Feb. 8-12: Test & Marine Animal Research

Students took a test this week on water. It covered both freshwater properties and ocean properties (waves, tides, El Nino, etc.). For the last half of the week, students have been making PowerPoint presentations about an ocean animal. They had to give a description, a food chain, the adaptations the animal has to abiotic factors (non-living factors like temperature, water pressure, salinity, etc.), and they had to find 3 interesting facts that no one will already know about the animal. They will be presenting on Tuesday. Unfortunately, many of our mobile lab computers that students have been using and working on are pitifully slow and don't work very well. I will be emailing some of their projects to their personal email accounts so that they can finish their project over the weekend. Please help them email it back to me, or get it onto a flash drive. Thanks!
