Here is an interactive website where you can further explore forces on your own. It is the PhET website that we used earlier in the year. Here is another website where you can explore centrifugal force and gravity from Wonderopolis. (Disclaimer: This assignment is for review. It is optional and will not be graded.) I miss you all so much! While I am enjoying time at home with my family, this is very stressful and I can’t help but wonder how everyone is doing and if you are safe and healthy.
My new normal for the time being is to work on homeschooling my 3 children, keep up with online work and assignments, and to keep a regular schedule going for our household. The schedule is keeping us sane and it includes lots of outside time for me and the kids. Every couple of days, I am going to post a couple of lessons for review and exploration of previous topics. If you have any questions at all, please email me! [email protected] I will respond daily. If you have not yet taken this teacher survey for Mrs. Barlow, please follow this link and take it. Most students will take it after their cells test. Thanks!
teacher survey Class this week: Students have a review sheet / study guide for their cells test. The cells test has been moved to Thursday, 3/12. We will finish with cells this week and start our study of protists - living microscopic organisms that are often found in pond water. We have to learn 4 specific protists: Euglena, Volvox, Amoeba, and Paramecium.

The NC Museum of Natural Sciences in downtown Raleigh, NC is currently accepting applications for our 2020 Girls in Science: Future Focus program. This program will meet weekly from January-March and is open to current 6th and 7th grade girls. Each week for ten weeks, participants will come to the Museum to meet a different woman in science, hear her story and engage in fun hands-on activities and exciting behind-the-scenes experiences related to her field of work. Scholarships are available! Online applications include a student form, parent form and two recommendations. The deadline is fast approaching – applications are due November 22nd by 5 p.m. More information and application links can be found here: https://naturalsciences.org/learn/girls-in-science-future-focus Please help us spread the word to Triangle families, school faculty, homeschool groups and others who may be interested in this opportunity! If you are a woman in science or know someone who would be interested in joining us as a guest presenter for one of our meetings, please contact Erin Apple at [email protected]. |
