Mr.+Gomez+Grade+8

Welcome to the OSC Grade 8 Science Wiki!

30-08 OK Grade 8. So far we've gotten our hands dirty with some chicken wings, examining how bones and muscles work together. Now we're specifically investigation the human body skeletal structure and how the physics that are inherent in it. For your mechanical advantage of hinge joint lab, use the Criterion E guide to help you finish off your lab. This guide is how you will be assessed.

02-09 Here is the reading on the Muscular System. Make sure to annotate (take notes) on the reading and be prepared to discuss the vocabulary with notes only during our next meeting.

Also, color the coloring charts in your BEST WORK. Your anatomy charts should:
 * 1) clearly delineate muscles from each other. No colors should be "scribbled" or go beyond the confines of the muscle. Take care into identifying the boundaries of each muscle before you color.
 * 2) should follow the color model given as best as possible given your resources at home.
 * 3) represents your own anatomy charts that will be ready to publish in your own Human Anatomy booklet.
 * 4) This is a formative assessment for Criterion B, communication.

06-09 The first Summative Assessment is here! It's time to identify a study you want to do on the muscular system and experiment. The Criteria references and Lab Report Guide are posted below. I recommend not procrastinating, Work now, so this project does not conflict with your math test. Think ATL's you have to MANAGE YOUR TIME this week. Good Luck and come by my room for questions.

09-09 Time to log on to Edmodo.com to our class. Go to edmodo and find group OSC Grade 8 and type in code...
