Monday

6th grade: We began our experiment today with eggs. Students wrote a hypothesis explaining what they thought would happen to a shell-less egg in corn syrup, one in salt water and one in green water. We will weigh the eggs each day to see what is happening. We discussed the words osmosis, diffusion, equilibrium, active transport and passive transport. Students then worked on their biomes.

Some sixth graders have not turned in their animal reports or posters. Those reports and posters are now only able to earn 60%.

7th grade: As we too have been discussing cells the students went to see the 6th grade experiment on eggs. They also finished their Oompah punnett square. We will check it at the start of class tomorrow.
