Week of 8/12

Hello Parents and Students!

We have had a great 3 days of school so far!  We started off our Science experience by learning how to write procedures by trying to make some not-so-delicious PB&J sandwiches.  But, I think we all learned from our mistakes and we are now sandwich making professionals. :-)

This week in Science we will be discovering the Scientific Method and how to write lab reports.  As we go through the school year, all students will be required to complete a lab report for any activity we do in class.  To make sure everyone is prepared, we will be spending some time reviewing every category of the lab report.  I have attached a copy of the lab report so the parents can see what will be expected and the students can always access a blank copy if they happen to misplace their copy given in class.

Also this week, students will receive an assignment about the Periodic Table of Elements.  This project will last at least a week and the students will need to bring in an empty cereal box.  More details will be given in class.  The parents are invited to come see the end result, displayed in the classroom once the project is complete.


I think we are going to have a great year and I can't wait to see the students grow over the course of the year.  Don't forget to sign up below for e-mail notifications of this blog!
