Welcome to Day 5

STEM Aeronautic Camp

August 10, 2012

The first person to start the greeting says, “Good morning, my name is ___________ and I want you to greet me in a ___________ voice.”

The class then responds by saying in that voice “Good Morning _______________.” Some possibilities for different voices are: spooky, whisper, loud, soft, baby, tough guy, squeaky, sing song, etc.

Striving for Excellence

• This will be your final drawing of the helicopter.

• You will have 30 minutes to work independently and quietly on your drawing.

• We will be displaying your work for other students to see how revision helps us “strive for excellence!”

Learning Targets for Camp

• I can explain the Principles of Flight.• I can demonstrate the Principles of Flight

by constructing a glider.• I can use the Engineering Design Process

this week to complete a variety of aeronautic products.

• I can reflect on my aeronautic camp experience each day in my journal.

• I can work collaboratively with others.

Progress Toward MasteryI can describe Principles I can demo Engineering I can reflect I can work of Flight Design Process in Journal Collaboratively

Duplicate this chart in your journal.
