Hello Students and Parents,
I wanted to thank you for all of the great science fair papers that were turned in this week. I know it took a lot of hard work, but that was a huge step towards finishing up your science fair work for the year. Next step will be your abstracts. They are due next Wednesday!

Our illustrations of the book are now in the library. Way to go Seventh Grade! Be sure to thank Mrs. Milligan next time you see her. (Maybe check out the book and show your parents).
As a class we will illustrate “What is Science?” by Rebecca Kai Dotlich. Post your response to the poem in the comments section.
Students and Parents,
I made a PowerPoint that shows exactly what goes in each section of the science fair lab report. It differs slightly from what was in the SF packet, but it is a little bit easier to read. Sorry that there are no fancy graphics. I wanted to keep it simple.
SCHOOL SCIENCE FAIR COMPETITION WILL BE NOVEMBER 20 not Nov 21

Please, please, please call Ms. Neathery or I and say “yes!” to being a science fair judge.

The scientific papers for your science fair projects are due on October 30th. Consider it an early Halloween Trick for Mr. K. You need to be working on your projects or else you will run out of time.

Hello Parents,
It’s that time of year again. Monday, October 13 is Parent Teacher Conference Day. If you want to set up a time to meet with us, please call Margay at 826-0664 to choose your time. 8th grade parents will be meeting with Mr. Kremer and myself while the 7th grade parents meet with Dr. B and Mrs. Grimes.
If you feel confident that your student is doing well and you are happy with the grades, there is no pressing need for you to make an appointment. Of course, we always like to hear from you and visit with you about any matters.
See you on the 13th!
