Ecosystems: Puppet Show Interactions (Practice)
HW: Finish 16 flashcards - checked on Tuesday.
CW: Check the Puppet Project Handout from yesterday, make edits, and updated scripts. Turn in backdrop slides via schoology. (Can we get Google Classroom back?) You must present to get credit. If you are not here, you’ll likely have to work on a separate presentation.
DN: Prepare for puppet presentations.
EQ: How do members of different species interact with each other?
Reminders: [1] Wheel Projects are due Thursday (9/24) . Test your design at lunch or snack. Must be joined with another person’s wheel part(s). [2] Notebook check next week. Make sure your notebook is updated before the notebook check.
