Happy Middle of the Week!
Progress reports went home today. Please let us know if you have any questions.
In reading today, I did a short assessment showing students a picture and asking them to make an inference about the picture. This will help me know how to instruct them based on their responses. Also, we met in groups, responding to reading or read to ourselves.
In science, we discussed Independent and Dependent Variables. This is a difficult concept for some to grasp. We worked on a sheet that gives scenarios where students need to identify these as well as the control or constants. Students need to complete the rest for homework. This is due Friday for both classes. We also began to set up an experiment called The Penny Lab. Students identified the parts of this experiment but didn't have time to carry it out. We will do this tomorrow for 6F and Friday for 6S.
