Thursday

1. I learned that I don't like to present in front of a class of my peers (always seems that I get picked)

2.


3. I have done both of the afternoon experiments in classrooms and they both are very good labs. Too bad they are both 6th grade kits.

Wednesday

1. I learned that sometimes it is easier to go low tech than high tech-- took 2 hrs to get 8 heart rates and 8 respiration rates.

2. I would think for heart rate and respiration, it would be easier to get items like a bloodpressure cuff and or heart monitors from PE dept to do these. Other items like ph probe, you would be better off to use the probe..

3. I learned that for some classroom uses, tech is not always easy... (and I am a former computer teacher)

Tuesday

I don't know the questions for today-- I had to leave at lunch for my son's knee surgery. This morning went well! The math was a little over my head, but with the help of a calculator, I could manage it. We went a little fast on our NaOH drip, so it turned a pink fast. I will get with my partner tomorrow to find out what I missed.

Monday--

1- How to make a temp. probe for my classroom, how to use a TI-84 (never have done much on them).
2- I like most of the stuff we did-- most was over my 7th grade classroom, but I could adapt it.

3- I will use some of the labs we did to build some basic skills (measurement, basic science facts)
