Science
Today in science, we took a vocabulary quiz. This was an announced quiz, and I have warned students several days in advance. We also placed our eggs into vinegar to soak for a few days and did our data chart. Borrow a copy from someone in your assigned group for your egg’s measurements.
Homework: Pg. 68, do the last 4 short answer questions on this page. They are in the lower right hand column.
We completed the first stage of the “Eggsperiment” lab. I placed students into groups and they completed the inital measurements and observations of their eggs.
If you were absent today, see me early Wednesday morning to make up your quiz. You may come to my room between 7:35 and 7:45. For the lab, get with your assigned group to get your data for day one.
ELA
Today in ELA, we watched a video about the Transcontinental Railroad. We took notes over it as research for our DAR essay contest.
We discussed “The Bracelet” questions.
As usual, we went over DGP. We also graded the daily language practice for Monday and Tuesday.
Homework: Please be working on your DAR research AND doing your reading. Remember, only read on the days you eat!
