To the 2011 – 2012 School Year!

 

After a stormy start we are finally making headway in science class.   We have begun with a review of the scientific method and will have a first quiz by the time fall officially begins (Sept. 23).  Our first unit will be on Forces and Motion.  It should be a blast!
