Internet Safety
The students had the opportunity to listen to an officer who works in the Internet Safety task force here in Billings. The officer discussed how we must never give out our personal information in order for us to stay safe. The students and I had a great conversation about the importance of making decisions to keep them safe because not all people make good choices on line.
Persuasive T-Shirt
I have truly enjoyed this project as the student have really shown their creative side. The students were tasked with creating their own company and identify reasons that make their company the best. They then had the opportunity to create a t-shirt that would help persuade someone to purchase their product. We have a group of kiddos who are gifted in persuasion!
Energy Conversion Rotations
We are really enjoying the PLTW energy units. The students had the opportunity today to look at how energy is transferred from one form to another. There were three exploration stations that allowed the students to experience how energy is converted with glow sticks, hand warmers, and generators. I have attached the videos we watched to help us understand the science behind the energy conversion. The code for tonight is for the students to identify one interesting fact they learned during the rotations. I hope you all have a great weekend and I look forward to another great week of learning!
