Yearly Plan
This is the page where I move the weekly plans after two weeks.
Monday 11/30 Thermometer Calibration in preparation for Boiling Point Investigation
Tuesday 12/1 Dry Ice: Sublimation
Wednesday 12/1 Boiling Point Investigation
Thursday 12/2 Boiling Point Investigation
Friday 12/3 States of Matter Quiz II
Rust Homework due 12/11nailhw.doc
Monday 11/23 Research on Satellites in computer lab
Ice to Vapor Lab printed and turned in
Tuesday 11/24 October Sky
Wed 11/25 October Sky
October Sky is a move about Homer Hickam who grows in a mining town and ends up working for NASA. He is inspired by Sputnik. I use this movie to teach about Sputnik, the space race, and inquiry. Homer Hickam and his friends go through the complete scientific process to build and launch rockets. Kids love this movie and at has become a 7th grade tradition at WMS.
