Review Day

Students started the day by reading about the Great Ocean Conveyor Belt and how it transfers the water in the ocean all over. Then students observed sand from a couple of places in Hawaii, North Carolina, Massachusetts, and Normandy, France!

Students worked on review sheets to prepare for their test tomorrow. Students also completed several matching activities. There was three way matching which involves correctly matching a word, definition, and picture. Most worked in teams of 2-4, but Gunnar accepted the solo challenge. Students also completed a word puzzle which involved manipulating 16 pieces to match concepts from Oceanography.

In fourth period, students also worked on a silly story about a boy named Crest and the Tsunami brothers that incorporates all the vocabulary words for this unit.

Unit 1 Test is tomorrow.

Computer Lab Etiquette

You are in the computer lab to do work for this class. If you are not doing work, then we will have problems.

Do not pack up early. Work until the bell or until MsJ says.

SAVE OFTEN. And if you save to a key, also save it to your number. If you lose it, you will have to do it again.

If MsJ asks for your attention, stop what you are doing and listen to what she has to say.

You may watch videos about your organism through reliable websites.

You may listen to music through the computer if you have your own headphones. Rule1 MsJ cannot hear it. You get one warning. Rule2 Turn it on and listen – no million clicks and constant changing. Take both ear phones out when MsJ is talking.
