Electricity Adds up

Electricity can be used every day. Some animals use electricity. Sharks use electricity to communicate through the water. They do that by sending electrical signals. Your body is a busy living factory powered by electricity. Batteries are sources of electric current. You could try your best to avoid electricity but it won’t happen.

Thesis Statements????

The kids are working on collecting their research on a variety of energy sources.  They will ultimately have to choose one source of energy that they believe is the most effective for running their amusement park ride.  Our writing unit focuses on writing the argument for the energy source based on the research that was done.  A thesis statement is a critical part of our writing.  Here is the best definition of a thesis statement. It does come from UNC at Chapel Hill.  The kids were impressed by that.  🙂

What is a thesis statement?

A thesis statement:

  • tells the reader how you will interpret the significance of the subject matter under discussion.
  • is a road map for the paper; in other words, it tells the reader what to expect from the rest of the paper.
  • directly answers the question asked of you.
  • makes a claim that others might dispute.
  • is usually a single sentence somewhere in your first paragraph that presents your argument to the reader.  The rest of the paper, the body of the essay, gathers and organizes evidence that will persuade the reader of the logic of your interpretation.

The Need for Speed

We have been working on our 1st Quarter inquiry project involving amusement park rides. We calculated the speed of tennis balls, marbles, and ourselves. The students rotated through 4 stations and recorded the time each event took to complete and the distance that was covered during that time. We plugged our data into the formula Speed=Distance/Time

 

We used a website to convert our speed from feet per second to miles per hour.
