Students will be working on their Mineral Tic- Tac - Toe projects. This should all be done in class. Presentations will begin on 2/15 and end on 2/19.
I am having the students keep their science folders in class everyday. The rocks and minerals unit builds on the previous days work. Also, there are many hand-outs given out each day. Many of these papers were getting lost from class to class or from book bags to home. I will allow the students to bring their science folders home overnight for upcoming tests. I will pick one night a week to grade their science folders. I am sorry for any inconvenience.
