Learning Intention
What did you learn today?
We wrote our Sky Science Multiple choice test today.
How did you show what you learned?
We learned test taking skills such as, tracking the questions so we fill in the correct bubble, determining the 2 'really wrong' answers and the 2 'possibly right' answers, we learned how to trust our gut and choose the best possible answer. We also learned that multiple choice tests can test our science and math knowledge but mostly they are reading comprehension tests. We learned to read each question carefully even if we think we know the right answer. 
What do you need to learn next?
We wonder how well we would do on a multiple choice test before we even learn the content. So, for our Air and Aerodynamics unit we are going to do a pre-test to see how well we are able to do.
