Marvelous Monday!
What a great start to another week at Tucker Beach!
Tonight Third and Fourth Grade Students both have their Brainiac to work on and they received their first take home Science Project of the Week, or SPOW. These will be coming home every other week and will get students engaged in the Scientific Process. Students completed one in class, so they SHOULD be familiar with the process and what is expected. This weeks, actually two weeks, SPOW, called Citrus Sections, is due on October 2. We will do the partner/class graphing in class on October 2 when everyone turns theirs in.
Volunteer Opportunities:
I have some laminating that is available for at home hours.
Also, we have a field trip for the Fourth Grade coming up on October 4 to This Is The Place in Salt Lake City.
Have a great evening!!

Hi! We’ve got some questions on the SPOW. #1 says to have the teacher initial the predictions. Do the kids just come to you with their papers to have signed? Do they need to write out the definition of ‘predict’ somewhere when they look it up? When does the student get all of their classmates’ data tO finish the graphing? Thanks for taking the time to answer our questions.
They just bring their paper to get it initialed with their predictions already written on their paper. When they write out their report, the definition of predict is written on it. And then the classmates data will be done in class the day it is due.
Thanks for the questions!
Got the part about the students graphing the class results in class. But if you can answer the other one’s we’d appreciate it.
Hope the answers help! Let me know!
I liked today because math and reading
Two of my favorite subjects too!
