EOU Exam on Thursday, May 1st
Learning Intention
Students will be able to...
create a poster on their assigned material cycle and turn-key the information to the class.
Standard:
HS-LS2-4: Use mathematical representations to support claims for the cycling of matter and flow of energy
Energy and Matter
Energy cannot be created or destroyed—it only moves between one place and another place, between objects and/or fields, or between systems among organisms in an ecosystem.
Success Criteria
I am successful when I can...
1) Describe how matter gets cycled throughout the environment.
2) Apply today's lesson to real world problems.
3) Teach the class about the material cycle I researched.
4) Use teacher feedback to modify your poster.

Activity Four
Active Reading
(5 min)
Directions: Read the article assigned to your table out loud (each person reads a paragraph). Make FIVE (5) annotations about the material cycle as it is read.
