This means we're going to be creating a record of the events happening now for our future self to read! Each day I'll be attaching files (both on Padlet and Edmodo, in our Language Arts section) for us to complete. You have a number of ways you can make this time capsule!

You can print them off and complete by hand, you can use them as guidelines and make an electronic medium for this (like a Wix webpage, or a Padlet post, or a Google Slides or Prezi presentation, etc), or you can make each sheet by hand and your home materials (trying to include what each sheet requests from you)!

Today you'll be working on...

1. Title Page
This one is easy! It's just a 'My Covid-19 Time Capsule' title, likely with the date, your name, and a picture or representation of some sort!

2. You Are Living Through History Right Now Page
This one is about what's happening now! You can use pictures to show, or a journal entry (writing about what life is like right now in your home), or some special memories... anything to explain what's going on right now!

3. All About Me Page
This is so your future self can look back and remember all the different things about current you! Trust me, the older you get, the more you forget! Include all the listed details!

This work will be submitted once all four parts are completed. Please don't submit (there'll be an open turn in portal in Language Arts and Visual Art on Edmodo on Thursday, April 23rd) until we've finished the entire thing!

Bonus Activity - The Epic Online Library is free until the end of June. It has thousands of read-to-mes, chapter books, graphic novels, videos and more! Our class code is APK4555.

You can turn in your report in our Science section on Edmodo (with a text response) or even can use a speech-to-text program (such as https://speechnotes.co/ ) to record yourself reading out your answers (after that turning in the saved file, or copying and pasting the text into your submission on Edmodo)! If you want to make a Padlet, a Google Slides presentation, an Animaker or Animoto, etc (any other way to display your report) that's also fine, just make sure you turn it in through Edmodo!]]> 2020-04-17 14:39:40 UTC https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/day9/wish/513014111 markgiraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/day9/wish/513023229 2020-04-17 14:43:21 UTC https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/day9/wish/513023229 markgiraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/day9/wish/513023741 2020-04-17 14:43:34 UTC https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/day9/wish/513023741 markgiraldi https://padlet.com/markgiraldi/day9/wish/513226496 This is a two-day assignment, with work time today and tomorrow!

Today's Focus:

• A collision happens when one object runs into another. When objects collide, the energy transfers from one object to the other!
• Energy transfers when two objects collide.
• The faster an object is moving, the more energy it can transfer.
• The heavier an object, the more energy it can transfer.
