Welcome to the last of the e Lessons. You have two weeks to complete the lessons, they do not need to be done all in one day. If the snow disappears, before you complete the science activity, we will find another experiment for you to do. I listed the science first today because it will take awhile for the observations. While you wait, you can do the Reading and Math.
Science
A
scientist does experiments to test out their theories. You are going
to be the scientist today. Your task is to find out which melts faster,
a jar of ice or a jar of snow. You will need to make a prediction
(What you think will happen.), observe the jars at evened time intervals
until one is completely melted, (every 10 minutes, every 15 minutes,
etc.), and record your observations. You should draw a picture of what
the two jars look like and given a brief description of what you see
during the observations. Make sure you include the time of your
observations. Once the ice or snow is completely melted, write a
summary of your results and if you proved your theory to be correct or
incorrect. Also answer why you think the snow or the ice melted first.
Materials Needed:
2 clear jars or glass glasses
ice
snow
plain paper (chart your observations)
coloring pencils or crayons
pencil
something to label the jars
tray - to set the jars on (optional)
Reading
Today you will being doing OAA Test Practice. Choose the reading selection and pick two different reading selections. Take your time and read the selections carefully. Remember to go back in the text to find your answers. You will email the results to your teacher.
amartin@eaton.k12.oh.us
swike@eaton.k12.oh.us
tspurrier@eaton.k12.oh.us
mmahan@eaton.k12.oh.us
twilson@eaton.k12.oh.us
hbube@eaton.k12.oh.us
After you have taken the test, choose a book to listen to. Next you will write a paragraph about the story. Make sure you include the main idea and 4 supporting details. You can also do this on a separate piece of paper. If you choose to write it instead of type it, remember to turn in your work. Find a quiet place and read for your enjoyment for the next 20 to 30 minutes.
Math
Warm up by practicing your facts for 10 minutes. Continue to warm up your brain with Multiplication Grand Prix. Now you are going to take two OAA Practice Test. Make sure you click on math and read the test descriptions. You want to pick something that is a review and not new material. Use the email address for your teacher I have listed under the reading section. Last, you will take a fact quiz. Remember to print out your results to turn in with your other assignments.
I hope you have enjoyed these lessons. Even though this is the last of our official e Lessons, I will continue posting various assignments and activities for you to do. Some of these will be based around my classroom, but are open to anyone that would like to complete them. My blog is open to my students and their friends.
