It's Friday! And, it's a VERY happy Fri for me because instantly that the schoolhouse solar daytime is over it way that Thanksgiving Break is here! This is a much needed break, too I'm looking forrard to having an entire calendar week off to lead handgrip of upward on the parts of life that tend to acquire neglected during the schoolhouse year.
Every Friday, I do a quick ship of 5 things I deem shareable but non worthy of an entire ship on their own. Without farther ado, let's acquire to it!
1. In chemistry, nosotros did a density challenge this week. Students had to calculate the maximum sum of sand that could last placed inward a cinema canister then that it nonetheless floated. We tested our canisters today, too every canister floated! I ordered a set of 24 cinema canisters from Amazon (affiliate link) particularly for this lab. The lids were a flake difficult to acquire on/off, but they worked perfectly for this activity.
2. We wrote give thank y'all you notes today afterward our Algebra 1 quiz. Students had to select 1 of the give thank y'all you cards I printed on colored paper, bend it inward half, too write a give thank y'all you banker's complaint to individual at our school. I chose to allow students write letters to teachers, back upward staff, or other students. Some wrote dizzy notes. Others took it seriously. One student's banker's complaint brought her friend to tears during kickoff period. This is the ability of only maxim thanks. Interested inward downloading the give thank y'all you carte templates I created? You tin detect them here.
3. My written report of physics is continuing. I've started creating an interactive notebook of sorts to incorporate my physics notes too worked do problems. There's something most doing my written report inward a notebook that makes my learning experience to a greater extent than real. Since starting to proceed my worked problems inward a notebook, the sum of problems I've been working has been increasing. So, that's a win!
4. Last year, my hubby taught a middle schoolhouse reckoner scientific discipline flat using the code.org curriculum. One of the activities involved having students laid boats from aluminum foil. Students were challenged to create a boat blueprint that would agree the most pennies. We took a trip to the depository fiscal establishment 1 solar daytime too got several dollars worth of pennies. This year, I've been getting my ain mileage out of this bowl of pennies. We did the aluminum foil boat activeness during the kickoff week. Then, nosotros used the pennies to determine how many drops of H2O volition jibe on a human face upward of a penny. Students practiced using the scientific method to brand a hypothesis regarding how unlike liquids would compare to H2O when it comes to drops plumbing equipment on the human face upward of a penny. Finally, nosotros used them late to calculate the density of pre-1982 pennies too post-1982 pennies. Students used these densities to exam their hypothesis regarding the composition of pre-1982 too post-1982 pennies.
5. I got roughly UTA goodies inward the ship this by week. The President of UTA heard that I was a finalist for Oklahoma Teacher of the Year, then he decided to ship me a gift of a UTA Pennant too Scarf. I did my Masters Degree inward Curriculum too Instruction through UTA online. I bring a TU flag inward my classroom from my undergraduate days, then I'm excited to bring something to hang upward inward my room to correspond my fourth dimension inward grad school.
