- Whole class: TW review classroom protocols. TW review the main components of the Earth's Water Cycle. TW utilize a PowerPoint presentation with key terms and processes.
- Collaborative group: SW work together to complete worksheets related to the Water Cycle.
- Independent: SW continue working on Definitions for the Water Cycle using the U.S.G.S. website. SW continue to utilize the drop-down menu definitions at their own level of comprehension.
- Independent: SW also work on Summit MIT Science Power Focus Areas.
- Have a Amazingly Productive Day of Extending your Learning! I'm glad you're back. Let's Start Working Again!
