Room 416

All students are required to complete a science project that clearly shows that the student conducted a full scientific investigation.  Students should begin working on projects starting September 2007.  The Project will be due on April 28, 2008.  All work that was done should be clearly labeled with the sections of the student’s project (for example, Question/Problem, Experimental Design/Methods, Data/Results, Conclusions, etc).

Science notebook for room 416; 2 pencils, 2 pens and a pencil case with name on it; Pencil sharpener with cover/ pencil eraser; 1 pack of loose leaf paper; (2) 2 pocket folders; box of tissue; 1 ream of copy paper; Homework Notebook (marble book will travel with student)

My goal is to create a classroom environment that will help all students:
Build a solid science vocabulary
Gain a strong understanding of key scientific principles and topics
See how science is related to other disciplines
Effectively prepare for standardized assessments
See science as worthwhile and meaningful
Develop thinking skills and the ability to challenge assumptions, think creatively, and solve real-life problems.

Have fun!
