Students will be given a moon phase calendar in a protective sheet - Monday - November 2nd.
Students bring moon phase calendar everyday to class. Students should try to observe the moon each night.
We will shade the moon phase each day in class for a month. Students should use a pencil. At the end of the project students will be responsible for labeling and writing a paragraph about what they observed as the month went by.
This will give students the opportunity to observe the Lunar cycle about 29 days.

First 9 Weeks Math and Science Project
Project Due: Wednesday, October 21st

Overview
Students will investigate Newton’s three laws of motion using origami frogs. Students will measure and analyze the jumping abilities of origami frogs.

 
Students will:
·         Construct, test, and graphically compare the jumps made by three different sizes of frogs.
·         Predict how far a fourth frog would be expected to jump
·         Identify and test variables that affect frog-jumping ability.
All must be made from the same type of paper.
Small frog – 63 mm wide square
Medium frog – 140 mm wide square
Large frog …
