Today's Class 8-31-11

Today we reviewed the Unit 2 Vocabulary.  We also looked at a video over scientific method to introduce it.  The students reviewed their table of contents to make sure they were up to date with the teacher's.

Here is the link to the video we watched today: Scientific Method YouTube Song

Today's Class Tuesday 8-30-11

Today we graded the Metric Measurements worksheet and the grades will be entered as soon as possible for that.  We also started on the Unit 2 Vocabulary entering it into our science interactive notebooks (p.12). We did not complete all of the vocabulary, but will finish at the beginning of tomorrows class.

Please start to bring in shoe boxes for a project we will be starting next week.  It is very important those are brought in.

Today's Class Thursday August 25, 2011

Today in class we began a metric measurements foldable and watched a video over lab safety with quite the catchy tune I think.  Here is the link to that video if you want to watch it again: Science Safety Rap Song

Reminder for tomorrow's class

If you haven't done so please turn in your AP Contract, Safety Contract, and Parent letter.  Those are due back no later than Friday.

Wednesday's Class

Today we took notes over the Science Safety Power Point.  We completed it and toured the classroom looking at the different safety equipment that is available.  If you were absent and want to see the notes that we completed today go to the power point link and find the Science Safety Power Point.

Link to School Website where you can download power points.

Mr. Reynolds School Website

Click this link then look on the left hand side.  you will find the area where I will be posting the power points throughout the year for you to download if needed.  The interactive spiral set up power point is named spiral set-up.

What we did in Tuesday's Class

We got started on the interactive spirals today in class.  Glueing in the table of contents and the left and right side instructions.  Tonight I need the class to finish the "All About Me" page of their spirals and finish designing the front cover.
Tomorrow we are going to cover lab safety. So be ready to discuss some safe lab practices you guys remember from 6th grade science.
If you want to download the powerpoint over setting up the interactive spirals I will post it soon.

Tuesday's Class Reminders

Please remember to bring your spirals Tuesday so we can get started in them.  We will also be looking a lab safety tomorrow as well.  

Remember to get your safety contracts signed and the parent letters signed and returned as soon as possible.

I look forward to an outstanding year in my class and hope you enjoy it and learn something.
