1st Day of the Second Semester

Today we started the second semester by working on identifying our topics for the capstone project.  Here is the 8th period class.
TEACHER OBJECTIVE - Identify who the students are and how I can empower them to find and solve problems.
STUDENT OBJECTIVE - Identify who my classmates are and collaborate with them to identify and solve problems.
Simon Sinek, “Working hard for something we don’t care about is called stress. Working hard for something we love is called passion.”
Be a problem finder and solver!
We used this document to guide our brainstorming process: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QrKpP7MNcJTFQbvlAwLvAVK_lVfPOHBM_voBxks0Z4k/edit?usp=sharing.

We also formed our base groups and found STEAM partners.

The assignment is to complete the exit ticket posted in Google Classroom by the beginning of Friday's class and to complete the capstone project document up to and including row 36 by the end of class on Friday.

1/13/20 Capstone Experiment and Types of Matter

Today we considered the following question as we finalized our capstone experiment design:  “What would someone have to do prove my hypothesis?” We also completed a debate as to whether apple juice and Gatorade our pure substances using kialo-edu.com .  The class concluded that neither are pure substances because they are both made of multiple substances.

2/18/20 Walk This Way - Position vs. Time Graphs

This week we have been working on finishing up our battery-powered vehicle experiment reports.  We also have been making position vs. time graphs from word descriptions and vice versa.   Today, we used a motion detector to create a position vs. time graph of our own motion.

"When a student first approaches a problem, success hinges on his/her ability to maintain an awareness of what decisions he/she is making and why he/she is making them." Sam Rhodes Here is the problem we tackled today: A student leaves the PAC at position -15.2m at 8:27 AM. She enters Senora Olsen's classroom at 8:31 AM at position 32.0 m.  What was her average velocity? UNDERSTAND - Draw a diagram. PLAN - Use an equation (v=change in position/time) or graph (position vs. time). SOLVE - 11.8 m/min REFLECT - Graphs can also be used to solve problems.  Record equations before inserting numbers.  Include units with all numbers.
