Today we continue looking at fossils. Some students are still working on the "All About Fossils" Road Map.
Most students will be working on the next road map, Time Periods Pre-Dinosaur.
Here is the student showcase video of the day!
All the information you will ever need to survive 7th Grade Science. This is where you will find calendars, extra handouts, assignment due dates, and links to extended information about what we cover in class!

Today we continue looking at fossils. Most students are working on the "All About Fossils" Road Map.Tomorrow we will have the next road map available!
Take a look at this video that one of our groups created to wrap up their challenge project last week! Just don't pay attention to those boys in the background :)

Monday Class
Today in science we did three things:
1. We wrapped up the inquiry game that we did at the end of class last Friday.
2. We had a short time for interested groups to share and demonstrate their "game" with the rest of the class.
3. We had a discussion about the time constraints of the we can change the world challenge. We gave student groups two choices. A: They can stop and create a wrap-up imovie about their topic. B: They can continue to work on it knowing that most of the upcoming work will have to occur out of the classroom.
