WA: Physical Science, September 9 & 11

Last week, the Physical Science class completed several introductory activities designed to introduce students to an inquiry-based approach.  The three girls worked on a textbook tour, an inquiry block activity, and the "Checks" activity.

This week, the students are going to be introduced to the Claim-Evidence-Reasoning model or CER.  Additionally, the girls will create concept maps and annotate a periodic table.  My goal this week is to become better acquainted with the three girls to judge the pacing for the class.  My objective is to offer a robust course without overwhelming them.
