6th Grade Science Plans for Oct. 12th through 16th, 2015

Greetings!

Hope you enjoyed the three day weekend your student had.  The teacher training we received on Friday was very valuable.  Most of it was for the "Chromebooks" your student will be receiving soon.  It's all VERY exciting.

Speaking of exciting, Outdoor School is fast approaching!  We really need the "Emergency Form/Permission Slip".  If you have not yet sent it in with your student, please do so AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.  Also, the last day to submit a scholarship form is Tuesday, October 13th.  Students should hear the following day.  Finally, the fee ($75) should be paid prior to your student attending Outdoor School.  I believe you will receive a bill for that amount if the payment has not been made before we depart for Cispus.

No here's what we're doing in 6th grade Science this week:

MONDAY--Students will go over the "Lab Safety Sheets", so NO HOMEWORK.

TUESDAY--Students will learn how to measure with beakers, graduated cylinders, thermometers, and a triple beam balance scale, so again, NO HOMEWORK.

WEDNESDAY & THURSDAY--Students will work on the "Measurement Lab" in class, so NO HOMEWORK.

FRIDAY--Students will work on the "Wind Up Animals Lab" in class, so NO HOMEWORK.

I am becoming concerned about the number of missing assignments.  This sets a poor precedent for middle school.  Please look this progress report over carefully and if you see that your student is missing ANY work, please discuss this with him/her. 

As always, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact me.  The best email address to reach me at is humblem@tenino.k12.wa.us and the phone number in my classroom is (360) 264-3644.

Have a wonderful week,
Michele Humble
