This week we are beginning our first long project.

The Water Cycle PPT Project: Sections 1-4 is a 3-4 week long project, you make a PPT presentation with a partner, then you will present.

1. USE: Your science notes, your science classwork, your science homework. 
2. We have covered all the information in the PPT before.
3. You just need to find your notes and then think and discuss with your partner about what to write down int he PPT.

• All information in in the file above. 
• We cover at least one section each week.
• The file above says how many points each slide is worth.
• We will be working on this all of science class and part of LA class.  So, There are 40 points for science and 40 points for LA in this project.
• At the end of each class, email the powerpoint to yourself and your partner (in case you need to work on this at home or if your partner is absent.

This week we cover only SECTION 1 of the Water Cycle PPT Project: Sections 1-4.

Students, if you have any questions that Ms. Bernal or Ms. Heimgartner can't answer about the project, please email me (mwhite@kiheicharter.org) since I will be out of school recovering from surgery.
