Eighth grade will be finishing their Periodic Table chapter and have a test on Thursday. We will then move right into chemical bonding - one of my favorite areas of science! Element projects are due on Monday, December 12. There is no more class time to work on these, so plan accordingly.
Seventh grade is beginning our Creation vs. Evolution unit. We will be discussing the history behind the theory of evolution and reviewing our knowledge of the account of creation in Genesis 1. We will share our faith, but also learn some scientific proof for creation. I want my students to be able to answer questions about why they believe what they believe and be able to give non-christians some scientific food for thought. Creation has scientific proof behind it, and evolution is not the accepted fact that it is often taught as.
