We spent the period organizing the year's notes, workbook pages, and final exam reviews so the students will have organized study resources for the final exam AND for the ninth grade Physical Science class.  Final exam Jeopardy on Friday and the final exam on Tuesday will be the last grades for the students this school year in Science.

Today each student was given a large envelope.  They are to put all of their notes, workbook pages, and CRCT/Final Exam Reviews in the envelope and bring it to class on Thursday, May 16th.  I am going to work with them on organizing the year's material so they will have an excellent source to study for the final exam.

The students worked on the Chapter 18 workbook pages.  All work is due on Wednesday, May 14th.  We will review for the Wave Test in class on Tuesday.  Your Wave Test will be on Wednesday, May 14th.

Since the final exam will be made from your notes, flash cards, CRCT/Final Exam Reviews, and the Guided Reading Workbook pages, you will not be using your book for the remainder of the year.  Consequently, books will be collected on Friday, May 16th.  Bring your book to class on that day.  If you have lost your book, check with me for the amount you owe.  All books must be turned in or paid for on Friday, May 16th.

I look forward to seeing you all in class on Tuesday.
