Week of 4/23

Great sunny week ahead with cool temperatures!  Super week for lots of learning to take place.  Eighth grade continues to study energy and forces by doing some research on simple machines.  They will be creating a short podcast to share their knowledge of one simple machine and will present it to the class on Wednesday.  Test will probably be early next week.

Seventh grade will be wrapping up their group work and body presentations will start on Wednesday with the Urinary System.  I can't wait to see all of the creative ways the students will share their knowledge about their assigned system.  I am always surprised (and entertained) by the results!

Music Festival on Friday will give us a day off from science class as the students showcase their musical talents.
