This week we have been learning about soil formation and the layers of soil. We have also have the opportunity to look at several different types of soil thanks to Mrs. Schkade’s collection of soils from around the US and Canada. We have also had the chance to compare soil size when looking at boulders, cobble, gravel, sand, silt, and clay. We will be finishing up this lesson on Thursday and we will spend next week reviewing for our test. Our chapter test will be next Thursday, December 7.
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...
