For home learning; in google classroom, students have been asked to write stories that show their understanding of the concepts they are learning about in class. For example: \u2018Post evidence of the exploratory challenge that you completed within a small group. You must include a story, integers, a vertical number line, and a value scale for that number line. Additionally, complete the exit ticket from this lesson and post evidence of that as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Write a story problem that uses sea level and includes the integers \u2212110 and +120.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Explain what zero means in your story problem.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Choose an appropriate value scale to graph both integers on a vertical number line.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Graph and label both points.\u2019<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For <\/span><b>integrated language and UOI<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, students continue inquiring into the central idea: \u2018Flight inspires scientific innovation.\u2019 Students continue to develop their reading and writing through working on tasks set in Google Classroom in relation to a scientific report they are working on compiling. This is the precursor to students completing hands-on experiments and completing fair testing using a scientific model. We look forward to this fun part of our current unit. Students have also learnt about plagiarism, academic honesty, referencing their research and writing in<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/owl.purdue.edu\/owl\/research_and_citation\/mla_style\/mla_formatting_and_style_guide\/mla_formatting_and_style_guide.html\"> <b>MLA format<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> with \u2018in text\u2019 citations.
