Earth Science Honors - Tues., Mar. 31

Dear Students,

I hope you are staying safe.

I got a number or emails yesterday regarding difficulties with the Castle Learning site.  If you find that Castle Learning is being slow, please come back to it later when there is less volume on the site. 

To introduce our upcoming topic: 
On Long Island, most of the precipitation we receive is rain.  This precipitation can:  a) evapotranspire; b) run-off; or, 3) seep down into the ground, adding to (recharging) the water table as groundwater. Long Island's annual precipitation averages 45.2 in/yr--50% of the falling precipitation recharges the groundwater system, replenishing our sole source of freshwater.  Water companies drill wells below ground into water-bearing formations known as aquifers.  We are lucky to have this source of freshwater because many people around the world do not have a similar access to clean, plentiful water like we do.  As we begin learning about our groundwater source over the coming week, I hope you will consider how we can protect its availability and quality.  We all have a role to play!

Earth Science Honors - Mon., Mar. 30

Dear Students,

I hope you had a nice weekend--I wish it hadn't been so dreary, but we do need the rain. This brings us to a natural segue into our upcoming unit--Groundwater.

On Long Island, most of the precipitation we receive is rain.  This precipitation can:  a) evapotranspire; b) run-off; or, 3) seep down into the ground, adding to (recharging) the water table as groundwater. Long Island's annual precipitation averages 45.2 in/yr--50% of the falling precipitation recharges the groundwater system, replenishing our sole source of freshwater.  Water companies drill wells below ground into water-bearing formations known as aquifers.  We are lucky to have this source of freshwater because many people around the world do not have a similar access to clean, plentiful water like we do.  As we begin learning about our groundwater source over the coming week, I hope you will consider how we can protect its availability and quality.  We all have a role to play!

Dear Students,

You may have noticed today's advice from castlelearning:


Castle Learning - Site Update Message
Dear Castle Learning Community,

We are seeing online learning picking up considerable momentum as reflected in the extremely high user volumes we are experiencing on Castle Learning.  Unfortunately, at times, high usage is causing slow response times within the application, which can be very frustrating for teachers and students working to create and complete activities.  We are seeing peak activity between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., and faster response times outside of that window.

We apologize for the inconvenience and are working quickly to boost performance of the environment.  This will be an ongoing effort over the next several days and we will provide updates on our progress.

We greatly appreciate your use of Castle Learning and your patience as we absorb the increase in volume.

Sincerely,

Ron Borowski
Director of Customer Support

Important: It may appear as though assignments are missing when you access Assignments. The assignments have not been lost, but due to extremely high user volumes we are experiencing slowness in the page loading. We will be implementing changes between 7 AM and 10 AM EST on Saturday, March 28th and Sunday, March 29th. During that time Castle Learning will be offline and unavailable as we work to boost performance. We greatly appreciate your use of Castle Learning and your patience as we absorb the increase in volume.


In terms of completing the assignments that I posted for you, please make every effort to complete them by Wed., April 1st.  These are unusual times and we must all adapt to the situation at hand.

Be well.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Crnosija

Earth Science Honors - Thurs., Mar. 26

Dear Students,

I hope you can go outside a bit to take in some of today's springtime sunshine!

Most of you have completed yesterday's RB Topic #3 and have done well--for the students who haven't completed this assignment, please make it up in a timely manner.  RB Topic #4 is due today.

Given that RB Topic #4 consists of a number of Moon questions, I thought you might be interested in the data recently received by China's Chang’e-4 lander and Yutu-2 rover--which are the first to physically explore the far side of the Moon.  Remember that the Earth and the Moon are tidally locked, meaning that it takes the Moon exactly the same amount of time to rotate on its axis as it takes to complete one revolution of Earth.  This is why we continually see only one side of the Moon, that is--the near side.  The new data collected from the far side of the Moon shows alternating layers of coarse rock and soil, hinting at a history of violent impacts.  As we plan to set up space stations on the Moon, it's important to understand its structure and history.  To learn more about this recent Chinese mission, go to:  https://www.sciencenews.org/article/china-moon-rover-revealed-what-lies-beneath-lunar-farside-surface


Be well.

Mrs. Crnosija

Earth Science Honors - Wed., Mar. 25

Dear Students,

Here's some interesting space news on this cloudy day.

Scientists have discovered that our galaxy is much bigger than previously thought.  A new study has revealed that the Milky Way measures nearly 2 million LY across--this includes both the luminous part of the spiral disk as well as the halo of dark matter that stretches far beyond it.  This study will help scientists determine a better estimate of our galaxy's mass, as well as the number of galaxies that orbit it.  To read more, go to: https://www.sciencenews.org/article/astronomers-have-found-edge-milky-way-size

Most of you have completed yesterday's RB Topic #2 and have done well--for the students who haven't completed this assignment, please make it up in a timely manner.  RB Topic #3 is due today.

Be well.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Crnosija

Earth Science Honors - Tues., Mar 24

Dear Students,

I hope you are staying well, going outside to enjoy the longer hours of daylight and keeping up with your school work.

The Vernal Equinox was on Thurs., Mar. 19--the earliest vernal equinox in 124 years!  Remember what the equinoxes represent astronomically:  12 hours of daylight and night; the Sun rising due east and setting due west with the Sun's direct rays the Equator at this time of year.

Most of you have completed yesterday's RB Topic #1 and have done well--for the few students who haven't completed this assignment, please make it up in a timely manner.  RB Topic #2 is due today.

This is a difficult and unsettling time for all of us and establishing good routines will help us get through and move ahead.  We will have to find new ways of doing the things we used to do.  On that note, I will begin transitioning to Google Classroom over the course of the next couple of weeks.

For now, please continue checking my blog for daily updates.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Crnosija
 

Castlelearning Technical Difficulties - Mon., Mar. 23

Dear Students,

Castlelearning appears to be experiencing server problems--it must be due to the unprecedented heavy traffic on their website.  Please be patient, work on your other assignments and try again later.  I apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused you.

Best,
Mrs. Crnosija
