Dear Parents,

As we get closer and closer to the end of the quarter, more and more projects... will be due.  Please help me to help the kids to stay focused and on track.  We had a great Thursday and Friday during work time, but that was after a VERY ROUGH Wednesday study hall.  I am so glad they realized what an opportunity he/she was giving up by not using their time.

We will start our next science project this week.  It is one of my absolute favorite 7th grade projects.  They learn about cell reproduction but must develop a way to perform it for the class.  They are able to work in groups for this project.  I LOVE the creativity that comes out during this time.  It will be due on October 15th at the end of class.

If your child wants to take advantage of the early due date for articles, it is this week.  7th graders' articles must be in by October 3rd for that opportunity.  The real due date is October 17th. 

Have a wonderful week!  Please never hesitate to reach out if you have thoughts or questions.  I am only an email away!

Kim

Dear Parents, I missed last week and I am sorry about that.  We just finished our first full week in quite a while.  We did it! This week is a HUGE week for the 7th and 8th graders, in regards to science fair.  The due dates are based upon last names.  Q-Z are due Tuesday, H-P are due Wednesday and A-G are due on Thursday.  The student must turn in a PRINTED, edited and signed rough draft.  I will be looking for content more than spelling, grammar, etc (that will be when I grade the final paper)...  All parts to the science fair are due the following Thursday, March 7th.  (poster board, paper -rough and final- and a prepared presentation) Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help in anyway. Take care and have a great week! Kim

Have a great week! Kim

Dear Parents, We are counting down the days to 2 important dates:  March 7th and March 14th. March 7th (Thursday of this week):  ALL parts of the science fair are due.  Students must turn in the SIGNED rough draft/final copy of the paper, eye-catching poster board and a prepared presentation.  These are all due Thursday by the end of class. March 14th (Thursday next week):  7th and 8th graders will be in the gym all afternoon talking to the school students about his/her projects' outcomes.  The 7th and 8th graders will then come back from 5:55-7:45 in the evening.  All parents and former students will be joining us in the gym.  I will be sending an update via email shortly.  Have a great week!  Please never hesitate to reach out if you have questions or concerns. Take care, Kim
