New Unit - Geology
Monday - Review test data. Make statements based on the number evidence. We will go over the test question and the students will help me input data and analyze the results of our first exam of the year. Students will write a hypothesis statement about our next exam based on the data from our last exam. I will again introduce the idea of uniformitarianism as well as introduce our next unit on geology.
Tuesday - Shortened classes because of the assemble. Mr. Carpenter and I will be joining classes and having one history class. (I am very excited to be able to teach US History)
Wednesday- Early out short classes - Visual geology introduction. Students will be asked to create a model of tilted layers with a fault on a hill. Homework assignment will be given and is due on Monday.
Thursday - Class will start with a shared powerpoint presentation. This will be the textbook material for the next two weeks. We will start our study of the 7 principles of geological history. This material is located on http://lombardmiddleschoolmrsmoore.weebly.com/. There will be time for questions about the homework assignment in class. Remember homework is due Monday.
No school Friday
MS-ESS1-4.Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence from rock strata for how the geologic time scale is used to organize Earth's 4.6-billion-year-old history.
MS-ESS2-2.Construct an explanation based on evidence for how geoscience processes have changed Earth's surface at varying time and spatial scales.
MS-ESS2-3.Analyze and interpret data on the distribution of fossils and rocks, continental shapes, and seafloor structures to provide evidence of the past plate motions.
