Week of 11/14

You should be seeing work being done at home on the computer for both 7th and 8th grade this week.  Both grades are working through interactive websites which fit with the chapters we are working on.

Seventh grade is doing a project entitled "Simple Inheritance".  By following a teenager with cystic fibrosis, they will learn the way genes are passed through a family.

Eighth grade is learning the makeup of atoms and how every element has a unique number of particles within it.  They are using an interactive lab on www.sascurriculumpathways.com.

All instructions to get into each of these websites is posted in ebackpack for the students to access.
