Our investigation continues into the question “What are the benefits and risks of building a pipeline through Yosemite Park?” This week, we will review and assess our understanding of the Interactions of Organisms. In Math we will advance our understanding of proportion further by learning to write mathematical equations for proportional relationships. This is still in Unit 2 of Illustrative Math. In addition, students should be working on their Khan Academy Assignments in class, but may be completing them at home as well. Remember that practice can be found on KhanAcademy in the Illustrative Math section!

Wandering Wednesday
Science Block
We will have our first in class debate today! We will walk to the picnic tables outside the Children’s Theater and students will be given time and resources to prepare. (A hint, hunting deer?) Please note that on Wandering Wednesdays, as with every school outing, there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing choices! Unless severe weather is in the area, we will do our excursions, rain or shine.
Thursday
Science Block
Today we will review our learnings about the interaction of organisms and take a mini-assessment. Students with high understanding will have an opportunity for a bonus mini project while any student struggling will have an opportunity for further understanding!
FriYAY!
Students will continue to work on their FriYAY project!
