9/21

Students have had a busy couple weeks.  A few days ago, the 7th graders wrapped up their unit on the Scientific Method.  Just prior to that students used the steps in the scientific method in a couple labs ( Straw Towers Lab and Paper Chromatography Lab) to make sure they were confident in their understanding of this process of inquiry.  Students did a nice job on the unit and I am eager to see them utilize this process throughout the year. 
On Thursday, students started the Measurement Unit.  This unit will be a lot of review for them.  Students are reviewing measurement and the metric system now with notes and activities to make sure they are prepared to use their knowledge in an application activity next week. 
One more note, as students know, our new fish needed a name.  "Roger" is the name picked!
Have a nice weekend!
