Day 08 - Variables

Today in class, we went to the PE at 9:04. We had the bike unit again. During the bike unit we had some of the same activities we did a few days ago. We had the car scan, the rock dodge, the snail race, and the figure eight. In the car scan we ride our bikes and the volunteer calls “SCAN!” and we turn around and say the number she put up. The rock dodge is where there are cones everywhere and you pretend they are rocks and you go through and try not to touch them. The snail race is a race where you try to be the last to the end. The figure eight is a big eight and you ride around in it and stop if the light is red and go if the light is green. Then we came back to class and did our daily math. After that we went over the weekend’s homework. Then we worked on some other questions in our Bits and Pieces book. Next we had break. Everyone always is talking and eating their snack. Then we moved onto science. We worked on different variables. There are changed variables, kept the same variables, and the measured variable. Then it was lunch. After lunch we social studies we did an assessment for social studies it was an open book assessment. Mr. Steele put some questions on the active board and we answered them. There was also a writing part of the assessment we had to write stuff about historians, archeologist, and geographers. After social studies we did rotate. Rotate is when you get put in a group then you get put in a certain rotation after the time of your rotation is up then you get put in another certain subject. The choices in the rotations were finishing up assessments + name art, Reading a story in our Houghton Mifflin books and awhile you are reading it you are completing a paper. The last subject is doing your periodic table of elements. The periodical table of elements is when you get assigned an element like iron, argon or aluminum and many more. The elements you get assigned on is based on your class number if you’re 18 then your argon. Then you have to do a sheet on it. You have to research on the computer about information on your element like the atomic weight. At 3:20 we have jobs that’s when every does their job. Each person is assigned a job and they do it if you don’t do your job good or you just don’t do it the teacher fires you and puts you in a new job. Someone can also outrank you if you are not doing your job they can become that person if they turn in a resime but you can’t take someone’s job if they are doing it perfectly. At 3:25 we p.s.v (pact stack and Vac) That’s when we clean up the floor and then we pack up to go home. Goodbye!
