Hello!
Thank you to all of the parents who came to our open house. It was so nice to meet all of you. I hope you had a chance to sign in and check out the labs that your child has done in Science class.

As I had mentioned during the open house, I will be trying to update the blog as often as possible. Please bear with me during this process as it is new to me and there have been a few computer gliches at school as of late. Also, please feel free to email or comment with any suggestions.

This week we are wrapping up our Scientific Inquiry units. We have covered lab safety, lab equipment, metric system, nature of science, and the scientific method. We will begin a new unit sometime next week.

Upcoming:
Thursday 09/03/2009- Science and Problem solving worksheet (to be completed at home if not finished in class)
Friday 09/04/2009- Unit 1 study guide
Monday: No school Labor Day
Tuesday 09/08/09 Unit 1 Exam

**Please help by making sure your child has completed and studied the study guide for our first exam.

I would like to give all students a chance to complete the Gak lab therefore I will not be able to post the Gak recipe until sometime next week.

I hope everyone has a safe and happy Labor day weekend!
Ms. Duerr
