Mr. Al González, 6th grade Science & Social Studies

Welcome!

Welcome to Mr. González's 6th grade Science and Social Studies (SS)! Email me if you have any questions at al_gonzalez@csd49.org and please try and check my website as often as you can at http://www.educatoral.com/menu.html. I will post any news or upcoming deadlines on the menu page but the Homework link is the one where you can see what we do here every day. This year I will be blocking my Science and SS classes so that we will have enough time each day to actually learn something. On the back is a sample schedule.
