SPECIALS!!! YAY!!

Art

Title: Story Vase Lesson 1 

A Note from Your Teacher:  

Welcome back, Athlos artists! After reviewing the three expectations of art class, we will dive into our story vase project by reading a short story together about Ancestral Pueblo artists. Afterwards, you will write down a few of your OWN stories, ideas, and feelings. Don’t worry, you don’t have to write the whole story down! Just jot down a word or two so that you can remember your ideas for next week’s class.  

Feel free to pause the video as needed and as always, you are more than welcome to reach out if you have any questions…or just want to say, “hi” J

2. Scientific Method Review 

3. Hypothesis, Independent, and Dependent Variables notes 

4. Hypothesis, Independent and Dependent Variables practice 

 

NOTE!!!!!!!!:

I will be posting the PowerPoint Presentation that goes along with the notes for the day and a guided notes sheet you can print and or copy right into your Science Notebooks. I will post the PowerPoint Presentation AFTER the live Science stream. I have attached the Hypothesis notes document above. This is where you will be taking notes that we go over in class. 

IMPORTANT: if you unmute your mic today on live Zoom calls and you are being distracting to other learning I will be kicking you out of the live stream. So, be smart with your actions. 

I recorded my lesson on the Scientific Method today for you. I worked through the Scientific Method PowerPoint Presentation that you will use to fill out your guided notes sheet. Here is the video:
