On Friday students completed the ecology quiz. We then went out to the daycare playground and helped them move and spread mulch. Check out the school website in a few days. A write up and photos will be posted there. Thanks for your hard work everyone! Have a nice weekend.
On Thursday, we took up the questions related to the Suzuki article and reviewed the nitrogen cycle. Students then completed a practice quiz on ecology terms. This is in preparation for Friday's ecology test. Finally, we played a jeopardy review game on ecology topics.
On Wednesday students learned about the nitrogen cycle. They copied a note on this, or they had it printed from the blog...it is posted under class notes. They then completed a diagram on the nitrogen cycle and read a Suzuki article on fertilizers. There were 5 questions related to this article for students to answer for homework.
