For the next week or so, we will be reviewing for the math placement test for Jr. High. Students who are eligible to take the test were identified and should know who they are. If you as parents have any questions about your child related to this test… please get in touch with me.

- Today we learned about different traits and how they are handed-down from parents to offspring. Students identified and listed nine traits to complete a survey on with their families. Students were assigned to design a table to record traits of family members and then to conduct a survey to complete the traits table. This assignment will be due next Friday.
- All make-up tests will need to be made-up before next Friday.
- Also, all assigned reading materials and notes will need to be turned in by next Friday.

- Unit test for “Changes in the Earth’s Surface” was given last Monday. Most students did not do very well. I highly encourage parents to help their child retake the test over the holidays for a better score
- Today we finished up missing assignments, did some reading in science journals to build background knowledge, and went to an assembly. This was the last science class until the holiday break is over. Thanks for your support and Happy Holidays!
