SCIENCE VS SCIENCING

How and why was velcro invented?

Today, the grade 7 students practiced taking the Foundation Skills Assessment test to become familiar with the format. Tomorrow, we will begin writing the actual assessment. There will be 2 sections for reading, writing, and math. The assessments will not affect your school assessments at all. They are simply to show the government how you are doing in those three areas.

1.) MATH:

Complete any unfinished work. It will be marked in class tomorrow morning. If it is not completed, you will go to homework club and your parents will be contacted.
Watch this video

2.) Lunch program forms must be returned tomorrow.

3.) POST A RESPONSE:

Complete yesterday's PAR first.
Today, you learned about the differences between 'SCIENCE' and 'SCIENCING'.
We also talked about how many scientific discoveries are accidental. Please share with the class one scientific discovery that was invented accidentally and explain the how this happened. Write a minimum of three sentences and use proper grammar and spelling.
Give two students suggestions on any spelling, capitals, sentence structure, grammar, etc.

=Popsicles=

One day an eleven year old kid named Frank Epperson was making a dessert. He used a bowl which was filled with powdered soda and water with a stirring stick. Then on that day he forgot to bring it back inside, over night it began to freeze because of the cold temperatures. Then thats how popsicles were invented...

The microwave
Sometimes all you really need to make the next leap in science is a snack. Percy Spencer was an American engineer who, while working for Raytheon, walked in front of a magnetron, a vacuum tube used to generate microwaves, and noticed that the chocolate bar in his pocket melted. In 1945 after a few more experiments (one involving an exploding egg), Spencer successfully invented the first microwave oven. The first models were a lot like the early computers: bulky and unrealistic. In 1967, compact microwaves would begin filling American homes.

In 1879 Constantin Fahlberg, a chemist trying to find alternative uses for coal tar, came home after a long day of work only to notice that his wife’s buscuits tasted a lot sweeter. After asking her about it he realized he hadn’t washed his hands after work and voila

Artificial Sweeteners

Aside from sugar of lead, saccharin was the first artificial sweetener and was originally synthesized in 1879 by Remsen and Fahlberg. Its sweet taste was discovered by accident. It had been created in an experiment with toluene derivatives.

~ Chocolate Chip Cookie ~

The invention of the chocolate chip cookie happened in 1930 when Ruth Graves Wakefield and her husband, Kenneth, were running the Toll House Inn on Route 18 near Whitman, Massachusetts. Mrs. Wakefield, a dietician and food lecturer, prepared all the food for the guests at the inn and had gained an enviable local reputation for her impressive range of desserts. It’s often said that necessity is the mother of invention, and so too it was in this story. One night, Ruth decided to whip up a batch of Chocolate Butter Drop Do cookies, a popular old colonial recipe, to serve to her guests. But as she started to bake, Ruth discovered she was out of baker’s chocolate. Ruth then chopped up a block of Nestlé semi-sweet chocolate that had been given to her by Andrew Nestlé of the Nestlé Company. Ruth had expected the chocolate to melt and disperse through the cookie dough as regular baking chocolate would. Instead, the chocolate pieces retained their individual form, softening to a moist, gooey melt, and the world had its first known chocolate chip cookie.
