Well, we have finished our energy unit and are moving on to physical science. The test over energy was yesterday. I still have some students who need to take it because they were out for OMUN or were absent that day. Some students surprised me by doing very well on the test and others by not doing as well as expected. Students should be able to get the tests back on Monday, after everyone has taken it. I have some activities planned for volume, mass, and density. This is what we are looking at first. We are looking inertia, too, today and I am using my rolling chair and putting students in it to show this. It is really funny and the kids get a better understanding of what inertia means. Once we finish with these topics, we will be moving on to physical and chemical properties and changes. It gets really fun in here then!!! I set things on fire and blow things up!!! The students love that! I am hoping to get started on the last project before we leave for spring break. It will be an individual one, so many students will like that. It will not take long to complete and students can pick which computer tool they want to use: wiki, photo story, or voice thread. Well, I guess that is all that is going on right now. I can't believe how fast this year has gone. We are already in our last quarter. Talk to you next week. Have a great weekend!
