Solar Eclipse: Can't see the Sun
Lunar Eclipse: Can't see the Moon Here is a guideline schedule for your science fair project: You do not have to follow this, but if you are having troubles knowing how much to do each week, you can break it up like this. (Or you can get it done in a weekend, up to you.)
12/14-12/18 Work on Background research, hypothesis, and materials 12/18-1/4- ENJOY YOUR WINTER BREAK 1/5-10 Work on Procedure and carry out experiment, record your results 1/11-1/17 Analyze results and start working on your board. You can get a free board from me anytime you like. Make sure you keep it organized, neat and easy to read. Also, don't forget you need a table and a graph in your results. (A table is what you record your results in. It only needs the numbers or findings you discovered. The graph is a picture, or visual represntation of the table and results.) 1/18-1/21 Do your final touches to your board, decorate and then, turn in project 1/22 TURN IN SCIENCE FAIR BOARD 1/28 Science Fair at HILL MONDAY, 11/23 SCIENCE Below is a satellite image of Washington (the state) and the Cascade mountains. Notice that on the East side of the mountains, there is a rainforest (green) and on the west side of the mountains, it's mostly grasslands (brown). Why? (This picture also shows the snowfall as it moves across Washington.) OROGRAPHIC EFFECT:
The Orographic Effect animation HOW WIND FORMS: What is Wind? Article Air Pressure and Wind Video and Quiz Everyone should be working on their Science projects at home. They are due when you get back from the Thanksgiving break. You need to be able to explain the difference between climate and weather in the form of a picture book. Below is a picture of the rubric, in case you lost it. For help and examples, be sure to bring your science notebook home so you can reference your notes. Also, check out the links page on the website for helpful videos and links on weather and climate.
Skate board + remote control + carpet frame = cool Aladdin prank in NYC
Aladdin Magic Carpet Prank How it was made Make sure you are studying for your test THIS FRIDAY. It covers all 50 states.
Here's the link to practice: Sheppard Software_ Reflection is when light bounces back. Shiny, smooth and/or bright things reflect the most light. Examples of good reflectors are: mirrors, water, aluminum foil, metal objects, shiny surfaces, smooth surfaces. Refraction is when light bends. When light travels through a different medium, it bends, or slightly changes direction because it travels at different speeds between each medium. Examples of refraction are: rainbows formed from white light hitting water vapor (acting like prisms), hand lenses, glasses, eyeball lens, prisms, curved class (glass bottles), liquid There are concave and convex lenses. A convex lens bulges out. When light enters, it then bend and converges on the other side, then spreading out, causing the image to appear larger. An example of a convex lens is a magnifying glass. Concave lenses are caved in. Light travels through, bending and spreading out instantly, causing images to appear closer up. An example of a concave lens is a peep hole. REFRACTION IN REAL LIFE:
