6th grade Science:

Monday - Students have finished adding their data to our spreadsheet for all three periods to use and we have gone through and removed unreasonable data due to human error or equipment malfunction (outliers).

Now everyone is busy working on learning their water quality jobs using the following websites.

HW - Please get your tree planting field trip permission slip signed and ask your parents if they can join us this Thursday. I need your permission slips returned by Wednesday at the latest (tomorrow is better).

Kids who aren't done with the Salmon Life Cycle Webquest still have to finish this. They can do it at home because it's all available online.

Tuesday - Today I will have a sub so that I can meet with with the other middle and high school Science teacher for our regular work. Jac from NOSC will be coming in to prep 6th graders for the tree planting field trip this Thursday.

Then students will continue working on learning their water quality jobs using the following websites.

HW - If you didn't turn in your tree planting field trip permission slip today, make sure to bring it tomorrow.

Wednesday - Today I will see who still needs to turn in their permission slip so that I can have a count for the busses tomorrow.

Then students will continue working on learning their water quality jobs using the following websites.

HW - If you didn't turn in your tree planting field trip permission slip today, make sure to bring it tomorrow for sure as you will need that slip to be able to go with us.

Thursday - Those who do not have their permission slips today will be calling home to get that signed and turned in.

Only first period will continue working on learning their water quality jobs using the following websites.

Today during 4th, 5th, and 6th periods we will be going on our tree planting field trip to Snow Creek.

HW - None

Friday - Today students will share their tree planting experiences and thank those who made it possible on their blogs. Then all students will continue working on learning their water quality jobs using the following websites.

HW - None

8th grade Science:

Monday - Some still need to finish their ribbon of life (pgs 28 & 29 on the iBooks notebook) activity and submit their responses before we can give each other feedback. Then we will start to learn how cells divide through mitosis.

HW - None

Tuesday - Today I will have a sub so that I can meet with with the other middle and high school Science teachers for our regular work.

Students will complete their how cells divide through mitosis activity to write their mitosis blog. If anyone didn't finish their ribbon of life (pgs 28 & 29 on the iBooks notebook) activity they need to do that today so that we can go over it tomorrow.

HW - None

Wednesday - Today those who are still NOT done with the ribbon of life (pgs 28 & 29 on the iBooks notebook) activity need to finish that. Everyone else will be working on the how cells divide through mitosis activity and the mitosis blog.

HW - None

Thursday - There are still a few who need to finish their ribbon of life (pgs 28 & 29 on the iBooks notebook) activity. Everyone else will be working on the how cells divide through mitosis activity and the mitosis blog.

HW - None

Friday - Today the plan is to go over the ribbon of life answers so that students can provide peer feedback to each other.

Everyone else will be working on the how cells divide through mitosis activity and the mitosis blog. Some will be just beginning working on this while there are some who are almost done if not already done completely.

HW - None
