Begin Unit 2: 'Understanding the Environment' (reading & guided notes)

Grades from interactive notebook and tests are in Synergy (You'll get Unit 1 tests back once everyone has taken the test)

Makeup and retakes on tests MUST be done during tutorial this Thursday or Friday! 

Today during class I will be handing out tutorial invites for this week if you are missing work or have a C or lower

We started this course by examining a keystone species in our local ecosystem: the salmon.


Now we will step back and look at the bigger picture.

Turn to the next open right hand page in your notebook
(it should either be 19 or 21 depending on if you glued in your Unit 1 Study Guide)

Page Heading - 
Unit 2: Understanding our Environment (+ today's date)

Learning Objective: I can explain what environmental science is, its goals, its history, and the fields of science that contribute to it.

Today you will be reading an excerpt from an Environmental Science textbook which is an overview of Environmental Science (p.5-11)

You will also complete a set of guided notes that go along with the reading. These will be glued in your notebook under today's heading and Learning Objective. Some of the questions are answered directly in the reading and some are implied from the reading.
CLICK HERE FOR GUIDED NOTES

When you finish with the reading and the guided notes, do left-side color processing to represent what you learned from the reading and note-taking. Don't just draw random pictures! Show me that you learned and understood.
I will give you a checkmark for a completed guided notes worksheet when you finish.
