Inspirational Quote of the Day: “I don’t love studying. I hate studying. I like learning. Learning is beautiful.”– Natalie Portman 

Objective:7.2 Lesson 1: How can we heat up food when we don't have our typical methods available? 

Standards:

MS-PS1-6:

Undertake a design project to construct, test, and modify a device that either releases or absorbs thermal energy by chemical processes.

MS-ETS1-2:

Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.

MS-ETS1-3:

Analyze data from tests to determine similarities and differences among several design solutions to identify the best characteristics of each that can be combined into a new solution to better meet the criteria for success.

MS-ETS1-4:

Develop a model to generate data for iterative testing and modification of a proposed object, tool, or process such that an optimal design can be achieved.

Warm-Up: Turn and Talk- What did we learn about yesterday. Be prepared to share what your neighbor said.
