SAGE Testing

Friday 4/29

Journal:


  1. Differentiate between living, nonliving, and once-living things.
  2. What characteristics would you use to “classify” your mom?

Today we used the leaf or pine needles you identified to make a Mother's Day card. Here is the template we used:



It will count on your grade for points, so come see me if you missed class so I can give you the materials you'll need.

Thursday 4/28

Journal:

1. Write the levels of classification in Linnaeus's system from broadest to narrowest from memory as well as you can.
2. Think of 5 animals you'd like to know more about.

Today we used the computers to identify a leaf or pine needles you brought in for homework. Find an online tree identification to identify one leaf or pine needles. We used www.arborday.org/trees but there are several. You'll need  the correct identification for class tomorrow.

Then we did an assignment learning about the classification of some members of the animal kingdom. Here is the worksheet. We used the internet to find the classification but you could also use an encyclopedia.

HW:  bring your leaf or pine needles correctly identified to class tomorrow.
