Some Helpful Hints...

As it's Friday, I just want to give you some helpful hints to make your day easier.
**Reminder - your 1st Curious Question is due today!  You can either write it on a post-it or use stixy.

**If you don't know what to include in a section of writing, ask yourself 2 questions.  1) Did I read the rubrics on the 8th science page?  2) Did I look at the example page Bridge created?

** I created a new checklist for you to think BIG picture.  Download it at the 8th science site.

** Remember- you are writing from the perspective of a science actually in the field report your notes back.  So instead of saying "The desert is very hot." write it as though you are explaining it to someone.  "I have never experienced heat like this before."

**For those of you who want to use slide.  First go to slide.com.  You can totally make a slide show without making an account, but it goes a lot faster if you do.  You are more than welcome to use my account - Login: abridge@mid-prairie.k12.ia.us   -- password: abridge.
Once you create your slide show, save it!  Then when it asks how you export it - choose More on the left side - and choose blogger.  Copy the embed code.  Then go to the Widget feature in the wiki.  Choose slideshow and slide.  Then past the code into the box at the bottom of the screen.  Preview it to make sure it looks right.  Then save!

** Finally if you feel far behind - work on it at home this week.  The beauty of this project is that it doesn't matter if  you forgot your notebook at home, everything is online.  So, as long as you can access a computer with internet you can work on it.  Good luck!
