Today was the final day of review before tomorrow's exam.
AIM: I will be able to answer 20 questions related to the first 4 AIMS of the year with 100% accuracy.
Standard: 7.W.E.3 Write content based reports that frame a key question and group details and explanations in a logical order.
Do Now:
1) In one word, what was the Big Bang?
2) Name one legacy of the Continental Drift Theory.
3) Name one legacy of the Big Bang.
4) Name one legacy of the evolution of primitive apes to humans.
Lesson Steps:
We completed our Do Now and then went over our crossword puzzle from last night. Then we reviewed our MEAL paragraphs and I reminded students the need to make sure that every piece of analysis explains why the evidence helps answer the question.
We then played a game of Pop-up in which students worked in teams of 4 to answer 20 review questions.
Homework:
Tomorrow is the final exam so study all your notes.
