8/31

Wow what a week! In Science the 7th graders really did a nice job going over what is expected in the classroom and in lab.  These expectations will be constantly a reviewed throughout the year to make sure students are upholding proper lab technique and positive behavior in class ( these are all found in the syllabus).  As an example, students seem to be very comfortable with Lab Safety, which was a large talking point this week in class.  Students ended off the day with an "E slip" to make sure they were understanding all the lab safety procedures before moving on to any labs this year. 
I did pick from the fish names, for those who had submitted a name for our fish. His name will be Chubbs.  For those of you who suggested a name, I thank you as now our 7th grade fish has a name!
Have a nice long weekend!

Happy New Year!  Happy New SCHOOL Year! Our Open House was a success, and I was able to meet lots of new 7th graders.  I am so excited to start the school year, I hope you are too!
For my homebase, if you did not come to Open House or did not bring your Kleenex, please remember to bring it next week.
Looking forward to seeing you all on Monday!
