Monday - Labor Day - No School
HW - Get all your supplies together and get a good night's sleep for your first day back to school!
If you haven't filled out your Cispus forms, do that so you can bring the completed forms to school tomorrow.
Tuesday - Welcome to 6th grade Science! Today I will give students a copy of my Class Syllabus, Standards, and Blog Permission letter (3 separate files here for 6 pages total).
Then I will collect their notebooks to store them in my classroom.
Then we will do an activity where students will test whether something they see is real or fake. (This will be fun as students use their skills of observation.)
HW - Bring back the Blog Permission Form and the Cispus forms if you haven't already.
Wednesday - Today we will setup our notebooks by adding a Table of Contents, a Science Drawing Guidelines sheet (I give this one out every year), and I will have students take their Lab Safety Contract home (this needs to be signed every year).
Then
students will have their Internet Safety lesson (if you click on Show Menu then you can view it full screen) as we prepare for a year of using computers and the Internet and the WWW. I will give each student a copy of our district's Informed Consent Agreement and Permission to Publish form.
HW - Bring back the Informed Consent Agreement and Permission to Publish form signed (it's two-sided so show your parents both sides to sign) and the Lab Safety Contract signed.
Thursday - Today we will finish the Internet Safety lesson (if you click on Show Menu then you can view it full screen).
HW - None, unless you haven't finished the any of the previous.
Friday - Today we will start a brief study of volcanoes including Mt. Saint Helens.
HW - None, unless you haven't finished the any of the previous.
