Ms. Sutton's 8th Grade
Science Classroom
Ms. Sutton's
8th grade science classes follow the objectives set forth in the North
Carolina Standard Course of Study. Topics outlined in the 8th grade
curriculum include the Interrelationships between Matter and Energy, Changes
in Landforms and Life throughout Geologic Time, Interrelationships between
Microbiology and Disease, and a Systems Approach to Sustaining the Earth's
Hydrosphere. Students will participate in hands-on activities and inquiry-
and project-based research investigations throughout the course. Their
research will allow them to explore changes that have occurred within
the earth since the
beginning of time and threats to our world and the population in the future. |

In a total
of four calls, each involving 12-13 different schools on the dates listed
below, classrooms will be connected by AT&T Teleconference Services first
with a correspondent on the R/V Atlantis, pictured at left, who
will answer a series of questions about life aboard ship. Then the call will
be transferred down to the seafloor, where each classroom may ask questions
of the scientists working live in the sub at a depth of more than a mile! |

Call dates for
2008 are:
November 17, November 19, November 24, and November 26.
