Eureka Apprentice Week 6

 Eureka Apprentice Week 6

Don't forget to study "The Living Christ."

Study/Learn:

--Brain Work--

Here's my last shot at helping you understand WHY memorization is so important.

1. Memorization is Discipline for the Mind. It will train your mind to focus and be industrious.

2. No, You can't always "google it." What if you have no internet? What if it's not on the internet..(gasp,) or what if you want to have a good debate on the fly, or actually want to be an expert at something?

3. Memorization creates the repertoire of what we think about.  Elder Scott says memorizing a scripture is like making a faithful new friend: “Great power can come from memorizing scriptures. To memorize a scripture is to forge a new friendship. It is like discovering a new individual who can help in time of need, give inspiration and comfort, and be a source of motivation for needed change.”

4. The more you remember, the more you can learn.  Your memory is like a muscle in that the more you train it, the stronger it gets and more you can store.

Who's with me? Text Me, Sister Martin, 719-494-7522, Which one of these 4 reasons is the best motivation for you?  Yes, this is a 1 minute assignment.

--Marine Biology--

STOP!!!!!! Before you scroll any more, answer these questions.

What type of animal do you think this is? 

What do you notice about its skin?

How many different kinds of animals can you think of that have skin similar to this? 

--Marine Reptiles and Marine Birds--

0. Sea turtles are reptiles. Reptiles usually have scaly skin, lay eggs on land, and are cold-blooded. Unlike fish, they have lungs and breathe air. Sea turtles cannot breathe underwater, but they can hold their breath for several hours!

1. 1. Go to pages 71-75 in the curriculum (or on the thumbnails on the side pages 85-89. I just found out from Alex that the other page numbers were confusing!). Read about the Marine Reptiles.

2. 2. Watch this video about Marine Reptiles

3. 3. Go to page 77, (or 91) and read about Marine Organism Adaptations.  The instructions say to choose 1 animal and tell a family member about it.  I want you to do that, but you will tell me about it. You may have to look up additional facts!  

4. Send me 1 question for the kahoot about your organism.  The first 3 to send me questions will get vanbucks!  801-901-3610 or tasha.eagar@gmail.com

5. (Also, if you have siblings in vanguard, please choose different organisms so we can try to cover them all.)

A bird’s beak is essential to its survival. It is the tool a bird uses for obtaining food, shelter, and water. Marine birds’ beaks are specially designed for life in the ocean environment. A marine bird includes any bird that spends most of its life near the ocean. It is commonly called a seabird. Most seabirds have webbed feet.

0. Marine birds are unique because they do not require fresh water to drink. They are able to get rid of unnecessary salts in their bodies to keep them in balance. Marine birds are divided into five main groups. 

1. 4. Print out pages 122-124 (or 136-138) Read about each main group and sort the birds into the groups.

2. 5. Watch this video about  Marine Birds

3. Remember to take notes on all the things for the kahoot!

--Logic--

 Solve ONE of these puzzles.

For extra vanbucks you can solve all of them.

 Futoshiki

Cross Sum

Sudoku

Kakuro

Armada

--Exploration--

Check out the video about the Suez Canal. This is a canal that Mr. Fogg used when traveling around the world.  It is key to international shipping. Circle in on your world explorations map, and label it on your key, along with the dates of it's building.
