Monday May 6th

The Plan:

Science:
This week we will be completing a study on paleontologists and the work they are doing at the La Brea Tar Pits. We will be creating a poster and participating in a mock “dig”to discover ancient animals. We will be looking at a quiz over 4.1 on Wednesday May 8th

Homeroom:Nothing

What is Happening:

Monday: We began the day by reviewing the information over fossils that we covered last week. We then dug into the world of paleontology by watching a short video clip on excavating fossils and we began "The Great Fossil Find". Students were allowed to live the life of a paleontologist for a week and finish the front page of their lab experience sheet. We will be working on the back side and outlining how we will create a poster presentation for the experience tomorrow.
