Fifth Graders Science: Vertebrates

Hey there,

Below you will find the presentation we have used to learn a bit about vertebrates and their evolution.

IMPORTANT: after checking, there is something we must correct. Mammals did indeed evolve from reptiles, and not from amphibians as we concluded after looking at the diagram I included in the presentation (which I have deleted).

As usual, it would be a good idea to download it and take a look at it when you sit down to review.

Fifth Graders: Invertebrates

Hey there,

In about 20 minutes we will start with a new section of this Science Unit: invertebrate animals.

We will use a PowerPoint Presentation in which I have included the main characteristics and groups of these animals, as well as some cool pictures. Arthropods follow.

As usual, take a look at it at home and use it to learn and revise. Any questions you know where I am.

Enjoy,

Miss Laura

Sixth Graders: Who dunnit???

Hey there,

So... can you tell a fact from an opinion? Can you tell a fact from someone's side of the story? This is what you will have to do as an Argumentative Writer... and just in case you didn't have time to copy all the facts we spotted today, here is a pic of what we did (just click on the word "Facts"). Evidences follow as well:

Sixth Graders: Unit 1_ Ecology

Hello there,

Next Monday we will finish this unit about Ecology and we will move on to something completely different: our body and the function of interaction.

As a final activity there will be a reading comprehension activity (Mon 17) and a few questions related to the contents we have worked on. Take a look at the file below (maybe you would like to create your own science folder and save all the important documents?).

Welcome to a new School Year!!!

Dear all,

It is time we get this wonderful space working full-time. Some of you already know it, some others don't.

Here you will be able to check important things, such as homework, assignment deadlines, what to review for your tests... I will also upload some of the material we use in class, like presentations and handouts, so you can save in and use them at home. But not only that: there will be some games, videos and other insteresting material for you to learn new things at home.

Feel free to comment and make sure you check it every couple of days. This will only work if we all participate.

Welcome to the machine!

Love,

Miss Laura
