MS BULLOCK 8 TH GRADE SCIENCE LESSON PLANS
MS. BULLOCK 8 TH GRADE SCIENCE LESSON PLANS Week of December 18 -22 * Lessons Plans are subject to change to teacher’s discretion
Monday, December 18, 2017 ◦ Standard: 8. E. 6 A. 2 Analyze and interpret data from index fossil records and the ordering of rock layers to infer the relative age of rocks and fossils. 8. E. 5 A. 4 Construct explanations for how theory of plate tectonics accounts for (1) the motion of the lithospheric plates, (2) the geologic activities at plate boundaries, and (3) the changes in landform areas over geologic time. ◦ Objective: SWBAT construct a model to demonstrate their understanding of dating fossils, and theory of plate tectonics. ◦ Classwork: ◦ Turn in 2 nd Nine Weeks Exam Results Sheet ◦ Test Corrections due today. No exceptions ( by email, GC, REMIND, or in class on paer) ◦ Performance Tasks 2 -3 Project ◦ Pass Back Papers ◦ Homework: ◦ Performance Task 2 -3 Project due Tuesday, December 19; I will give you the first 20 minutes of class tomorrow to finish this assignment

Thursday, December 21, 2017 ◦ Standard: 8. E. 5 A. 4 Construct explanations for how theory of plate tectonics accounts for (1) the motion of the lithospheric plates, (2) the geologic activities at plate boundaries, and (3) the changes in landform areas over geologic time. ◦ Objective: SWBAT understand theory of plate tectonics and how continental drift and sea floor spreading connect to theory. ◦ Classwork: ◦ Bill Nye Video: Plate Tectonics ◦ Homework: ◦ N/A
