This week we have begun our study on minerals. While studying minerals, we looked an many different types of crystals. We began growing crystals in class on Thursday. We will also be doing an additional crystal lab where we will grow our own geode. Students will need to bring a jar (like a sauce or gravy kind) and an egg shell (a blown out egg) to class next week. The picture on this post shows what the final project may look like. I have sent an email reminder to all the students so they can remind you of this.
Earth Science
On Thursday, the students took their final test for Earth Science. Grades will be on RenWeb later Thursday evening. Next week I will be in DC with the 8th graders so Mrs. Schkade will be going over our weather chapter with the students. We will not have any homework...
