Water Use Survey Reminder

Hey All,

Hope Thanksgiving was restful and fun. Remember that your water use survey is due on Tuesday, 12/2. I will trade that for an update on any missing work you have - what a deal!

EBMUD Reminder

If you did not finish the questions and writing about the EBMUD system in class, be sure to have it completed for next Tuesday, 11/25. Have a great weekend!

Directions for MythBusting

PIRATE MYTHBUSTERS DIRECTIONS!!!!
For each myth being tested, please set up a new page IN YOUR SCIENCE NOTEBOOK to detail the steps of the scientific method:

* The Question (the myth):

* Hypothesis:

* Experiment Methodology (how did they do it?):

* Explanation of what happened in the Experiment (what happened when they did it?):

* The Data (the information gathered):

* The Conclusion (Was the myth busted or not? Was it a valid experiment? What future research, questions, or experiments stem from this experiment?):
