Monday - Finished Part 1 of Steven Hawking's Universe which talked about the evidence for the Big Bang and wrapped up how our theories of the creation of the universe have changed over time because of improvements in technology.
Tuesday - We read the textbook yay!!! Students read a couple pages about the current evidence for the Big Bang, specifically red shifting of stars and galaxies and cosmic microwave background radiation. After reading, they made a "mini-poster" on the back of their paper to illustrate what they learned.
Wednesday - Students attended a presentation by a banker in preparation for reality town which will be held next Tuesday. They learned how to write checks and hopefully learned a lot about credit, debt, and how to handle money.
Thursday - Quiz time again! This quiz will cover red/blue shift, Big Bang, past theories, and technology. Should be fabulous!
Friday - NOOOO SCHOOOOL!!! It's teacher comp day because of student led conferences (Wed & Thurs evenings). Enjoy your day off!
Extra Credit: Post a comment explaining what this picture is all about.

Cosmic Radiation or heat that is everywhere. Theories say it is heat left from the Big Bang.
This picture is cosmic radiation from the "Big Bang". The red signatures mean that those spots have more heat than the dark blue spots.
