We had a busy, busy first day of class.  The students learned how to do their E day homework in their EARTH Journal.  They will do the E day assignment for the following words: core, mantle, crust, density and composition.  Each student was given a red folder in which to keep their papers and two composition books (EARTH Journal and LABS).  The LABS composition book will live at the school.  Each student also received a syllabus to read over and have signed by their parents.  Mr. Torsch and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting everyone.  See you tomorrow.

    EQ- how does knowlege of vocabulary help you in MST?

    It will help you to know any important words we might be using during MST.

    it will help you understand words on a test or assignment

    my favorite word was density.
    I think the answer to the essential question is: you need to have vocabulary knowlege so you know mathmatical and scientifical words and phrases.

    scincerly,

    Excellent Question! You will have figured out by the end of the week why it is called the EARTH Journal. Hint: the first letter in E.A.R.T.H. and E and the first assignment is Expand vocabulary.

    I think the answer to the essential question is: If we had no organaztional system we would forget when assinments are due and turn them in late. We also would probably record information in the wrong journals and notebooks.
