Hello Students and Families, 

On March 12th, schools were ordered to close down for three weeks. However, this does not mean that your education stops. You can expect to be given assignments to do online, from the comfort of your home! 

All seventh grade science teachers will be using the following format for the next three weeks:

• On Monday, by noon, we will post your weekly assignments on the blog. These will consist of NewsELA and IXL assignments. 
• These assignments are due on Saturday, by noon. 
• Each assignment will be graded based on completion and effort. 

In addition to your weekly assignments, we are asking that you continue to work on your science fair project on your own.  When you return to school, we need a document which has the following:

• The science question you are investigating
• The hypothesis stated as an if/then statement
• The procedure to complete the experiment
• A list of materials needed
• Research about your topic
• The Independent variable, dependent variable and control variable. 

The actual experiment does not need to be done at this time.  We know many of you are working with a partner, and we do not expect you to work with a partner at this time.

Please email me with any questions and/or concerns.

Be safe.

Ms. Duquette
