https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CENbNW2byrs Watch and record one your exit ticket the best way for you to remember the main differences between a series and parallel circuit. Link for pendulum analysis practice-classwork 11/29. Set the simulation variables as shown in the front of the room. Practice stopping the pendulum during its swing at the points indicated on the benchmark-see diagram whiteboard in the front of the room. On the back of your exit ticket explain why KE/PE energy transformations in the swing are difficult for you to remember. https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/legacy/pendulum-lab The science benchmark scores are OUTSTANDING! To all 7/1 students, thank you for your investment in your personal education and thank you for using the provided "tools". I will post benchmark scores to powerschools as a "ghost" grade-they can be viewed but will not be entered into your official 2nd quarter grade. This week's lessons will focus on reteaching/reassessing 1st quarter content identified as not mastered by a significant number of 7/1 students. Monday-speed/velocity/acceleration. Tuesday-balanced/unbalanced forces. Wednesday-parallel/series circuit identification and pendulum swing analysis for PE/KE transformations. Thursday-Quiz on commonly missed concepts 1st and 2nd quarter. Please use this teacher created quizlet to review for Thursday quiz. https://quizlet.com/245448052/1st-and-2nd-quarter-concepts-that-need-more-practice-2017-flash-cards/ Science homework due Wednesday 11/29. Use the provided quizlet to practice for Thursday quiz. Take a screen shot of a score 80 or higher to submit to me on or before Wednesday. Science smartblock this week. Monday-open session to work on and complete tornado/hurricane venn diagram. Tuesday-open session to work on and complete tornado/hurricane venn diagram. Wednesday-science priority day, see needed student list. Thursday-science art journal. Friday-track out day activities, no smartblock.

Powerschools has been updated with the predicting weather unit test. I did choose to omit a question because it really needs a graphic for better understanding. The Monday benchmark has the graphic for land and sea breezes.
Please continue to use the 2nd quarter review quizlet posted here: https://quizlet.com/241183223/2nd-quarter-weatheratmosphere-review-flash-cards/ Monday/Tuesday of next week-benchmark and continued work on the tornado and hurricane venn diagram that will a 2nd quarter project grade. Track out week we will be doing lessons that reteach/review core concepts that are weak for almost all 7/1 students from 1st and 2nd quarter. Thursday of track out week all 7/1 students will take a quiz to see if the reteaching/review has improved understanding. I am creating and will post a quizlet that will contain the 11/30 quiz content. Next week there is no assignment homework, but students that are not done with their tornado and hurricane venn diagram should complete it at home and bring it back to school on Tuesday 11/28 completed. All of Tuesday's classtime will be set aside for work on the Venn diagram Comparison chart for tornado and hurricane venn diagram
https://www.diffen.com/difference/Hurricane_vs_Tornado Powerschool was NOT updated over the weekend, but several grades will be added the week of 11/13/2017. This week 7/1 students will take the weather predicting unit test on Thursday. This is a particularly challenging test because it requires students to use/apply all the weather variables we have been studying. I will be using smartblock this week to do in school review for this test. I will work with each class using the following schedule: Monday-7th, Tuesday-3rd, Wednesday-1st, and Thursday-8th. If a student has a conflict they need to see me to make arrangements to attend a different session. This week's homework is: watch and then submit graded quiz for hurricane and tornado brainpops-due Wednesday 11/15. Additionally, use this review quizlet to practice all 2nd quarter material. Once you have used the practice options and can score an 80, take a quizlet created test and screen shot your score to turn by Friday 11/17. https://quizlet.com/241183223/2nd-quarter-weatheratmosphere-review-flash-cards/ This week's classwork will focus on reviewing everything we have been studying. Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday-teacher directed review lessons. Thursday-assessment. Friday-collaborative hurricane/tornado lesson. No student led stations this week. Below are the Wake County learning objectives for 2nd quarter and a selected review video for the content. Students should be using these resources for review/reteaching. 7/1 students will take their science benchmark on Monday 11/20 and Tuesday 11/21. 7.E.1.1 Compare the composition, properties and structure of Earth’s atmosphere to include: mixtures of gases and differences in temperature and pressure within layers properities: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6G94u2w8OoQ 9mins Layers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CibvtVMTA2E 3:17 mins composition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmuLP1jLGSg 22 seconds pollution: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11oawjSncYM 1:28 mins 7.E.1.2 Explain how the cycling of water in and out of the atmosphere and atmospheric conditions relate to the weather patterns on Earth resource: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaDkph9yQBs 5:52 mins 7.E.1.3 Explain the relationship between the movement of air masses, high and low pressure systems, and frontal boundaries of storms resource: air masses: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QGZyfJmQbE 1:16 mins Frontal boundaries: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuyyilOJrb4 1:31 mins Jet stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gd__PiquUoo 1:24 mins 7.E.1.4 Predict weather conditions and patterns based on information obtained from: weather data collected from direct observations and measurement (wind speed and direction, air temperature, humidity and air pressure); weather maps, satellites and radar; cloud shapes and types and associated elevation. Weather equipment: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySSyT44nma4Dopplar radar: Powerschools has been updated-humidity and weather brainpops. Humidity/weather brainpop quiz. Water cycle crossword/kahoot or 3D model classwork grade. Homework this week: complete the air pressure and front practice sheet and the weather equipment sheet started lastweek during stations. Additionally, complete this week’s brainpop on wind. Send the classic/graded quiz to me by Wednesday. Thursday all 7/1 students will be taking their second 2nd quarter interpreting data quiz that will assess each student's ability to use and apply given information on graphs/diagrams/charts. Classwork for the week: Monday-air mass and wind webquest for direct instruction. Tuesday-introduction to weather station models and whole group review of topics to date. Wednesday/Thursday-stations with a new focus on global winds/weather station models. Interpreting data quiz will be worked into station rotation since the week is shorten. Since 2nd quarter covers a significant amount of information on the atmosphere and weather, please continue to use these suggested review resources to support your learning. 7.E.1.1 Compare the composition, properties and structure of Earth’s atmosphere to include: mixtures of gases and differences in temperature and pressure within layers properities: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6G94u2w8OoQ 9mins Layers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CibvtVMTA2E 3:17 mins composition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmuLP1jLGSg 22 seconds pollution: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11oawjSncYM 1:28 mins 7.E.1.2 Explain how the cycling of water in and out of the atmosphere and atmospheric conditions relate to the weather patterns on Earth resource: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaDkph9yQBs 5:52 mins 7.E.1.3 Explain the relationship between the movement of air masses, high and low pressure systems, and frontal boundaries of storms resource: air masses: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QGZyfJmQbE 1:16 mins Frontal boundaries: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuyyilOJrb4 1:31 mins Jet stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gd__PiquUoo 1:24 mins 7.E.1.4 Predict weather conditions and patterns based on information obtained from: weather data collected from direct observations and measurement (wind speed and direction, air temperature, humidity and air pressure); weather maps, satellites and radar; cloud shapes and types and associated elevation.
