Welcome to 2017!

Aloha Science Ohana,
 
Welcome back to school.  We have some exciting content coming up in both 6th grade and 7th grade Science, which will include labs, reading & writing, and projects.  The content will become more challenging as the semester moves forward so it is critical your student stays focused and on top of their work.  
 
Continuation Assignments may possibly be daily, for example if your student does not finish the assignment during class, then they will need to continue it (and finish it) at home.
 
Students should have a new spiral with them the first day of class along with their supplies (colored pencils, colored pens, tape, glue, pencils, pens, packing tape, etc.).
 
We started out class discussing the new semester, everyone has an A and it is their job to maintain that A---FRESH START!
 
Today students completed their Scoring Rubrics (marking text with 2 colored pencils, circle key terms, underline important facts, adding smiley faces).  They wrote their Table of Contents, which I supplied to them.  They glued in the first 4 pages in their new ISN. Finally, they worked on their Doodle covers (using a minimum of 4 colors, all pictures need to be science-related, and important information written in black sharpie).  Some students may need to finish this at home.
 
Looking forward to a fantastic second semester!
Ms. Duell
