Sewer treatment blog

I learned many things at the sewer treatment plant when we visited it a week ago. I found the method of turning the water into bio sludge very interesting. The biological lifeforms that help clean the water i was completely unaware of and i found it very interesting. The machinery need is very expensive and there is much new technology that could better improve our sewer treatment but we cannot afford it. I learned how bad it smells there which is understandable. All in all i learned how it travels through the plant and the way solid waste is extracted from the water separating the 2 and then the water is treated and released back into the system. I loved going there and hope to learn more about it in the future.

ACT Q's

1. How did you do?

I did alright I only missed 7 questions.

2. What skills could improve your score?

Learning how to read graphs and analyze them better would help improve my score

3. Go back and look closely at the questions. Do you think knowing more content knowledge about the
questions would help you do better?

No i do not think background knowledge would help because all of the information is right in front of you.

4. Do you think practicing higher level thinking questions could help you?

Yes, practicing harder questions would better prepare you for the easier questions you would find on a standardized test.

5. How are you doing on your final project? Use the remainder of the hour to do some online research.

I have not started i need to speak to a city council member or do some online research if i can find anything on the sewer drainage plan.

Day after tommorow post

Answer the following questions.
1. How could climate change happen? 
   
    Climate change occurs when temperature on earth either increases or decreases. For temperture to change things need to affect it, it doesnt do it on its own. The burning of fossil fuels, deforestaion and other human forces affect the climate. Wind currents as well as ocean currents affect the climate along with the size of glaciers.

2. Could it happen like it did in the movie. 
   
    No it could not. The movie was a dramatization. The process of such dramatic change would take  hundreds even thousands of years.

3. How can climate change effect the issue you did your research on?
       
    Tornadoes wouldn't be able to be produced as easily in colder temperatures. If it were warmer tornadoes would be more abundant and destructive than they already are.
