Welcome to Mr. E. Science

We've flipped the classroom! That means that we listen to the lectures at home & do the "homework" in the classroom!

...

Hey! Science has a new face! Mrs. Racanac! The two of us are going to co-teach the class! We will both lecture, do labs, and share in what ever we are studying in that unit. That way she can get used to you "miserable toads" and take over next year cuz it's time for me to retire and catch those giant steelhead that I've been dreaming of! (btw...steelhead are huge hard-fighting rainbow trout)

Hugs!

God is Good!!

Plan ahead & budget your time, and for goodness sake - don't fall behind! This will lead to success.

Your trimester grades will be calculated: Tests/Exams 60%, Homework/Labs 35%, Participation 5%.

7th Grade: Life Science- Review of Chapter 8 - Viruses and Bacteria, then we jump into chapter 9 part 1 - Kingdom Protista. Remember to look below at the "CHI Stuff", the "G&L Roots" and "NTK Classification" to see what will be required to memorize. This is all in addition to the regular chapter stuff.

8th Grade: Physical Science Starting on Chapter 14 and 15 - Intro to Matter.. Remember to look below at the "CHI Stuff" and the "G&L Roots" and to see what will be required to memorize. This is all in addition to the regular chapter stuff.Be ready....

Be Ready: We could have a CHI and/or a Greek and Latin quiz any time or any day without advanced notice. !!!
