Just a reminder that River Kids will be having their first major quiz and a trip to the river on Friday, October 21st. Please make sure that your child has his or her lunch, water, gloves, and boots for Target and is dressed for the weather. We will be going to the river rain, shine, or snow, with only thunderstorms preventing our adventure. We will leave school around 10:30 a.m and will return at 2:00 p.m.; if you are a river mom, please meet us at the professional development room at 10:30.
I have posted a quiz study guide below.
Quiz Study Guide
- Know all of your River Kid vocabulary- study the crossword puzzle you were given for homework. There are a lot of vocabulary fill in the blank questions and no word bank will be provided.
- Make sure that you can draw and label the water molecule. This includes the atoms that comprise the molecule, protons, neutrons, electrons -and the way they are shared between the atoms.
- Be able to draw and label a picture of the water cycle. You should label at least six of the processes involved in the cycle- study "The Hydrological Cycle" paragraph you wrote.
- Make sure you understand why the temperature of the water is important, what it can influence, and what happens when an organism lives outside of its optimal temparature for a long time. Look over the temperature information you were given in class today (Friday, October 14th).
