End of the 2nd Semester
Wrapping up 8th Grade Science
Final Notebook Check
We are having our final (yay!) notebook check of the year. I have updated schoology with all of their major assignments including items to ensure they are successful on the NB check. They can stop in anytime to get extra help organizing (and maybe finishing labs) their notebooks.
Here is what we have been doing in class!
Building a Rollercoaster
Students had to design a rollercoaster using supplies in the classroom then discuss the physics about how it worked!
STAR Testing
Students completed a week-long testing period. My testing group was awarded some donuts but knowing the tests were over was a prize in itself!
Alien Project
Students are creating aliens that are adapted to live on certain planets. We will be voting on different categories and I think this one is a nominee for "cutest alien".
We also built Rube Goldberg Machines!

Final Note
I have enjoyed getting to know the students and I will truly miss each and every one of them!
Thank you for all of the support you have given me and your kids. It is wonderful to see such dedicated and caring parents and guardians!
