A few science updates...
Students will be taking a test over the first 2/3 of the year this
Thursday, March 9. This is over the main ideas within our life science and
earth science units (mostly rocks, minerals, and cells).
Students received a study guide today in class and we worked on finishing
it for a little over half of class. We will spend tomorrow and Wednesday
reviewing topics and the study guide for the test. Some students didn't
finish their study guide today but we are going over the answers tomorrow
regardless. It may be helpful for them to try the questions before we
discuss them if they have time but it is not officially homework to finish.
The study guide, as well as ISNs, are the best things to study for the
test. The study guide is *very* similar to Thursday's test so if students
are doing well with it, they can expect to do well on Thursday!
Students actually took this exact same test as a pre-test within the first
couple weeks of the school year. We will compare their pre and post-test
scores on Friday to see how much they've learned so far!
We'll then wrap up the earth science unit with a mini unit on soil and then
we'll be moving on to physical science to wrap up the year.
Thank you for all of your support! Please let me know if you have any
questions or concerns. Have a great day!
