Well, two weeks into the quarter and things are going well.
First things first, I believe that this should the PowerPoint I mentioned earlier. It is an overview of the muscular system that gives the muscle groups we focus on.
The following week has some challenges for students. The science notebooks are in the process of being assessed and next Monday and Tuesday students take their first notebook quiz and start to learn how the skeletal and muscular system interact. Students will be given various scenarios regarding injuries to the bones or joints and will have to determine the best course of action.

2nd Quarter... Human body
Hey there everyone!
The second quarter is all about the human body, genetics, and how science can solve problems. So far we have started off with the muscular system. I used a PowerPoint which I made years ago when I was just learning how fun making a presentation can be. Mr. Manolis is working with me to teach me how to upload them to this blog. We continued with the 20 major bones in the skeletal system. The goal is to teach students how these two systems work together by teaching basic first aid techniques. I really want to take some pictures of what they come up with. No homework as of yet but I have some great reading strategies for stories that will set up students for the CSI heading our way at the end of the quarter.
