Students will be able to:
use the information from virtual activities, textbooks, hands-on activites, and classroom discussions to
-define eclipse.
-determine how eclipses occur.
Students received HL 17 and 18, which can be found at the top of this blog. HL 17 is due tomorrow. HL 18 is due on Wednesday.
Students worked on the GIZMO Eclipses. This will be placed in the interactive notebook with the week's notes.
Students received the differentiated learning activities for this week. This includes the Pearson work, found at myscienceonline.com and the work on Dr. Gayden's Science Zone (drgcdms.podomatic.com). The required assignments are listed below:
Remediation Week of 3/26/12
SC.7.E.6.2 Identify the patterns within the rock cycle and relate them to surface events (weathering and erosion) and subsurface events (plate tectonics and mountain building).
1. Do ALL Pearson assigned activities
2. Also, go to Dr Gayden’s Science Zone (drgcdms.podomatic.com) and do the activity under the first link.
3. Seventh Grade Coach book pages 54-57.
SC.7.E.6.4 Explain and give examples of how physical evidence supports scientific theories that Earth has evolved over geologic time due to natural processes.
1. Do ALL Pearson assigned activities.
2. Also, go to Dr Gayden’s Science Zone (drgcdms.podomatic.com) and do the activity under the second link.
3. Seventh Grade Coach book pages 58-62.
SC.7.E.6.5 Explore the scientific theory of plate tectonics by describing how the movement of Earth’s crustal plates causes both slow and rapid changes in Earth’s surface, including volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and mountain building.
1. Do ALL Pearson assigned activities.
2. Also, go to Dr Gayden’s Science Zone (drgcdms.podomatic.com) and do the activity under the third link.
3. Seventh Grade Coach book pages 44-53.
