Electricity Learning - Van De Graff

By Jesus Olvera
When Paul blew bubbles at the Van De Graff they were repelled away from it. I think that happened because the bubbles had the same charge as the charge that the Van De Graff produced. When we formed a human chain that touched the Van De Graff no one got shocked because when Paul turned it on the charge was sent equally through everyone, but if someone let go and touched someone else the charge was sent to someone else, thus shocking them. When Paul put a napkin on the Van De Graff it flew away. I think that happened because the napkin had the same charge as the charge that the Van De Graff produced. When Paul put many napkins on the Van De Graff they didn't fly away. I think that happened because the napkins were thicker and needed more time for it to be charged. When Paul put paper strips on the Van De Graff they stood up because the paper had the same charge as the charge that the Van De Graff produced, thus causing the paper to repel from the machine and itself. When Paul put cheerios on the Van De Graff they flew away. I think that happened because the cheerios had the same charge as the charge that the Van De Graff produced.

Electricity Learning - Static Electricity Lesson

By Jesus Olvera
Station 1
In this station we had to rub a balloon on our heads or shirt, then put the balloon over some paper scraps and the balloon should attract the paper scraps. I thought that there were opposite electro magnetic forces between the balloon and the paper scraps, which made the scraps attract to the balloon.
Station 2
In this station we had to put two 10in lines of tape on the table, then rip them off the table and put them next to each other, when we did they repelled. I thought that there were similar electro magnetic forces between the two pieces of tape that caused them to separate.
Station 3
In this station we had to put two 10in lines of tape on top of each other, then rip them off each other and put them next to each other, when we did they attracted. I thought that there were opposite electro magnetic forces between the two pieces of tape that caused them to attract.

Dialectic Journal - 1984

By Jesus Olvera
Quote

1) “In the end the Party would announce that two and two made five, and you would have to believe it.”

Explanation

1) What this means to me is that the Party has huge control of the peoples minds, and they also have a lot of propaganda. The quote says that the party has so much power and control, that if they say 2+2=5 then you have to believe it or you might get killed. This relates to the real world because in china when the communists first took rule, started to go into peoples homes without permission, but the people didn’t and couldn’t do anything.

MUN Reflection

By Jesus Olvera
Part I: My Performance
I think I did a god job because I went on some speakers list and I made some comments. Not only did I get points for going up and talking I also made some meaningful comments. Overall I thought I participated and got involved in many caucuses and that's what made me do well.

Part II: MUN Overall Reflection
I thought MUN wasn't very fun, it could be funner. It was like waiting in the DMV except you talk about world problems. All you did was sit in a room with a bunch of bored or nervous people that don't really care about this, and discuss solutions to problems in the world. We should make MUN more fun and more exciting. I felt that MUN was dull and cold; in order to change this we should make it more exciting and less strict. We could decorate the room to make the MUN environment better and make the chairs more enthusiastic and less strict. We could also put little appetizers during caucuses like carrots and ranch, or chips, or fruit, etc. well that's what I thought about MUN and remember, this doesn't apply to everyone.

Socratic Seminar: The Legacy Of Columbus

By Jesus Olvera
Section I: Reflection on Performance

A) I thought the topic of the Socratic seminar couldn't be discussed well; it wasn't "juicy" enough. That's why I didn't say a lot. What I said was my knowledge and memories of Columbus Day in elementary school. I talked about how my teacher used to dress up like Columbus and wear a silly hat and carry a pumpkin (I don't know why). But what they showed my in elementary school was that he was a kind friendly man, but I didn't know that he killed a lot of people until 8th grade. My performance was low because I wasn't passionate and didn't participate, so I thought I did pretty badly.

B) I though the group did well, except for some people (including me) who didn't say anything. But other than that, the group was passionate and really into it. Some people got really deep and made connections about Columbus’s expedition to other people in history, which proves they know what they are talking about.

Section II: Reflection on Content - Answering the Essential Question

A) Columbus day shouldn't be a holiday because he really didn't discovery anything and he killed may people in his conquest of God, gold, and glory.

B) I was surprised that some people agreed with me. I didn't think some people would say Columbus Day shouldn't be a holiday because he didn't accomplish a lot. But some people said that it should be a holiday and we should get a day off because we need to rest and that we work really hard. Others said we should use this day to learn about him and honor him.

C) Christopher Columbus shouldn't have a holiday because he didn't find India, he didn't even find America! He shouldn't have a holiday because he killed many innocent natives just for gold and glory. His mission was to trade with India and connect Europe and Asia, but he never did! Here's proof that he never went to America or Asia:Columbus Day was created because people were lazy, not really for education. Columbus Day is celebrating murder and greed because in the packet Ms Golub gave us says that he burned people alive, cut their hands off, and ripped open their stomachs; including women, children, and the elderly. If we celebrate Columbus Day, we might as well make O.J. Simpson Day.

Chinese Dynastic History and Achievements

By Jesus Olvera
Group (2200-206 B.C.): In the beginning and early years of civilizations, The Chinese were the best at advancing. They had the First emperor, and were the first to domesticate silk, rice, soy and pottery. China made history that would affect the world up to this day. From 2200-206 B.C., they invented writing and literature, used and invented things of Iron because it was cheaper and strong then bronze, were the Fist to use Horses in combat, labor, and transportation, and made two great teachers and philosophers: Buddha (Creator of Buddhism, Lao Tse (Taoism), and Confucius (Confucianism).

Me (206 B.C. - 1911 A.D.): After the end of the Qin dynasty and the birth of Jesus, the Chinese got really serious. They used the Silk Road trading route to get and give silk and other goods to other places or countries. They had great inventions like the hot air balloon, the wheelbarrow, and the irrigation system, paper money, and made copper into coins. There was also a lot of war and conflict at that time. Also Marco Polo goes to China and presents new ideas and inventions, Confucianism, poetry, and art to China. The end of the Qing dynasty marked the beginning of the Republic of China.
