We ended last week with some cross curriculum graphing. In science we constructed a line graph showing how various substances such as vinegar, water, sugar, and salt affect the circumference of our egg. This was a nice lead-in to the Section 4 reading assignment(pages 40-44) entitled The Cell in Its Environment assigned Mon. night.
Tuesday we'll do some class activities with diffusion, osmosis, and engulfing. Their assignment will be to finish the last of the key terms of Chapt. 1 ( Section 4) and answer the Section 4 Review on page 44.
Wednesday and Thurs. will be spent in Reviewing on page 46 and 47. A test review packet will be given out Thurs.and we will be doing the majority of the review in class on Fri..
I am rotating my classes outside during the longer lunch period on leaf walks. Our leaf albums are beginning to take shape! In keyboarding, students will be using word art to title their pages.
Their first Chapter Test will be Thurs., Oct. 15th. (Please note there will be no school on Mon. and Tues. of that week.)
