Nov. 16- 20: Ozone and Carbon Cycle Lab
This week students will be learning about the ozone and about the development of our atmosphere. They will be doing an activity on the computers where they will read about the ozone, then find a connecting article and write summaries about it (they are making an "article chain"). Then they will do a graphing activity that illustrates how the atmosphere has changed over time (from early Earth, to our present conditions). Then, if the lab supplies we've ordered have come in, we will do a lab to review the carbon cycle (what puts carbon into the atmosphere and what takes it out). I'm excited to do a lab with the students - they enjoy getting to DO science. We haven't had many opportunities for labs so far though - hopefully we can make that change.
