What a crazy week this was! I appologize for not having any updates during this week. Let's catch you up...
We have spent the previous four days learning about the greenhouse effect. Greenhouse gases (like carbon dioxide, methane, & water vapor) trap heat from escaping our atmosphere. As more greenhouse gases are put into our atmosphere from human society, more heat is being trapped and this causes an increase in temperature.
Students have spent time exploring an interactive that teaches them more about the sources of greenhouse gases and the signs (impact) that the greenhouse effect is occuring. Check it out here: http://dsc.discovery.com/convergence/globalwarming/interactive/interactive.html
Tomorrow we are having an assessment on these ideas.
