Science News

Each week in Science class students are asked to complete a Maintenance Sheet that includes 20 questions as homework.  The Maintenance Sheets are due on Friday.

Students also take a weekly Big 10 Quiz every Friday.  The Big 10 Quizzes are taken electronically on Edmodo.  Students can access their Edmodo accounts from anywhere with an Internet connection.  They can show you their score and review the quiz questions.  Parents can also have an Edmodo parent account.  Please ask your child for the parent access code to his or her account.

Our science classes will conduct experiments this year and we need donations of disposable gloves.  We will go through many pairs this year.  You are welcome to send them in anytime!  We will conduct our first dissection during Unit 2.
