This week students will have one class in the computer lab to research their project topic. Students should take time to develop their scientific question, hypothesis and procedure. Students will need to identify their variables. This planning phase should be done by the end of next week (January 23rd).
We will begin to present our projects to the class on February 16th and will have all projects presented before the March break. The school competition will be after March break.
A rubric of how projects will be marked will be posted on the class website before the end of the week. We are waiting for it to be sent from district office.
I am looking forward to seeing all the fabulous projects the students will be developing over the next month.
