Our first week went great.  We are all getting to know each other and the students are learning the procedures and expectations of 7th Grade Science.  Each student should have brought home a copy of an introduction letter along with a copy of these classroom expectations and procedures for their parents and guardians to read and keep for reference.  I have offered extra credit to the students if they bring back a parent/guardian signature to show that these papers were brought home.

In class the students are already working in groups, creating a poster and presenting on what scientists do.  They are also working in an activity trying to figure out how to balance 10 nails on the head of one.

Have a great weekend.
