Wednesday

We are ending one unit and starting a new one today. Students joined with their team to answer 25 questions concerning the areas of physical science that we have covered so far. The questions ranged from pH levels, to electricity, heat and magnets. We are continuing to cover atoms in class with our notes.

While the students were working I took one team at a time into the hallway to teach them about calculating average speed. Students predicted how long it would take them to walk, and then run, 20 meters. Then with two team members at the end of the 20 meters timing them, the students first walked and then ran the 20 meters. In class tomorrow we will determine the average.
