6th-grade Science Monday - Semester Break - No School Today Tuesday - I will have a substitute guest teacher again today so that I can finish my training. Students will be working on their energy vocabulary if they are not finished yet and/or their friction reading. Those who finish the friction reading will move on to the forces and motion Quizizz. For robotics, teams still working on the How Fast assignment will work on that and teams that have begun the Nature's Fury challenge will work on that. Wednesday - I will be back today and we will be working on the same assignments as yesterday. This is the last chance students will have to finish the How Fast assignment. Thursday - Starting today, Thursday, we will switch to our new 2nd semester classes. All students will have the same Science, ELA/SS, and Math courses in addition to the same Music, Art, Library, Resource Room, and PE courses as before only they will grouped into different classes than the first semester. Because in all three of my classes students will have different teams, we will determine whether we can finish the Nature's Fury challenge. Teams who did not complete the How Fast challenge will not be able to complete that one. We will also begin character trait lessons to help students make better decisions in school to make our classes and campus safe, happy, and fun. These lessons might start next week if we are not ready by today, Thursday. Friday - Same as yesterday. The concepts kids are learning in the energy Quizizz are as follows: energy  potential energy kinetic energy light energy thermal energy elastic energy stored chemical energy nuclear energy wind energy solar energy hydroelectric energy electrical energy velocity acceleration force Newton's First Law of Motion Newton's Third Law of Motion
