8th Grade Science
In our classroom
We have already had a busy start to the year
We have covered some introductory science and now are into our Chemistry unit. We dabbled in the metric system, learned how to make data tables and graphs, and began blogging.
Spaghetti towers
To work together we built spaghetti towers. A time and material crunch activity!
Gemklocx
We practiced writing good procedures with our Gemklocx activity! Another time crunch, but challenging following others' procedures
Mind Maps
We learned about properties and made mind maps. We will learn more about different properties throughout Chemistry
Upcoming
For the next couple of weeks:
- We will be learning about the states of matter (solids, liquids, and gases) and how the molecules behave in each state.
