September 9, 2011 Agenda Turn In: Signed Safety Contract • Safety Quiz • Review & Correct Quiz Due 9/13: Textbook Information Sheet Reminder: Seating chart set up & textbooks needed next week.
September 12, 2011 • Turn In: • Safety Test Re-take w/ first test stapled behind re-take. • Place your textbook information sheets on the funky colored towel. • Engage: Who Did It? Pgs. 8-10 • Process & Procedure #1-7 • Reflect & Connect #1-4
September 13/14, 2011 Write in your planners: • Review Reflect & Connect #1-4 • Group Scientific Process Worksheet • Otzi the Iceman detective story • Evidence vs. Inference • Process & Procedure #4 pg. 13
Grading Rubric Possible scores: 0-5 ENGAGE vs. other Es: The Engage has NO right or wrong answer. Therefore it will be graded slightly differently than other sections of the chapter.
R&C #1 – What grade? I made some observations and read some evidence reports. Then I knew that the store owner stole the TV.
R&C #1 – What grade? To solve the mystery, I looked at the crime scene, read evidence reports, and made a prediction about who had stolen the TV.
R&C #1 – What grade?? To try and solve the mystery, I took a look at the crime scene and wrote down my observations. I discussed my observations with my teammates and recorded anything they saw that I didn’t. When I received the evidence reports, I compared them against my evidence and narrowed down my ideas. I thought I had solved the mystery when my observations and the evidence pointed toward the same theory.
R&C #3 – What grade? My explanation in Step 2 is different from my explanation in Step 6 because in Step 6 I had more evidence than in Step 2.
September 13/14, 2011 Explore: What Do You Know For Sure? Pg. 13 Learning Target • I can explain and define evidence and inference. • I can begin to apply the different parts of the process of scientific inquiry. Vocabulary • Evidence: Observations YOU can make directly. • Inference: Logical assumptions based on evidence, but which you HAVE NOT directly observed.
September 14/15, 2011 PARTNER QUIZ! • Quiz: Otzi & The process of scientific inquiry (remember the areas of focus?) • Resources: You, your partner, and a pen or a pencil. • Noise Level: Quiet as a church mouse
September 14/15, 2011 In Your Planners: Explore: Mystery Sports Drinks Pgs. 17-27 Part I: Asking a Testable Question Process & Procedure #1-4 Stop & Think #1-3 Homework: Scientific Process Worksheet
September 14/15, 2011 Explore: Mystery Sports Drinks Pgs. 17-27 Part I: Asking a Testable Question Learning Targets • I understand and can apply the four criteria of a testable question. • I can state the best concentration of carbohydrates and electrolytes in a sports drink.
4 Criteria for a Testable Question • The question centers on objects, organisms, and events in the natural world. • The question connects to science concepts rather than opinions, feelings, or beliefs. • The question can be investigated through experiments or observations. • The question leads to gathering evidence and using data to explain how the natural world works.
Homeostasis • Maintaining a condition of balance within your body.
Diuretics • Inhibit the absorption of water. • Eliminates water in the form of urine.
Carbohydrates • Fuel for the body • Come in the form of sugars • Replace calories lost during exercise
Electrolytes • Salts composed of ions • Found in body fluids • Important for bodily functions • Replace salts lost through sweat
Energy Drinks • The best concentration of carbohydrates and electrolytes in a sports drink is 6-8% of its total mass. • The best concentration provides an energy boost and slightly faster fluid absorption.
