Homework

Week 41 ~ June 3 - 7

Raz-kids.com: (Levels T - W) Finish two books and complete the quizzes per week. Read a minimum of two books per week with a score of 90% or better on the quizzes on the first try in order to receive a 10 grade in the Reading homework. If you get less than a 90% on the quiz, you will be graded according to the grade you got on the quiz. I will take higher of the two scores on the quizzes. Please remember: two books "per week" means that students have from Friday afternoon until next Thursday evening to finish the two books and do the quizzes. This is a total of 7 days to complete this assignment. 

.

Monday - Research the ideas you came up with in class and see if they can be made into an experiment. Choose one experiment topic, and bring that to class, written in your ORANGE.

Tuesday -   In your ORANGE.. write up your science project question using: what, when, where, why and how. Then, write your hypothesis after your question. A hypothesis is a simple statement stating an educated “guess” [or prediction] of what you think might be the answer. 

For example, if my question is: "How much weight does it take for something to sink to the bottom in water?"

Then, my hypothesis statement might be: "I predict that objects weighing more than 2 ounces will sink to the bottom when placed in water."

Wednesday - (do #1 and 2)
1.) Start researching experiment models to answer your question. Has it been done before? How? Which experiment model will you use? Your experiment must test your hypothesis, and try to answer your original question. Write down what your experiment will be like in your ORANGE, step-by-step. (if you already did this, then just do Grammar, see below).

2.) Finish ALL pages (up to p. 120) in Spelling and Grammar by this Friday.

Thursday -   Finish ALL pages (up to p. 120) in Spelling and Grammar by tomorrow, Friday. Make a list of all the things you will need for your experiment. Things you have at home, things you will buy. Make sure you get all these things you need over the weekend. We will begin our experiments next week!
