Mrs. Kahler's 8th Grade Science Class

Monday, April 28, 2008

Wow! What happened to the Spring weather? Hope to see it back soon. We are going to begin Reproductive Health May 1st. This is a fun class for students because they get to talk about their lives and beliefs more than in a typical science class. I'm looking forward to it.

Have a great week!

Science
Monday, April 28
We are going to be working in groups on creating our own shortened version of the periodic table of elements. Students will be using the Bohr's model and dot diagramming with it.

Tuesday, April 29
Mixtures day! Today we will be looking back at a chemistry section on solutions, solvents and mixtures and putting them to use in real life.

Wednesday, April 30
Chemistry Scavenger Hunt on line. There will be a guest teacher here today (unless I don't get called for Jury Duty). Please remind your child of your expectations for him/her when there is a guest in the classroom. I will remind them also. Thank you. Students will hopefully be working in the computer lab today.
