Research Misshaps

 You can make mistakes when you write. You can think you are doing every thing correct and then publish it and it could be totally incorrect! You can get someone to read it, for instance a teacher and they say... Um excuse me, this is incorrect data in your project. If you're going to search it on the Internet you need to search it multiple times in different words. Which ever info comes up the most is probably the correct one. But that isn't the case all the time. Someone wrote the incorrect data in a 4th grade textbook and one of the students parents realized it and reported it and the author made the kids learn incorrect things about the Civil War. That's one major example, the same thing could happen to you too so always check more than once when you're researching somthing!

Reading

I am not one of those students that has 1400 pages or more read. But i am trying to get there right now im at about 1,000. I know i can get there easily if i really try. I am one of those students that are on or above grade level on SRI. I was below grade level yesterday until i did SRI in AE and i got on grade level and raised my score by almost 200 points.
