Week 27 (03/09/20-03/13/20) We will read about a Maglev train. We will test our floating "car" for a designs. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Old posts: Week 26 (03/02/20-03/06/20) We will learn about a Maglev train. We will design a floating "car" for a design challenge. Week 25 (02/24/20-02/28/20) We will learn about a "floating train" We will begin a design challenge. Week 24 (02/17/20-02/21/20) We will learn about a "floating train" We will begin a design challenge. Week 23 (02/10/20-02/14/20) We will complete several investigations involving magnets. We will read about magnets. We will learn about a "floating train" Week 22 (02/03/20-02/07/20) We will complete several investigations involving magnets. We will read about magnets. We will learn about a "cow magnets" Week 21 (01/27/20-01/31/20) We will complete several investigations involving magnets. We will read about magnets. Week 20 (01/20/20-01/24/20) We will investigate static electricity and magnetic forces. Week 19 (01/13/20-01/20/20) We will investigate static electricity and magnetic forces.
Week 18 (01/06/20-01/10/20) We will investigate static electricity and magnetic forces. Week 17 (12/30/19-01/03/20) We will Continue to describe patterns in motion. Week 15 (12/09/19-12/13/19) We will describe patterns in motion by completing investigations and recording evidence. Week 14 (12/02/19-12/06/19) Will will test two claims: *If you apply more force to an object it will go farther. (True) *If an object has less mass, a greater force will need to be applied to move that object. (False) Week 13 (11/25/19-11/29/19) Will will test two claims: *If you apply more force to an object it will go farther. (True) *If an object has less mass, a greater force will need to be applied to move that object. (False)
Week 12 (11/18/19-11/22/19) Will will discuss...
An object at rest will stay at rest because the forces acting upon it are balanced.
An object in motion is in motion because it has unequal forces acting up it.
An object in motion will remain in motion until an external force is applied to it.
Each force acts on one particular object and has both strength and a direction.
Week 11 (11/11/19-11/15/19) We will discuss how force changes speed and motion. Week 10 (11/04/19-11/08/19) We will discuss: *Force, Motion, Friction, and Acceleration using a simulator. Week 9 (10/28/19-11/01/19) We will discuss how:
Balanced and unbalanced forces using a simulator.
Gravity is a force (a pull).
Week 8 (10/21/19-10/25/19) We will discuss how:
An object at rest will stay at rest because the forces acting upon it are balanced.
An object in motion is in motion because it has unequal forces acting up it.
An object in motion will remain in motion until an external force is applied to it.
Each force acts on one particular object and has both strength and a direction.
Week 7 (10/14/19-10/18/19) We will use online weather tools to collect weather data. We will read and sequence information about the water cycle. We will draw conclusions about the water cycle by comparing the diagrams we have recorded in our notebook over several weeks. Week 6 (10/07/19-10/11/19) We will record our observations about the water cycle by drawing and labeling diagrams. We will use online weather tools to collect weather data. We will read and sequence information about the water cycle.
Week 5 (9/30/19-10/04/19) We will learn about the water cycle by building a model. We will record our observations about the water cycle by drawing and labeling diagrams. We will use online weather tools to collect weather data.
Week 4 (9/23/19-9/27/19) We will learn about the water cycle by building a model. We will record our observations about the water cycle by drawing and labeling diagrams. We will use online weather tools to collect weather data. Riddle: I am an odd number. Take away one LETTER and I become EVEN. What number am I? (record your answer in your agenda) Week 3 (9/16/19-9/20/19) We will identify and describe different types of weather. We will use tools (wind socks, thermometers, compass, rain gauge) to collect weather data.
Week 2 (9/9/19-9/13/19) This week we will discuss the role of a scientist and the tools they use. We will discuss.... What is weather? What is a meteorologist? What kinds of tools does a meteorologist use? Week 1: 9/3/19-9/76/19 Our first science unit will be during the second week of school.
