Description

Standards/Benchmarks:
• SC.912.E.6.1: Describe and differentiate the layers of Earth and the interactions among them.
• SC.912.P.12.4: Describe how the gravitational force between two objects depends on their masses and the distance between them.
Essential Question/s: How is the earth unique among planets, what are it's compositional layers and gravitational force?
Lesson Agenda:
1. FCAT Slam: Hydrosphere
2. Introduction to Cornell Notes
3. Introduction to Earth Uniqueness (the Goldilocks Effect)
4. Cornell Notes, collaboratively with students: Earth Basics & Earth's Interior.
5. Students work in pairs to complete Cornell Notes: Earth as a Magnet & Earth's Gravity
6. Wrap up and complete for homework.
How we will learn it:
• Explicit Instruction: Share the definition of density > Illustrate format and organization of Cornell Notes
• Modeled Instruction: Illustrate format of Cornell Notes on the overhead with the introduction and beginning Earth Basics.
• Guided Practice: Facilitate generation of synonym, antonym and other forms of FCAT Slam > Work collaboratively with students to complete Cornell Notes for Earth Basics & Earth's Interior
• Independent Practice: Students work in pairs, and then complete independently for homework Cornell Notes for Earth as a Magnet & Earth's Gravity
Formative Assessment (How we will know we learned it?): Evaluate progress on Cornell Notes > Collect and grade Cornell Notes
Relevance/Closure (How will we use it?): Wrap up/summarize, complete for homework.
Associated File: cornell-notes-2.1[0].pdf
My Notes: The initial lab took two days as the first fell on a shortened day.
Materials/Resources: Textbook, overhead, paper, pencil, Cornell Notes

NEWS FLASH: I hope everyone is enjoying their well deserved break. Have a great holiday!
