Happy Monday to all! Friday, students took NOTES (slides 21-35) on the 2nd part of the Ecosystem Unit. Today, students took their vocab quiz on the first set of words for the Ecosystems unit. They also received the next set of words (see below). These words will be due on Wednesday 3/18/15. We also worked on several different interactive websites today so students could gain a better understanding of how energy flows in ecosystems. The websites we visited are also below. We will finish our last set of notes on Ecosystems tomorrow and spend the rest of the week exploring the cycling of matter.
