Yikes! I forgot something important! I will be grading the Science Notebooks this weekend--they are due on Friday, June 15th. They will be worth 100 points, so that could impact your student's grade big time. There should be eleven separate items in them--I will attach the list to the Message Center.
Sorry,
Michele Humble

7th Grade Science Plans for June 11th through 15th, 2018
Greetings!
Hooray! I am all caught up on my grading! There is nothing in the "Hand In Basket" for me to enter into Skyward, so the grades you see in this progress report are absolutely accurate. I still need to enter the "Extra Credit" work I have received, but that can only help a grade go up; it cannot go down due to extra credit. It is getting very close to "What You See Is What You Get" grade-wise.
Now here is what we are doing this week:
MONDAY, TUESDAY, & WEDNESDAY--Students will do research on our solar system. This packet is HOMEWORK DUE THURSDAY.
THURSDAY & FRIDAY--Students will work on missing assignments, or if they have none, I have a special project for them. All work is DUE FRIDAY.
Also, as the end of the quarter nears, you need to know that the LAST DAY FOR LATE WORK, MISSING ASSIGNMENTS, and/or EXTRA CREDIT IS FRIDAY, JUNE 15.
As always, if you have any questions, comments, and/or concerns, please contact me. The best email 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

Now here is what we are doing this week:
MONDAY--Students participate in Investigation 5.1 and TURN IN THE WORKSHEET AT THE END OF THE PERIOD. So there should be no homework.
TUESDAY--Students go over the "Air Current Quiz" they took on Friday, add information on it to their Science Notebooks, and watch a video on severe weather (tornadoes, hurricanes, & thunderstorms), so NO HOMEWORK.
WEDNESDAY--Students will read an article on severe weather and will do a worksheet on it. This is HOMEWORK DUE THURSDAY.
THURSDAY & FRIDAY--Students will work on a project on clouds. This will be DUE ON MONDAY.
I was very disappointed in the scores on the "Air Current Quiz" that was taken last Friday. I will allow students to retake this quiz AT LUNCH ON WEDNESDAY OR FRIDAY, or AFTER SCHOOL WEDNESDAY OR THURSDAY.
Also, as the end of the quarter nears, you need to know that the LAST DAY FOR LATE WORK, MISSING ASSIGNMENTS, and/or EXTRA CREDIT IS FRIDAY, JUNE 15.

6th Grade Plans for June 4th through 8th, 2018
Greetings!
Sorry I'm late this week--between testing the 8th Graders on the State Science test and fighting one heck of a cold (Who gets a cold at THIS time of year?), I'm behind. My sincere apologies!
Now here is what we will be doing this week:
MONDAY--Students will go over the background for tomorrow's lab. NO HOMEWORK.
TUESDAY--Students will work on the lab for Investigation 4.1. The worksheet that goes with it is DUE AT THE END OF THE PERIOD, so NO HOMEWORK.
WEDNESDAY--Students will watch a video on the Wind, then will read an article about it, so NO HOMEWORK.
THURSDAY--Students will be taking notes on an article about the wind. This will be DUE AT THE END OF THE PERIOD, so NO HOMEWORK.
FRIDAY--Students will be taking a QUIZ on the lab they did on Tuesday and the notes they took yesterday (Thursday), so NO HOMEWORK.
Now that the State Testing has come to an end, our most sincere thanks for your support. The "early returns" we have received have been really good--and we know this didn't just happen. Thank you for doing your part to make our students successful.
As this term winds down, some students have "gone on vacation early" by not turning in their work, so some grades are sagging. Bad timing--you don't relax at the end of the race, you pour it on. We do have SATURDAY SCHOOL this weekend (June 9th) from 8:00 a.m. to noon. If you see that your student is failing Science, you can expect a phone call or email from me--or you can take the initiative and call the Office (360-264-3600) and request that your student attend. Thank you for your support on this.
Please contact me with any questions, comments, and/or concerns you may have. The phone number in my classroom is (360) 264-3644 and the best email address to reach me at is humblem@tenino.k12.wa.us
