Week 19 Blog, Due Sunday, January 27th, 2013

As we gear up for our exit level TAKS test, I want everyone to think about what is required to be commended.  Remember, in order to exempt the second semester final for physics, you need to get commended performance on your science TAKS test.  So, I want you to think about which objective is your weakest and what are you going to do reach the commended level.  Some things to think about are after school tutorials, classroom attendance, completing classwork, studying on your own time, etc..  You may also want to reflect on anything you are going to do differently this semester, especially if you barely pasted the first semester.  This is your chance at a fresh start!  Remember, you must post at least one original comment PLUS comment on at least one other person's post in order to get full credit.  If you have questions or any problems posting, please let me know BEFORE 5 pm Sunday.  As always, if you have trouble posting, you can email me your responses.  Happy Blogging!

  7. My goal for this semester is to complete all my inclass work as well as my homework and also study more and come to tutorials in order to be able to achieve my expectations of obtaining a high grade this semester unlike last semester that I blew off.

  8. My weakest objective was 1 & 4. My goal for the semester is to actually pay attention and ask for help instead of just being lost.

    1. Yeah or just stay for tutoring and learn a lot as well. I believe 1 and 4 are hard because those are my weakest.

      Delete
    2. My objective 4 was kind of my weakest also, i just work really hard to understand more though.

      Delete
    3. I need to also ask more questions when I don't understand something.

    4. Yay, nice to know I'm not the only one that gets lost and whatnot.

    2. How are you not going to get commended you are always going to tutorials for at least an hour.

  15. My weakest objective last year was 2 and this year is 4 and 5. My goal is to commended and to reach that goal i will pay attention to the skills you will teach us in class and study in my own time. I will also make sure to ask you question on what i don't understand.

    1. I think that objective 4 has been the weakest objective for most people probably because it is related to Chemistry.

      Delete
    2. I want to get commended on my test this year too last year I missed it by one point so I will study harder this year.

      Delete
    3. I will ask questions too, since i really want to get commended.

  17. My weakest objectives were 1 and 4 because they relate mostly to chemistry which I have to refresh myself on. I plan on doing this by studying more the objective and asking questions so I can be able to get commended just like last year and possibly make a perfect score. On the otherhand my grade is just fine and this semester I will try to keep it like last semster's which was a high A.

    ReplyDelete
  18. My weakest objective was #3 & I think it was just because I haven't focused on TAKS Science Materials since last year so I just need remind myself. This semester I will do all blogs & and aim for a high B or A! Hopefully. Lol

    1. Yea many of us need a refresher and maybe doing your work this semester will help! :) it'll help keep your grade high and ask your group if you need help with anything

  19. Well I was gone for two days this week so i'm not so sure what objectives are my weakest. I will try my best to attend tutorials and study to refresh my memory. And this semester my goal is to get an A and keep it that way and not let my grade drop.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I missed one from every objective, so I would have to work on all objectives not just one in order to be successful. I am also going to make sure I do all of my work & get help on what I dont understand. I hope to have nothing but A's (:

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I agree, going to make sure to ask questions on something that I don't understand and do all of my work in order to get all A's :)

      Delete
  21. If I remember correctly my weakest objective was 1 or 2. As I went back through the test I kind of felt silly seeing what I missed because i knew the answers. And my goal for the semester is to get all my work turned in as for the test I want to miss at minimum of one question.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I believe my weakest objective was number 4? I'm not too sure, but I feel like I did pretty poorly in all the objectives. I definitely think I need a good refresher of certain areas of past subjects. Something I want to change this semester is my work ethics like time management and procrastination! I also want to keep studying and actually working through my work.

    1. I thought you're weakest was objective #3? But hopefully you and the rest of the group can help me stay on track :)

  23. I think my weakest objective this year was objective 3. This semester I hope to not be lazy when it comes to homework or class work and ask questions when i really don't understand something. I hope to get a high A!!

    ReplyDelete
  24. My weakest objectives are 1 and 4 so I'm going to practice more with those objectives and make sure that I keep coming to school so that I don't miss anything

  29. my weakest objective was objective 4. I know this semester i'm going to have to study harder if i want to exempt.

  30. i've been doing pretty well in class, but i feel like sometimes i lack comprehension of certain things. I think i should start studying more on my own time, or even form a study group. I think my weakest objective was 4, therefore i need to review those types of questions, especially.

  31. My weakest objective is 1 and 2. To do better i am going to come to tutorials. Also ask questions when i don't understand some thing.

    ReplyDelete
  32. i can't recall what my weakest objectives are so i suppose ill be focusing more in class and probably taking better notes. Especially when math problems are required.

    ReplyDelete
  33. ifogort which objectives wer my weakest. But to make commanded on this TAKS test im sure i will have to make time to stay after school and get use to all the types of problems. Also to have faith in myself.

    ReplyDelete
  34. My weakest objective is nature science or something like that ,. But this semester Im gonna study my best and do my very best to make commanded on this TAKS test !:)

    ReplyDelete
  35. My weakest obj. Is #3.... What i can do 2 do better is study harder or stay 4 tutorials

    ReplyDelete
  36. My weakest was objective 5. I just need to study cause objective 5 is mostly physics stuff, and I suck at physics.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I don't know. What is my weakest subject because I was not in class the day you reviewed the answers but I can say that the mnra and the classifying the plants something like that. I will study so that I can have no confussion in those topics.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. yes i would suggest reviewing backwards starting with biology since that is the oldest science we have learned.

      Delete
  38. i don't remember the objective but i have problems using formulas

    ReplyDelete
  39. all i need to do is stay more focused and pay more attention and write better notes to hope to get commended for the first time in physics!

    ReplyDelete
  40. I think objective one was terribleeee. I could do better by studying and paying attention, i'd like to be able to exempt.

    1. Same here. I think I just really have to study.

  41. Well I have no idea what my weakest objective was, but whatever it is I will plan to brush up on that and any other objective i'm not close to 100 percent on. Hopefully my efforts can lead to me exempting physics 2nd semester.

    1. Yes everyone will pretty much want to study more and brush up their skills.

  42. I Forget what my weakest objective was, however i will be studying more so that i can pass all my tests.

    1. We can study together and figure out our weakness.

  43. as ironic as it may seam being that I'm taking a physics class my lowest score was in subject 5 which is mostly physic concepts. i will improve by finding a better grasp on the basic concepts.

    ReplyDelete
  44. My weakest objective was number 1 and I plan to finish all my work so I can exempt my final.

    ReplyDelete
  45. my weakest objective is biology i always see to forget the cells and stuff

    ReplyDelete
  46. my weakest objective is 4 and 5 because there is so much to remember unlike 1 and 3 where there just categorizing organism.

    ReplyDelete
  47. my weakest objective was objective 1. I will plan to do more reasearch on that objective and study more of it.
