January 29 Journal

I am glad you are here. This weekend you should have worked on your pretest. If for some reason your pretest is not done, you have today to complete it or it will go into the grade book as incomplete. If you haven't turned in your student information slip- do so now.
When you are done with your journal today you have two options: one- go and work in Study Island. Remember we are racing around the classroom and as of 8:23 this morning the 8th graders are in the lead; two- work in My Access and finish your pretest.
At our next class meeting, we will be starting the research paper (bring note cards).
  1. You've just spotted a wise old owl sitting in a tree. If the owl could talk, what three things do you think it would say to you?

  2. How are a bicycle, a car, and a scooter alike? Different?

  5. A bicycle, car, and scooter are alike because at one time, someone will want one. When you're small and cannot ride a bike, you might want a scooter; once you know how to ride a bicycle, you'll want to have your own bike; and after you learn how to drive, you'll want or need a car. They all are modes of transportation. They are different because you want them when you are different ages. Bicycles, scooters, and cars all work differently; cars use motors, bikes use chains and pedals, and scooters use your feet.

  18. A bicycle, a car, and a scooter are alike and different in many ways. They are all alike because they are all a mode of transportation, they also have wheels. If for some reason the wheels start to not work then you can just change the wheels and everything is better again. There are differences between all of these things as well. For example some things are that they all go at different speeds. Another thing that makes them different is that they each have different amounts of wheels, the bicycle has 2-4 wheels the scooter has 2 and a car has 4.
