My Review
Personally, I think I deserve an A on my blogs. I am currently up to date, and my spelling and grammar is good. Sadly, however, Mr. Dunn decides what grade I get, and not me. :(

Favorite Earth Science Topics
Geology: My favorite geology topic was the Mesozoic Era. This is because that was when the dinosaurs were around and I am fascinated by dinosaurs.
Oceanography: My favorite oceanography topic was the submersibles because they allow us to see and view ocean animals.

Meteorology: My favorite meteorology topic was the air masses. This is because I learned to read the weatherman's map for the first time.
Astrology: My favorite astrology topic was the String Theory. This is because it is very intersting to me and it's something I've never heard of before.
