Ecosystems Tests and current work

Greetings families!

We have started the second quarter. Wow--time does fly!

Students all received their graded tests this week. If they didn't share with you, please ask them about energy flow in ecosystems.

Currently, we are wrapping up a 2 week investigation. Student groups choose their own investigation questions, designed tests, revised as necessary and collected data.

They have created graphs to share their findings and are also using qualitative data to support claims.

They are compiling slides to share findings and integrate outside research.

Ask them to show you their slides and explain their amazing experiments. Sometimes, the "accidents" led to new understandings too!


Here are just a few pictures to share from their work:
