Scientist Skype
Today we had the awesome opportunity to Skype with a real life oceanographer! Dr. Sancho talked to us all the way from Spain and helped us answer some of our research questions for our ocean floor mapping project. This makes my top ten list for best days in the classroom! Our students did an excellent job with their questions, and we can't thank Dr. Sancho enough for taking time to speak with us!

Break it, Take it, Make it!
We took a look at some erosion in action today with our stream tables. Students were able to identify canyons, deltas, meanders, and plateaus in their models and answered the investigation question, "What effect does water have on land?"
