What’s Happening in Science — 8/25 – 8/29

 

IMG_4869This week in Science we are studying Week 2 Newsletter Properties of Matter. Week 2 and 3 are combined — next week we will learning about Matter Changes. We will have a Daily Work grade on Tuesday, and our Open Newsletter Quiz will be on Friday.

Monday — Introduced new newsletter and our 6 new vocabulary words. We read page 1 of our Newsletter (Properties of Matter and the Biography of Patricia Bath). We highlighted our important information from today. All classes but 6th wrote our conclusions for our Great Banana Experiment.

Tuesday – We will review our vocabulary and learn about the States of Matter — Solid, Liquid, and Gases. Mrs. Goggans will do a neat demonstration, and we will watch a Scholastic Study Jam. We will also read Who Invented the Popsicle from our newsletter. Students will create a Solid, Liquid, and Gases page in their Science Notebook on page 8. They will define each term and draw an example. This will be a daily work grade for the week.

Wednesday – We will review vocabulary and yesterday’s lesson. We will read about Microscopes and Archimedes in our Science Newsletter. Then, we will learn about Physical and Chemical Properties of Matter and create a Notebook page on page 9.

Thursday – We will review vocabulary and any unfinished work. We will complete our Venn Diagram and our crossword puzzle that is in our Science Newsletter.

Friday — We will take our Open Newsletter Science Quiz. Students may work on any unfinished Science work after their Test.
