Mr. Ball had a super fun review game for 7th-grade vocabulary. Students have been studying the prefix Poly-. Definitions were posted around the room, and the teams had to race to match the words to the definitions. We added some space jam music for fun!

6th grade science students learned that:
1. The more mass something has, the greater the force of gravity pulling down on it (which can
be measured as its weight on a scale).
2. Moving air (wind) pushes (exerts a force on) matter in its path.
3. Air moving upward (updrafts) can keep an object suspended or floating in the air when the force from the molecules in that air colliding with that object counterbalances the downward force from gravity. When those forces are no longer balanced, the object that was suspended will start moving upward or downward.
This is all connected to the 6th grade science Weather, Climate, and Water Cycle unit. Students in this lesson were trying to answer “Why don’t water droplets or ice crystals fall from the clouds all the time?”
Mrs. Gallegos and her ELA students set aside 15 minutes today for independent reading. They chose books that they were interested in, read in a comfortable place, and then shared about what they read! This inspired others to read some of the books they were reading!
