Welcome Back!

I hope you had a restful and memorable break and are looking forward to the upcoming Spring and warmer weather as we transition from February to March. I am looking forward to the roller-skating party in Lincoln Park this Tuesday, from 6-8 pm. I hope to see you there.

This week in science:

We will design an energy-efficient home that minimizes thermal energy loss as we relate this to helping the penguins living in the southern hemisphere.
- Students will be building some of the materials at home then test them in class; they will also be given time in class to revise and re-test.
- Some of the material students might be in need of : Insulator/Conducting materials (students bring in these items): thin wood, cardboard, styrofoam, plastic wrap, aluminum foil (abundant amount available in the classroom) .
- Per group…students might need to bring hot glue guns, hot glue gun glue sticks
- Possible additions: saran wrap for windows
We will relate what we discovered from our mini thermal energy labs we have completed in the past few weeks.
I will also review the 3 methods of thermal energy transfer (radiation, conduction, convection) as I post the lecture powerpoint on Google Classroom.
In honor of African American History month I will be introducing a fun project for students to research a scientist then report their findings in an informational poster, powerpoint, or video. They will be given a week to work on it. Further directions will be posted on Google Classroom {Due on Monday 3/5 for B-Day students , and on Tuesday 3/6 for A-Day students} .

I will be absent this Tuesday due to a scheduled conference. African American project assignment will be posted on Google Classroom for students to work on. In addition to the project, students will also have a formative assignment to work on independently.

Have a great week everyone.

Mrs. Savage 🙂
