First, the Big Item -
Lab reports on the Marble Wars data are due November 3rd (Red day students), or November 4th (white day students). We will use the same rubric we used for the Rocket Experiments, but in this case it does not have to be a poster. Students will earn demonstrations (stamps) for Lab Reports, Lab Work, and Effective Graphing. (Scientific Inquiry Measurement Topics.)
Homework Change:
We will be pausing in our reading (after reading 3.1) for a while. STUDENTS DO NOT NEED TO READ ADDITIONAL SECTIONS AT THIS TIME. Instead they should work on their lab report a little each night. Remember that if you meet the standard on this lab report you do not have to do it again this year! If you can finish it early, I'm happy to look it over and tell you if anything needs to be fixed.
In Class Work: Students will be continuing to work on their choices from October 24/25 (see that blog entry for more details). While this is going on, we will be holding the Marble Wars Tournament! It is expected you will continue working during the time when your team is not playing.
Extra Help - I will be calling some students for intervention help with the lab report, but if you are struggling, don't hesitate to request to come during intervention period, or drop in before or after school.
