Shake Our world

Layers


Lithosphere
Activities: Music Videos, Brain Pop
Topics: Earth's Interior, Plate Boundaries, Volcanoes, Earthquakes
Their are four earth layers which is crust, mantle, outer core, inner core. The crust have two different types, the oceanic crust and continental crust. Earth have 3 types spheres, which is the  Lithosphere, Hydrosphere and Atmosphere. The Lithosphere is the solid part of the Earth, the Hydrosphere is the liquid part of the Earth, and the Atmosphere is the gas part of the Earth. Plate Boundaries is a movement of plate, and there have three different boundaries, one is Convergent Boundary is two plate come together, other is Divergent Boundary is make two plate pull apart, last one is Transform Boundary will make two plate slide past each often. Volcano is happen the pressure build up inside the Earth cause the rock push through the surface. Volcano have three different types. The cinder core, composite volcano and shield volcano. Earthquake is strong movement of the Earth's crust. The breakage create three types of seismic waves, which is P wave, S wave and L wave.The L wave is the most dangerous.


Atmosphere
Activities: Foldables & Mini-Quiz, Demonstration Lab
Topics：Fault, Continental Drift
Their are 3 types of faults, which is Normal Faults, Reverse Faults and Strike- Slip Faults. Normal Faults is one plate go down, Reverse Fault is one plate go up, and Strike- Slip Faults is two plate slide side by slide. Alfred Wegener's that the continents were once a single super continent called Pangaea, over very long time the super continent slowly broke apart into today. The evidence is Puzzle, Fossils, and Rock Types.

Mantle

Activities: Exploration Labs

Topics: Density Lab, Ring of Fire Lab

The ring of fire is the area around Pacific Plate that have many Volcanoes and Earthquakes happen occur the Plate Boundaries. There have most hot spot.


Critical Thinking Question
Do you agree with the theory of plate tectonics? Why or why not?
Yes, I agree with the theory of plate tectonics. I believe the Pangaea and broken down move a little bit ever year. And the Scientist find the evidence of this theory.


Reflection
1. What did you enjoy most about this project and why?
I enjoy most most about this project is do the Demonstration Lab, because I do a lot fun thing in that lab.
2. What was most challenging for you during this project and why?
The most challenging for me during this project is we have a lot of information to remember and we need to do thing very fast because we don't have many time.  
3. What new skills did you learn from doing this project?
I learn when I have a lot of thing to do how to spend the time.
4. Is there anything that you could have done to improve any of your work? Explain.
If we have more time I think I will make my work better, my foldables can be more unique. And can have more time to make me understand everything.

Massive Movement Project

Eclipse

Vocabulary:

Lunar Revolution 月球公转

When the moon moves around the Earth.

Umbra 暗影

The dark part of the shadow.

Penumbra 半影

The light of the shadow.

Total Eclipse 全食

When the entire sun is covered by the moon.

Partial Eclipse 偏食

When only part of the sun is covered by the moon.

Lunar Eclipse 月食

When the moon moves behind the Earth into the shadow.

Solar Eclipse 日食

When the moon moves between the Sun and Earth and block the light to Earth.

Summary:

When the moon moves around the Earth is call lunar revolution. Lunar revolution cause different eclipse. Total eclipse is when the entire sun is totally covered by the moon, the umbra is happens. Partial eclipse is when only part of the sun is covered by the moon, when is partial eclipse the penumbra is happens. When the moon moves behind the Earth into the shadow is call lunar eclipse. The solar eclipse is when the moon moves between the Sun and Earth and block the light to Earth.

Video:

Critical Thinking Question:
How the Earth affected by movement (revolution)?
The Earth revolution take about 365 days or 1 year, and the rotation on the axis is 24 hours.  The Earth revolution cause four seasons. Which are the Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter. When the first of each seasons will have Solstices or Equinoxes. The Earth rotation cause the day and night. The lunar revolution is moon moves around the Earth. The lunar revolution cause the two different tide. Which are the Neap tide and Spring tide, and the lunar revolution will cause the moon phase.


Reflection:


What did you enjoy most about this project and why?
I enjoyed when we make the video, because that have a lot of fun. We tried the best to make the video to best. We take over again and again to make it best. Then I use iMovie to choose the best part then make them together get a good video.


What was most challenging for you during this project and why?
The most challenging for me during this project is take video, because we need practice many time. I have moves the picture and the word, that is hard of me to make that.


What new skills did you learn from doing this project?
I learned how to take the video, and how to use iMovie to edit it.


Is there anything that you could have done to improve any of your work? Explain.
I think I can the video more better, like put more crops. And the back ground music is too loud I think I can make the back ground music more whispered, that will be better. 

Pennsylvanian Period

Summary

            The name of my period is Pennsylvanian Period. This period went from 286 to 325 million years ago. In that time the first reptiles appeared and may ferns. Life in the Pennsylvanian Period. The age of amphibians appeared, many insects are evolved. In that time some reptile appeared plant are verg huge like 45m tall.

Reflection

1. What did you enjoy most about this project?
     The thing that I most enjoy about this project is everything about this project, because I enjoy to like to find information and create a video.

2. What was most challenging about this project? Why?
   The most challenging about this project is to find information, because I don't know the information from internet is correct or not.

3. What you change about this project and why?
    The thing that I want to change about this project is to easy to get the information and understand it, because the information from internet is correct or not correct.

Star

1. What is a star?
A star is a big gas ball. They have different colors, size, temperature and luminosity. The star made of gas and dust.

2. Types of Stars.
The four main types of stars- Whiter dwarf, Main Sequence, Giant, Super Giant. The characteristics of stars is  ages, size, temperature, luminosity, color and spectral class.
Ages- Young Stars, Middle Age Stars, Old Stars
Size- Small Stars, Medium Stars, Large Stars
Temperature- Hot Stars(30000°-10000°), Medium Stars(10000°-4000°), Cold Stars(4000°-2000°)
Luminosity- Bright Stars(100000-100), Medium Stars(100-0.1), Dim Stars(0.1-0.0001)
Color- Blue, Blue- White, White, White- Yellow, Yellow, Orange, Red
Spectral class- O B A F G K M

3. H-R Diagram
H-R Diagram is a graphical tool that astronomers use to classify stars according to their temperature, luminosity, color, spectral types and evolutionary stage.

4. Nuclear Fusion
Nuclear Fusion is two Hydrogen gas molecules into a Helium molecule inside the stars. The nuclear fusion is create the star energy. H+H=He

5.The Life Cycle of a star
First, all the star is born are Stellar Nebula. The stellar nebula is a cloud giant star. There have 3 different types star. Is the Sun-Like Star,Huge Star, Giant Star.
Sun-like star is born with Stellar Nebula, then become Red Giant, Planetary Nebula, White Dwarf, and last is Black Dwarf.
Huge Star is born with Stellar Nebula, then become Red Supergiant, Supernova， and last is Neutron Star.
Giant Star is with Stellar Nebula too, then become Red Supergiant, Supernova，and last become a Black Hole

Hurricane Irene Project

Critical Thinking

Hurricane

1. What effect does water temperature have to the creation a hurricane?

The effect that water temperature have to the creation a hurricane is the hurricane will the water become warm. 

2.Why would there be more damage to an area during high tide?

There be more damage to an area during high tide, because the water will get in to the ground.

3. If an area is fully saturated, how will this be more dangerous for an area?

Tide

If an area is fully saturated the hurricanes will make the water became the flooding.

4. Why would there be more flooding if the ground was fully saturated?
There be more flooding if the ground was fully saturated the water won't have place to go then became the flooding.
