6th grade Science:

Monday - Teams have mostly completed phase 1 of our water quality project (working on completing their job specialty notes using the Cornell Note-Taking Method).

Many teams are done or are working on phase 2. Phase 2 is to begin reading through their notes and write their rough draft webpages, which will be peer edited.

Many of the teams working on phase 2 have also begun phase 3, some are even done with this phase. Phase 3 is to peer edit their rough draft webpage information.

Several teams have begun phase 4 and a few are even done with this phase. Phase 4 is write their second draft webpages by typing their information into Word on their computers.

In Phase 5 teams will create PowerPoint presentations to share what they learned and to share their results and conclusions with their class. I have two teams in 6th period who have begun this phase. The rest of the teams in both 1st and 6th periods will need to finish and present their PowerPoint presentations. Then phase 6 will be to storyboard their websites and phase 7 will be the making of the websites!

Today I will give students time to figure out where they left off and get back on track. I made a sheet for everyone to fill out to keep track of what they'd done (Phases 2, 3, and 4 Update Sheet).

HW - None

Tuesday - Today I will show students some tips and the way I like to see PowerPoints completed. Then I will give them time to plan their PowerPoint presentations.

Monday - Today I have some papers to pass back and I have progress reports for everyone in the 8th grade.

This week teams will work on the Floating Crayons Lab. Teams will use Inquiry Boards, on their own this time, to complete the lab write-up and the experiment.

HW - Take your progress report home, show your parents and bring it back signed for extra credit (I'll return them, just turn them in for credit or it'll become a zero).
