September 13 - 17 - LOTS of labs this week!

Monday - We took a quiz based on what we have learned so far about science inquiry.  We also reviewed Metrics, and how to convert metrics using the metric staircase.  Many students remembered how to do this :o).

Tuesday - We viewed a brain pop video about metrics, and continued our review of metrics by measuring metric length and mass with our lab groups.

Wednesday - We finished our measurement of length and mass with our lab groups and began measuring liquid volume, again in lab groups.

Thursday - Today we finished the measuring volume of liquids lab.  Those who stayed on task yesterday also got to do a bonus lab...finding what brand of paper towel was the most absorbent. It was fun for me to see the students design this lab!

Friday - We practiced technological design to create labs we will complete on Monday.  Also, completed vocabulary crossword puzzles that will help each student complete teh K-W sheet that is due Tuesday.  Enjoy the weekend!
