The new semester has begun and we are learning all about protozoa and algae in biology class. We began the school year with a study of general biology terminology and have now narrowed our focus to the five kingdoms: Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia.
In Physical Science class, the eighth graders are learning all about water as we prepare for our study of the hydrosphere. They have studied the elements that compose this molecule, its polarity, and how the molecule's chemical bonds make it a truly unique substance.
The sixth and seventh graders have learned all kinds of interesting facts about the skeletal and muscular systems. They are soon to begin a study of the digestive system.
Parent/Teacher conferences will begin the last week of January. I look forward to meeting with you!
