Science Quiz on Monday!
My homeroom students will take a science quiz on the Water Cycle this coming Monday. They have two study guides in their binder to help them study over the weekend. The biggest concepts to remember are evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection (run off). They have a diagram of the cycle and vocabulary words to review. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Class Picture Day is Wednesday, January 31st!
We will take our class pictures on Wednesday. I sent home an envelope for ordering class pictures in our Tuesday folders last week. Please send in the envelope with your money by Wednesday. If you have lost your envelope and need a new one, please let me know.
