As we learned about the Scientific Method the student's worked a lab and learned why poor Mike's bad breathe was keeping the girls away at the school dance. Then we did a procedure lab where one group make an object and the next day another group had to make the same object. Students learned the importance of communication in their steps! I posted pictures of this on our Lions Den Facebook Page. You will see the number bags to help know which ones "should" look the same. We also did a couple labs that extracted some copper atoms from pennies and then transferred them to paper clips!

Even though we only had two days this week, it was a great start! We have everything set to dive into our curriculum next week! Science we will start in Module 1 and learn some basics, including some math! The kids are SO excited about that!! (well..maybe not all of them) Good news for those students is that we will be doing a short unit on the Scientific Method first! Expect a quiz at the end of next week on that!
In History we will begin by reviews some of the basic history of North America and its discovery. Then we will start learning more about the original 13 Colonies and what life was like for them. We will have some activities to help learn this and also have lots of notes of things to learn and know for their test. Tests for all my classes are now posted on the homework calendar, so check dates there. |
