Permission slips for our field trip are due by April 18. It is our goal to get all permission slips turned in early by this week Friday. If you have not yet seen the salmon colored permission slip, please check in with your student. Thanks to everyone who has turned in the slip already!
This week we are moving on to our weather and climate unit. We'll be starting off by comparing weather and precipitation between different locations - our puzzling question will focus on how the Alaskan villiage that Ms. Pittner spent a year living in actually has warmer winters than here in Wisconsin. Along the way we'll also be thinking about questions like, "Why is my chair sometimes warm when I get to class?" and "Why does a cold drink sweat on a hot day?" The science behind these questions are all central to understanding big weather topics.
Monday - Finish Wisconsin Landscape Presentations/Final Earth History Models
Tuesday - Time to finish Earth History Models/Start Weather Unit (Models due during class)
Wednesday - What's the difference between weather & climate? + severe weather notes
Thursday - Air Investigation Lab (due at end of class)
Friday - Science Forward Exam taken during class
