6th-grade Science Monday - Garden Today! When not doing garden work, students will continue using Tinkercad to practice creating 3D models.  HW - There is only homework for students who need more time to complete class assignments that were not completed during class time. Here are assignments that are homework for students who have not completed them: Robotics Vocabulary, Energy Vocabulary, Friction, and Forces and Motion assignment. Tuesday to Friday - This week teams will be adapting their robotics challenge to include the physics concepts that we are studying. Teams will be designing robots that can perform an action using the least power possible. Students will also learn how to calculate the potential and kinetic energy of their robots in action.

6th-grade Science Monday - No school today in honor of President's Day. No garden this week. HW - There is only homework for students who need more time to complete class assignments that were not completed during class time. Here are assignments that are homework for students who have not completed them: Robotics Vocabulary, Energy Vocabulary, Friction, and Forces and Motion assignment. Tuesday to Friday - This week we are starting the Potential Energy Design robotics challenge! We will begin by taking the Forces and Motion Pear Deck quiz. Then I will introduce the new challenge. Part of this challenge is the ability to bring in objects in that are NOT included in the EV3 kit. This includes designing 3D objects that we can print right in class. So students will learn how to use Tinkercad to design 3D objects that we can print!

6th-grade Science Monday - Garden Today! In class - we will work on Friction, Forces & Motion, or the discussion forum assignments because Friction is due today! HW - If you have not yet completed your Robotics Vocabulary, Energy Vocabulary, or the Friction assignment, it is still due and needs to be finished at home for homework. Tuesday to Friday - We will continue our physics practice with the Forces & Motion Quizizz assignment as well as the Human Flight and Super Speed discussion forum assignments. Students who finish all of those can begin working on the Newton's Laws of Motion with Football assignments! In addition to the physics practice, the Nature's Fury robotics challenge is due this week! We need to finish it so that we can move on to the Potential Energy robotics challenge that comes next. I have an idea of maybe merge the ideas students are generating in their Nature's Fury challenge with the Potential Energy challenge so that teams can continue working on some of their really good ideas.

6th-grade Science Monday - Garden today!  HW - 6th graders ONLY start completing your Islandwood overnight trip packet. Permission slip and health forms need to be filled out and signed. There is a Medication Authorization form for those who will need to take medication at Islandwood. Please complete the permission slip and health forms and return with your child to your homeroom teacher by February 17.  Discuss with the School Nurse any medications your child may need, have a completed medication authorization form for each medication (requires doctor and guardian signature), and have a week’s supply of those medications in original prescription bottles ready to go with your student. You can reach Nurse Reina at 360-302-5957 or reina_garcia@csd49.org Tuesday to Friday - This week in Science students will be working on their Friction reading assignment and then practice with Forces and Motion on another Quizizz. Students who have not yet completed the Robotics Vocab or the Energy Vocab Quizizz practice can still do so at home for homework for full credit. After the Friction reading and the Forces and Motion Quizizz practice, teams will continue working on the Nature's Fury Robotics challenge. Teams are learning about natural events that become natural disasters. Each team will design a robotic solution to a natural disaster of their choosing and then build and program a prototype with their EV3 robots! Here's a list of the robotics vocabulary. And here's a list of the energy vocabulary and concepts. And here's what kids are learning when they take the Forces and Motion Quizizz:   friction speed velocity acceleration force mass gravity
