Hey Bro, are you sure you want a brochure?


















Tonight's assignment is to write a little blurb to a 6th grader, explaining why the unit you are focusing on is something they may find interesting. For example, if I was doing UNIT 3 I might write something like this:

"Have you ever wondered what's happening in action movies when a car flies through the air and then crashes and explodes? In this unit you will come to understand that the smashing of the metal car is an example of a physical change while the car explosion is an example of a chemical change. Not only will you learn to distinguish between physical and chemical changes, but you will also learn about other cool things like mixtures, solutions and compounds and how we interact with them daily. It doesn't matter if you are a fan of James Bond or of Jason Bourne, either way you'll have an explosive time in 7th Grade Physical Science."

Remember, your AUDIENCE is the current 6th grade so keep it brief and simple.
