Almost Friday!!

You've almost made it to Friday!  I think my favorite part of today was watching a whole bunch of you fall for the Directions Quiz!  Wow!  It cracked me up to see you raise your hands and say "I'm on Number 8."  

Hope you had fun doing the skittles lab today.  We're about to get into the Scientific Method more next week.  So we'll do another experiment here soon!  I've learned through your interest inventories that a lot of you are kinesthetic learners, so I'll try to keep the hands-on learning coming!  

Thanks for checking in today.  As soon as the school sends out your picture release forms I can get some more pictures on here so you don't have to just read boring words all the time!  Have a great afternoon!

First Day of School

Well, you did it!  You made it to your last year of middle school.  Now all we have to do is get you through this year, so you can be a big ol' high schooler!  I'm excited to get to know you this year and explore some science together.  

So why have a blog?


This is created specifically for YOU!  Let me explain...



Ever forget what your homework was (don't lie,you know you have)?

Ever lost or not received a worksheet?
Ever get bored and want to check out some cool websites?

THAT'S WHY!  All of those things are going to be updated on here as much as possible.  Hope you'll take advantage of it!
Oh, and there may be some sneaky GIVEAWAYS on here from time to time!  Like how about now!?!  You can be entered to win a prize on Friday after commenting below by telling me what the best part of your first day was! To do this...Go to the bottom of this post and find where it says the number of comments.  Click on that.  Post your comment about the best part.  Then, where is says "comment as" scroll down and find Name/URL.  It will ask you for your name. Only put your FIRST name and LAST INITIAL.  (Example: Chris T.)  Do not put anything in the URL space.  Then hit "continue" and then "publish" and you're done!  Your comment will appear after I go in and accept it!

Thanks for stopping by!  Hope you have a great year!  Check back soon!
