Ladies and Gentlemen,
Today, science is going to be a bit different! You are going to use a link right here in our blog to go to the Discovery Education website. I will share my password with you here in class so that you can access the website. Take about 5-10 minutes to look around the section of the website I show you in class. Then, using any resources your team has, please draft a paragraph on paper. Your paragraph will then be posted by your task team as a comment under this post. Make sure to include everyone's name as part of your post.
Each Task Team is going to write a separate paragraph. Here are the assignments:
Task Team 1: States of Matter, Scientific Method and Heat Energy
Task Team 2: States of Matter, Scientific Method and Sound Energy
Task Team 3: States of Matter, Scientific Method and Light Energy
Task Team 4: States of Matter, Scientific Method and Chemical Energy
Task Team 5: States of Matter, Scientific Method and Magnetic Energy
Task Team 6: States of Matter, Scientific Method and Electric Energy
Please use any resource you want. (Would your science folder help with this?)
Your comment is going to be graded and counted as a science test in my gradebook. In order to make sure that I can give a grade for each student, I will post every comment for this activity. You still need to follow the blog rules, but your comment will be posted even if you make a mistake.
Your grade will be based on your ability to demonstrate your learning. Please take your time and do a great job writing about what you have learned. Thanks!
~ Mr. Moore

Dear Mr. Moore,
We learned a lot of stuff about light energy. Light travels through waves called electromagnetic. There are many types light. One of them is called ultraviolet. That is a kind of light that gives people sunburns. You can't see that kind of light. But you can see other kinds of light. The sun is the control of light. People can see the sun's colors by reflecting the light with a prism. Also, when light hits a solar panel, it makes electricity for stuff like T.V, computers, and etc.
Light energy is definitely interesting.

Using a nail, battery. and a wire we can create a magnetic field around the nail. For example, we use a paper clip.The electrical field can pull iron and copper if you had two magnets the north and south sides would connect.But if you put north and north together they will push each other away.By the way, when you are using the nail,battery,and wire the nail will feel warm and will be magnetic. Thats what we did in science.

You can tell if something is hot by using your senses. If it is safe to do so, you can touch the object. Sometimes,all you have to do is look. For example,seeing steam rise from a pot tells you that the water is hot. However,no matter how closely you look or how carefully you touch,you cannot tell exactly how hot something is. On a summer day, it can be much hotter outside than it is inside your house. Hot,cool,cold,and warm doesn't mean very much. Temperature tells how hot or cold something is. You can describe using the words hot and cold/warm and cool.

Have you ever wondered how to seek specific sound.Sound tralels throu sound waves but sound can not travel beyond Earth's atmesphere because there is a vacume in space. Bats use echo to hunt for insects in compete darkness.The louder the sound the stronger the sound waves. Anything you can hear is sound. Sound is a type of energy. Energy is needed to move an object. Guitars and drums produce different kinds of sound. In order to make sound something has to vibrate. When something vibrates it moves back and forth very quickly. sincerely Iratny Arturo Anna Karen.
Dear Task Teams,
Wow, I am impressed, although there are some things I would debate, the information you have shared show you have learned many things about Matter and Energy. Keep thinking and learning. Work hard!

Dear Mr. Moore,
I think this is a great idea.Well I think it was good that you told us about tags and compliments.

Dear Mr. Moore,
We learned some pretty interesting stuff. For instance, we learned that little balls of energy called electrons travel through the wire to the light bulb, or something else, and that energy lights the bulb. Electrons are negatively charged particles that move around or about the nucleus of an atom. In one of our articles, we found out that food has energy in it too! It is called chemical energy. Energy is what makes things move. Did you know that you can see a person move using chemical energy? On the triple e, we found out that electricity flows through circuits. A circuits can't have any gaps or the electrical current won't flow. I also found out that electrons are the part of atoms that make light bulbs glow and magnets stick. Electrons flow through copper wire. They power tour TV, toaster,and hair dryer. This is pretty cool huh? Iron is attracted to magnets and will stick, so will a steel wrench. Electricity can produce heat. In a doorbell electricity currents flow through a wire. The rod is repeatedly attracted to the electromagnet causing it to hit the ball. Wow! This is all the information we could find, but it's still pretty awesome! Sincerely,Task team 6
