We will cover the format of the exam in class during revision week, therefore, attendance is HIGHLY encouraged.

project for week 10:
3D Layers of the Earth or Volcano Project:

1. Students will work in pairs (and are free to choose their own partners). Students will have one day to prepare the project in class (the first lesson of the week), while the second lesson of the week will be presentations.
2. I suggest that students start on their projects at home in order to have some guidance from their parents. (If you are able to take photo evidence of you and your partner working on your project, like baking the cake or moulding clay, that would be great!)
3. Be sure to distribute the work evenly between the partners.
4. All layers of the Earth or the parts of the volcano MUST be properly labelled.
5. Students must also be able to explain their project in a brief 1-2 minute presentation.
Students MUST be prepared to submit their projects by the following dates:
