LIQUID VOLUME RELAY today!

HW: Studying for Wednesday’s test.
Study guide due Wednesday.

Students visited several stations as they practiced measuring liquid volume and using displacement to measure solid volume.

HW: Test Wed. 9/30.  Study guide due Wed. 9/30.
Dress for outdoors Monday!

Students practiced reading graduated cylinders and measuring liquid volume.

HW: Test Wed. 9/30.  Study guide due Wed. 9/30.

Students peer-reivsed and peer-edited their paragraphs about the T-illusion experiment.  Then we had a short introduction to measuring liquid volume with a graduated cylinder.

HW: No HW, unless finishing paragraph revisions/edits

Students worked on claim-evidence-reasoning style paragraphs to answer their original question about the T- illusion: “Does [whatever the class changed]  affect how the illusion works?”

HW: Period 1 – rough draft of paragraph due tomorrow
Periods 3, 4, 5 – revised, edited paragraph due tomorrow

Students finished collecting data for the T-illusion experiment. They calculated mean and, in some classes, mode.  Some classes began graphing the data.

HW: No HW

Students created materials for their T-illusion tests, and began collecting data.

HW: No HW

Students explored a T-illusion and the classes began designing experiments to test which feature or features of the illusion is responsible for the effect.

HW: No HW

Students learned a method for converting units in the metric system, and practiced that method.

HW: 20 minutes good effort on the back of “Converting In the Metric System”.

Students practiced measuring length with metric tools, and expressing lengths as non-mixed units.

HW: No HW
