Plate tectonics operating over
geologic time has changed the
patterns of land, sea, and
mountains on Earth’s surface
Biological, chemical, and physical
properties of matter result from the ability
of atoms to form bonds from electrostatic
forces between electrons and protons and
between atoms and molecules.

KWL
Water Molecule Models
Warm-up
MB-Bridge Fire
TOTD-Fleas can jump 130 times
higher than their own height. In
human terms this is equal to a
6ft. person jumping 780 ft. into
the air.
MB-20 Questions
TOTD-The human eye blinks an
average of 4,200,000 times a year.
How many times a day is that?
MB-Island Fire
TOTD-Armadillos, opossums, and
sloth's spend about 80% of their
lives sleeping.
