Monday, Jan. 14

Hello!!!!

Well, it is the start of the 3rd grading period!  I still cannot believe that we have been through half the year already.  We are still working with solids, liquids, gases and plasma in class.  There will be a quiz on Wednesday over the material they have been given.  I gave them three handouts they are to use to study from.  Today, I gave them song lyrics that went with the lesson, so they can even use those to study from!  They have a few vocabulary terms, as well.  After they quiz, we will be starting a new project.  It will be a different type of project.  For this project, the kids will be given a situation and a question they have to answer.  They will be using the internet to find a solution to that question.  The good part about this project is that there is not just one right answer.  We will be using voice thread for this project.  It is one we have not used yet this year.  The students will find images and then record their information.  It will be played back to the class, so they will not have to be in front of the class for presentations.  I hope they like this tool.  Have a great week and if you have any questions, please email me or give me a call.  Talk to you next week!
