3 day weekend!!!! yea!!! helll yea!!! biznach!!! yea!!!

although i did everything required to my fullest abilities, i think i deserve a B. i dont think that i learned all that i could, but i did my projects, and i learned my 21st century skills, mostly. i learned critical thinking when i did my hypoxia project. it was so hard to find things on the altitude sickness hypoxia, mostly it came up with aquatic hypoxia, this made it so that i had to think, what could i type in to get the results i want, when i did find the page i got my info from, there was soo much information on it, i could have filled up two posters front and back. this required my critical thinking skills to say, whats important, what can i drop, and what can i simplify to make shorter. i kind of already knew how to use the internet to conduct research, but this class improved that skill by making it easier to think of what i could type in to get the best results. i learned about hypoxia, i learned about snowboard design, i learned about becon searches, i learned where the web cams are, i learned where the backcountry access gate by baldy is, i learnd the vertical drop of the ski mountain, from the highest lift, and from the top of palmyra, i learned about how avalanches start, what slopes are most susceptible to avs, and i also had time when we went up with the ski patrol guy to work on my one footed boarding skill.
