Ninth through 12th graders: Have you checkec out the new blog questions? I know many of you have lots of thoughts. Direct them! Share them. Click the tab on the left called Jill's Jots. You will find the web site that you need. Remember this is 40 points worth of required THINKING - in print.
Parents - if you were unable to attend parent-teacher conferences, please feel free to come by my room and pick up your student's papers for the quarter. I sent their grade sheet home with them. If they bring it back with your signature, they will receive 5 extra credit points.
TOO MUCH FUN!
Students who improved their CSAP performance celebrated with a trip to see the SKY Sox! This is the junior high trip.
Our high school students will have the opportunity to go see the Body Worlds exhibit at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science on April 9, 2010. Only 42 students will be able to go. Seats will be reserved on a first come, first served basis as you bring your $5.00 to Mrs. Smith. You will be responsible for your own meals while we are gone. We would like to encourage you to bring a sack lunch for the first meal, however, we will stop at a fast food restaurant on the way to Denver, as well as on the way home.
These lesson plans will give you a general idea of what we are doing through the end of the year. Many of you will miss many days. We will be going on without you, so be sure to check for your comprehension on any missed topic.
This time of year brings MANY absences from class. This calendar is designed for physical science students. It is subject to change but will give you a good idea of what you might be missing. You are responsible for what you will miss.
These are your lesson plans through the end of the year. They are subject to change, but they will give you a ball park view if you KNOW you are going to miss class.
All classes will need this conversion factor chart for the beginning of the year unit on metrics. After using it, students will need it in practical use science lessons!!
Many of you need help writing citations for my class (bibliographies). These web sites will give you many examples that you can match up to your needs.

These plans will help YOU plan for classroom absences that occur FREQUENTLY this time of year. You are responsible to find out what you are missing and get it made up in an appropriate manner.
Lots of "stuff" is going on during the last weeks of school. These plans are subject to change, but at least they will give you an idea of where we are going in case you can not be there. YOU are responsible for missed days.
