2011-2012+Fall+Projects

Background information: Only two students had computers at home that had powerpoint on them. Therefore, all work was done in school. Finally the students were allowed to have a sense of humor to give life to their cells. || || || A.Earthquakes What causes earthquakes?Explain the parts of an earthquake Explain seismic waves How is an earthquake measured? Explain tsunamis Earthquake safety How are earthquakes predicted? B.Volcanoes How do volcanoes form? Where can volcanoes be found? Explain different examples of volcanoes (ex: Mount St.Helen)Explain each type of volcano (cinder cone, shield, composite) Science standards: 2.2a The interior of Earth is hot. Heat flow and movement of material within Earth cause sections of Earth’s crust to move. This may result in earthquakes, volcanic eruption, and the creation of mountains and ocean basins. 2.2b Analysis of earthquake wave data (vibrational disturbances) leads to the conclusion that there are layers within Earth. These layers—the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core—have distinct properties. 2.2c Folded, tilted, faulted, and displaced rock layers suggest past crustal movement. || Additional projects can be viewed at the [] website. || || ||

 * Global Studies || Ms. Mosby || 8 || You will find 8th grade powerpoint presentations. These presentations are on both human and plant cells. One class of students have a INACOL accounts and they are in general education. The second class is a CTT class heavy with special needs. However, only two of the students had ever heard of powerpoint before. Therefore, these presentations are showcasing their ability to use powerpoint, including: creating slides, slide effects, changing fonts, importing graphics and photos from online as well as for some incorporating sounds. The focus of this assignment was for the students to learn how to use powerpoint as a study tool using their own notes for a unit on cells. Their task was to use their notes to create:
 * 10 slides which will be a review of the basic structures, functions and roles of both the human and plant cell. They were given the option of ding just one type of cell or both.
 * Students were to add text, color
 * They were given the option of incorporating sound-importing sound using headphones-recording their own voice and or downloading from the internet.
