked on a bit of world history on Khan Academy, where I learned about WW1 and WW2. I also found out about the Battle of Midway, and I watched a video about it. I also looked at checking if a series would converge or diverge. Other than that, I worked on studying for a Science 8 final test.




1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 + 1/16 + …
converges (comes to a single value) or diverges (goes to infinity).

Hi Ethan,
Thank you for your final Observing for Learning of the year!
It does sound like you packed a lot into the week with Tetris, math, science and learning a lot about World Wars I and II. The spark for WWI does seem like an astonishing reason for starting such a massively destructive conflict — there were certainly a lot of complex tensions between countries in the lead-up to Ferdinand’s assassination though. Even more mind-bending to me is just how much WWI changed the world politically, socially, culturally, technologically, economically, environmentally…
I agree that hexagons are cool. They always make me think of beehives!
I’m keeping this final response short again as I complete your Year End Summary.
I hope your Science test goes well.
It’s been a joy working with you this year Ethan, and I wish you the very best on your new school journey next year. Have a great summer!
Best,
Shannon
