What is the Big Mo?

"The Big Mo" is short for mo-tivation. In class we motivate ourselves and others to master 80 percent of 5th grade science standards by the end of the school year. To know whether we are getting closer to our goal, we take a "Big Know" quiz on what we have learned every Thursday. Every week, we hope to hit that magic number, and celebrate the student "Mo-tivators" who do. These quizzes review our new science vocabulary, which we call—can you guess?—"The Big Vo."

To get the Big Mo, we must remember to follow our class rules or "M.O.":

Be polite
In class, work together
Get work done on time
Make the effort
Own your actions
