6th grade Science:

Monday - Students will finish storyboarding their websites ideas.
Today teams will get one copy of the Water Quality Website Requirements, the Storyboard Rubric and Scoring page, the Website Rubric and Scoring page, and a copy of this year's results.
Once teams are done they will score their storyboard. Then I will approve them to begin typing the information for their website.
HW - Work on whatever you have missing (from the progress report you got today - I gave everyone ideas for making up work).
Tuesday - Same as Monday, except that I didn't see my 1st and 2nd period classes today due to the 2-hour late start from snow.
HW - None
Wednesday - Teams still have time to finish storyboarding or to work on their typing.
HW - None
Thursday - Same as Wednesday.
HW - None

7th grade Science:

Monday - Today we will begin to study cells with a couple of short videos on the living cell.
HW - Work on whatever you have missing (from the progress report you got today - I gave everyone ideas for making up work).
Tuesday - Today we will finish watching our living cell video.
HW - None
Wednesday - Today we should be starting an osmosis lab with eggs in different liquids.
We got as far as writing our problem, hypothesis and part way through our procedure.
HW - None
Thursday - Today we should be able to finish our procedure and weigh our eggs and measure their volume for our baseline data.
Then we will look at the Cells Alive website to continue learning about cells including the ways cells divide.
If anyone has been absent here is our lab write-up so far:
Per 4
Per 5
HW - None
Friday - Today we will again weigh our eggs and measure their volume to see if our hypotheses were correct and to see how putting the eggs in deionized water and ethyl alcohol affected them.
Then students will complete their data table, graph and conclusion.
If we have time we will look at Cells Alive again.
HW - None
