Week of February 18, 2019- Science
Students will be using this week to write up, conduct, and analyze their assigned energy experiment. Students will present their Energy Experiments to their classmates on Monday. Students who complete their Energy Experiments before the deadline will be able to complete an extended project in which they create either a robot or chore machine.
Week of February 11, 2019
This week, students will be working individually or in groups on an assigned energy experiment. They will be working towards creating a presentation to present to their classmates regarding their experiment.
