Follow Up Assignment for Science Project

As you know we are finishing most of the science project presentations this week. It's time to reflect on how projects can help you learn and grow as a learner.

Your assignment is to write a 5 paragraph essay for the following question: How did you grow as a learner by doing your science project? You may have more than 5 paragraphs if you want. At least one paragraph should incorporate the feedback you received from your peers. The FCAT Writing Rubric will be used to grade your essay. Be sure to either handwrite your essay neatly or you may type it. This essay will count as one test grade. Use guidelines and everything your Language Arts teacher has taught you to do a great job.


If you type it you should follow these directions.

• 12 font

• Tahoma, Arial, or Times New Roman only

• Double spaced

• One inch margins

Student grade recovery increases; Duval teachers question its message | Jacksonville.com Mobile Edition

I'm glad we have grade recovery, I just don't want my students to need it. I make success available for all students. Tutoring resumes on January 10, 2012.  It's from 7:20 - 7:40 or ask me questions about topics on Thursday mornings before school when I am in the gym.

Dec. 12 - 16: Test and Science Project Presentations

These are the benchmarks that we have been working on in class for this unit. 

SC.6.E.6.1 Describe and give examples of ways in which

Earth's surface is built up and torn down by physical and

chemical weathering, erosion, and deposition.

SC.6.E.6.2 Recognize that there are a variety of different

landforms on Earth's surface such as coastlines, dunes,

rivers, mountains, glaciers, deltas, and lakes and relate these

landforms as they apply to Florida.

Review Chapter 6 and 7. Make sure you know the difference between erosion and weathering? Know deposition. Know the different ways landforms have been made in Florida. 

Test on Tuesday for A Day and Wednesday for B day. Presentations each day next week. We will begin the unit on cells next year;)
