Hi folks,
I have added the last of the due dates for science and English to the class calendar. In Science, the kids are creating 3-D models of small areas of land, which must contain certain water and earth features, and have an attached legend naming the element and describing how it was formed/what it is. We will present these projects on Monday May 30 and Tuesday May 31. All students have now started their models, and will work on them in class every day this coming week; however, it may be necessary to finish up at home. This is a group project, and the students picked their own groups, knowing they would share a final mark for it. For the rest of that week and the following Monday, we will be using the models in class to explore human interaction with the earth and water systems. The last two days of class will be devoted to studying and creating "cheat sheets" for the final exam the following week.
Cheat sheets: for Science, each student is permitted to make up and use one HAND WRITTEN, single-sided 8.5"x11" piece of paper with important facts and concepts written on it. These may be brought into the science exam; however, photocopies and sharing will not be permitted, even if someone has forgotten their own page on the day of the exam. I will collect these pages with the exam. Below is an outline of topics students can expect to see on the final.
