Marble Lab Board Meeting

I'm really sick! :( I hope you stay healthy. Please be on your best behavior for the substitute.

Practicing Gratitude: What are you thankful for?
-When we get back from Thanksgiving I'm going to ask you to jot something down and put it in a class 'Gratitude Jar.' Over break think about the things you can give thanks for. 

-New seating chart, reminders about electronics rules, and attendance & tardy incentives when we return

Next, you'll do a Board Meeting for the Marble Lab...
I trust you and know that you'll do a good job doing this Board Meeting without me there!

Complete Discussion Questions after discussion (half sheet printed on front table, may be in Patterns Physics folder or red Teaching Materials folder on my desk.)

Board Meeting Expectations: 
-each group member contributes and gives input
-respectful and active listening to who has the floor
-don't interrupt when others are speaking
-everyone's input is valuable
-clean up after yourself

Each group gets a whiteboard and markers from the front counter

Copy your group's data graph onto whiteboard

Gather for discussion in a big circle. Stand with your group and hold your board so everyone can easily see it. This is how we're going to do it in the future instead of all crowding around the front board.

After every group has presented, sub will lead you through each discussion question to talk about out loud. Volunteers will read group answers.

When finished, glue half sheet into your notebooks on the right hand side and do left side color processing. 

Any remaining time when everyone is finished, watch NOVA Video: Can I Eat That? 


HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
