Monday - fix your test

Today in class we did an experiment. We poured blue water, babyoil, corn syrup and corn oil in a beaker and watched as the liquids changed positions according to density. We discussed matter, mass, density and physical properties. Then the students had 15 minutes to work on their homework E15 1-5.

Students also had their tests returned and have until tomorrow to get the tests made up. They must do the test makeup on a separate piece of paper. Only do the questions that are wrong. Put the question number, if there is a letter answer put that next. Do not write the questions, but do write complete sentence answers. These makeup tests are due at the beginning of class. If they are not turned in at the beginning of class, no credit will be given.

6th and 8th graders have the Direct Math Assessment on Wednesday morning. 7th graders have the Direct Writing Assessment on Tuesday morning. Please make sure your student has had a good night's sleep and eats a good breakfast on those days. It really helps them.
