This was a very busy day, with all of our work being completed with the new chromebooks that we have in science this year!!  First students need to log on to classroom.google.com with their @isd728.org school email and read the days announcement.  Include in the announcement is a link to a google document that describes in detail how to complete the digestion lab write up in your notebook.  Next, students used socrative.com to take a check in digestive system quiz.  This is an online tool that helps both the students and I learn how much they are learning.  Today the quiz was set up to give students immediate feedback, showing them if they answered correctly, or what the correct answer should have been.  I am working on learning how to make these type of quizzes available for students to practice at any time to help them study from home.  I will let you know as soon as I figure it out!  Last students started their work on the circulatory system by creating vocabulary notecards in their notebook and filling in the definitions using a multimedia resource about the circulatory system at www.studyjams.com.  What a full day.  Below are pictures of the vocabulary cards that students completed!  Thanks to the students who let me take a picture of your work!
