6th Grade Science Class

In class on Monday, the students played math basketball using practice OAA questions from 6th Grade Math Show What You Know Flash Cards. On Tuesday, the students return back to Science continuing in the Diversity Of Life Kit Investigation #2 Introduction To The Microscope. The students used rulers to figure the length of the field of view in each objective lens. The students were given mesh and had to figure out the diameter of each square in the mesh. They were also given several pieces of ribbon to look through using the microscopes and defining focal plane. On Wednesday, the students will go to the computer lab and work on myskillstutor.com completing activities in math and science. On Thursday and Friday, we will continue back in science hopefully completing Diversity Of Life Kit Investigation #2 Introduction To The Microscope Unit. There will be no homework this week. Once we get to Investigation # 3 on Microscopic Life, there will be homework on cells and cell organelles.
