This site was very helpful for me in my Math class. It helped me remember which type of graph was which. Even though it wasn't the most interesting looking website to read through, it helped me remember all the functions and equations that go along with them.

I recently found a website that is a perfect source to find geometry formulas. It was very useful when I forgot a page of notes with many formulas I needed. This website is very straight forward and has great visuals that helped me understand the math concept. It is very reliable seeing as my answers matched up with the ones on the key, and for that reason I would definitely recommend it. All of the formulas are on the same page, making it very helpful and efficient to do my review worksheets.

Work with Nature. "How to Make a Geodesic Dome / Geo Dome / Bio Dome." YouTube. YouTube, 07 Aug. 2012. Web. 09 Oct. 2013. . This is a Youtube video sponsored by Work with Nature where a man shows on camera, step by step, his building geodesic domes (including his calculations and math). He made this video to help other people who are eager in building domes and to tell people about his business of selling these domes to people who don't want the excitement of building their own. The video uses metal piping and it covers cutting the metal, drilling holes, pressing it, attaching them, the math, the construction, what materials to use, and how to cover the dome. This video will be the most helpful tool I will use during my ILO, because as of October 7th, I have decided to use metal piping for a greenhouse and this video is the perfect step-by-step visual instructor. I will basically follow these steps exactly with maybe some background research and experiments from other websites. I have spent a lot of time on YouTube looking for other videos of this caliber, but this one is by far the best. I've read the reviews and comments for this video and it looks like other people have successfully made domes using this video. This video has already proven a huge help to me. Through this video I have made decisions like what materials to use, how to attach them, and how to do the math that is necessary in making a dome. This source is easy to use, and when you miss a step it is easy to go back and watch it until you have it down perfectly. This video has made me much more confident going ahead with my project now that I have such an easy, usable model to go off of. I highly recommend using this source if you need to make a geodesic dome.

This book has helped me get prepared to take the SATs this spring. The math sections have given me an idea of what the actual test will look like.

Algebra Lab is a website that takes you step by step on how to complete any Algebra equations. It is very helpful for anyone who is having trouble with math. I used it for learning about angular velocity.

Khan Academy where college professors upload videos on what lessons they teach in class. Anyone can access these lessons, and learn about the different subject matters. It has videos on math, English, science, and history.

This site was especially helpful for me to research information that I needed for a presentation I was doing in Global Studies. I found that Fact Monster was a very reliable source, with a lot information. The information was as useful as facts about countries, to formulas and strategies for math. It is a very simple, helpful site that is easy to navigate.

This is a great site to test your knowlege when preparing for the test. It gives multiple practice questions on any subject. It even gives you suggetions on how to figure out the right answer.

This website explained how to figure out how much to price baked goods. It simplified it to show how the math figured the cost. It's a bit confusing to follow but once you read it a couple times it makes since. Kayla and I will most likely be using this method to price our items for the craft fair.

This site has hundreds of videos on school material. I use this for learning in math outside of school. The videos are great quality; thoughtfully planned and packed with information. Each video gets information across thoroughly by presenting it in an interesting and captivating manner. It is a great tool for both excelling knowledge or just for help. This is a very reliable site, because the information has been tested by the many users, and when I myself researched the topics outside of the site I got similar results to what they were teaching me. I would recommend this to anyone who wants personalized learning in the field of their choosing.

I have been using Khan Academy throughout my AP Calc class. It lets you pick the unit that you might be struggling on, watch videos for clarification, and then do practice problems.
