September 12, 2016 1. Sharpen Pencil 2. Collect PDN, textbook, clicker 3. Sit in assigned seat 4. Work silently on pdn MUST BE EXTRA QUIET THIS WEEK! Momma mouse will eat her babies if loud or if bothered to much. This means trying to look at them.
6th& 7thGrade SLO Test Teacher will pass out and explain procedure. Students will complete Friday Fold- ables if Finish early. 7thGrade Decomposition 6thGrade Density
7THGrade TEK: 7.5B 7.5 Matter and energy. The student knows that interactions occur between matter and energy. The student is expected to 7.5B demonstrate and explain the cycling of matter within living systems such as in the decay of biomass in a compost bin.
6thGrade Pre-AP TEK:6.6B 6.6 Matter and Energy. The student knows matter has physical properties that can be used for classification. The student is expected to 6.6B calculate density to identify an unknown substance
7thGrade Essential Question Have you ever wondered what happens to the apple core you threw away? Yesterday we learned that the energy in that apple core is never destroyed, so if that is the case where does the energy go? Explain.
6thGrade Pre-AP Essential Question Have you ever noticed how a small plastic ball and a small rubber ball are close to the same size but one is a lot heavier than the other. Why do you think this is? Explain
7thGrade What does it mean to decompose? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRXNo7Ieky8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgzUeGpBeSI
