Today in class we did three main thing: we went outside for a walk, talked about are new project, and went on the net books. Before we went outside though,we talked a little about are next unit in Biology. It is called Issues in Ecology and because we have a new unit he gave us a new packet and homework sheet. After that we started loading the net books and while they were loading we went outside for a walk. What we were suppose to do outside is look for producer organisms and/or consummer organisms and fill out page 14 of are Unit Packet. On that sheet was a chart and a questions section. Although we were filling it out the sheet we didn't have to fill out all of it. I think we are going to go over it during are next class. Some people saw a couple mice while other people just saw plants.
After we got back inside Mr.Peak talked to us about are new project. Originally we were going to do a deer project but we are now doing something different. Are new project is about the BP Oil Spill. What we have to do is find pictures relating someone being affected by the oil spill, and then make a movie out of those pictures. He suggested that if you have a Windows computer you can use Windows Movie Maker.
The last thing we did was we went on the netbooks. After everyone was signed in Mr.Peak showed us the student email, a blogging site, and how to post a blog onto are blogging site. The main reason why we went to the student email was beacuse Mr.Peak sent everyone an email. In that email was a link to a blogging site that we can go on. He also showed us Google Documents. In Google Documents you can send people various documents and they are able to make corrections to the document. The last site we visited was are blogging site for are Biology class. Mr.Peak tried to show us how to post a blog through the website without having to email him but we ran out of time. That is what are class consisted of. Are homework is to read section 3.3 and 3.2 and to pick a role for are project.
