Welcome to the first day of Earth Science. Please take time to read the syllabus below. It is important that you return the last page of the syllabus to Ms. Smith by the date on the page.








 * September 7, 2011**

Hello, Earth Science! I am away at the Madera County Fair today. I will be back on Friday. Your task today is to create a keynote presentation. On your slides, you will need to create a collage of pictures, definitions of the term, and have the word on the slide. The collage should look something like the three circles on the back wall. Find pictures that just by looking at them describe each of the words below. No less than five slides, this includes a title slide with your name. You may add a video and audio. Keep your keynotes professional.

Geology Oceanography Meterology Astronomy

You will be asked to present your keynote. During your presentation you will be graded on the content of your slides, how well you teach the class about your pictures and how they match the terms, and on your presentation skills. Folks, this is a great way to learn about Earth Science but also great practice on how to set up a presentation. Good luck!

You will also need to complete the following worksheet. To complete the worksheet, read the powerpoint below.



Here is the link for all the information about your terms.



__**September 9, 2011**__ The daily starter should be completed in a Google Document. I will show the class how to create a document, in case there are students that don't know. Don't forget to title your daily starter correctly. The title could look something like this: Smith, G Daily Starter 9/9 Daily Starter: Fill in the blank: Bio = ology = Geo = Hydro =

What is Earth Science? What are the two types of Geology? What is the difference between a theory and a hypothesis?

__**Sphere Project:**__

In groups of three you will combine your slide or create new slides of the four spheres; geology, meteorology, astronomy and oceanography. You need need to add the definitions somewhere in your slides of the four spheres. You will also need to add audio, music, videos, or any other media sources into your keynote. Get creative! Hint: you can record your voice instead of speaking in front of the class.
