Greetings!
Sorry this is so late. It seems like I am still digging out from the month of February--Sigh! I am planning on grading everything that doesn't move over the weekend; that means three labs, the Series & Parallel Circuit worksheet, another Science Starters assignment, Microscope Lesson #1, and the Microscope test from Friday. So when you get this email on Monday, you may see a huge swing in your student's Science grade. So here is what we have done and will do this week:
MONDAY--Students got back several assignments and we went over them in class. NO HOMEWORK.
TUESDAY--Last day in class for students to work on their "Series & Parallel Circuit Lab". This worksheet is HOMEWORK DUE WEDNESDAY.
WEDNESDAY--Introduction to the Microscope Unit. Microscope Lesson #1 is HOMEWORK DUE THURSDAY.
THURSDAY--Students went over the information in Microscope Lesson #2 on the parts of a microscope and their functions. They need to STUDY FOR TOMORROW'S TEST.
FRIDAY--MICROSCOPE TEST (Worth 60 points). NO HOMEWORK.
Hopefully your student brought home "Microscope Lesson #2" and you are helping him/her study tonight. The TEST ON FRIDAY will be very easy if your child studies.
We ended the "Electricity Unit" with an online simulation on Series and Parallel Circuits. Several students did not finish this. If so, I will be contacting you to see if your child can stay after school next week and complete this assignment. If you have Internet access at home, your student should be able to complete it there. Thank you in advance for your support.
Your student has been working on his/her "Student Led Conference" slide show. Conference week is March 26-28, with Tuesday, March 26th being our evening conferences. I love this week! It's my second favorite after Outdoor School. Instead of parents/guardians and teachers running the conference, this is completely the student in charge. He/she will be explaining his/her accomplishments, goals, strengths, and weaknesses. If you have not experienced this, you are in for a real treat. You should have already received an email about this, and hopefully have already signed up online. If not, please contact our Office (360-264-3644) to do so ASAP. Those evening slots fill up quickly. Looking forward to seeing you there.
If you have any questions, comments, and/or concerns, please feel free to contact me. 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
Have a wonderful week,
Michele Humble
