Week 8 Science Lessons - Oct. 4-8 (almost the end of quarter 1):
- Unit 2 in your Science Notebooks will be self-assessed and scored at the beginning of the week.
- We will wrap-up our seed germination lab this week and prepare our presentations of our findings. This will be the last assignment in the Unit 2 module.
- If you have been absent, please make sure you have completed all assignments in the unit 2 module, except for the Seed Germination Lab, which we are finishing this week.
- Hopefully your plants for your plant collection are collected and are pressing in a nice, dry place. It is getting to be about time to check your pressed plants and start mounting them for your booklet. Information about the plant collection project is available in the Plant Collection Module.
- Quarter 1 ends October 14. Any missing work is due to Ms Blanding before this date.
