Sick but not Out/Or annoying you from home...

OKAY, you may not have to see me but that doesn't mean I can't still challenge you to give your best in this class ;)
I have changed some of the instructions in this post so please read it carefully. I will be communicating with all of through this blog until I am back on campus. That means that you will need to be on your game for following written instructions. If my middle school students can't give me 100% there will be a few unhappy sports players and parents and students when I get back...
So please read carefully and completely.

Here is your assignment:

STEP A

2. Click File, Open, go to Students on SES-3
3. Open Students folder, then Science, then Videos
4. 7th grade: your video is Investigating Bacteria, Plants and Other Organisms
5. 8th grade: your video is Investigating Chemical Reactions
6.
To open the video, right click on the video and choose Open with Windows Media Player
7. Some of you will need to double up to share headphones (sorry)

Here is what you need to do while you watch the video:
1. Take notes. Lots of notes.
2. After each section answer the question on the screen and write a paragraph summary about what you learned in that section.
3. For each section, write down at least 3 questions that you would ask if I was there.
4. Turn in your papers at the end of class.

STEP B
After you have watched the entire film and have taken notes according to the instructions in STEP A then...Create a 10 question quiz based on the film. I am looking for questions that show your understanding of the scientific method. Include an answer key. Do this in WORD and save it in your student folder.

STEP C
