Test Information

Today students received their Great Lakes Ecology Tests that they took. While many students did fairly well on the test, we want to provide an opportunity to get some points back for those that wanted to do better.
Students can get points back by doing the following:
1. Get a copy of the test online or from their teacher. A copy can be found on our Great Lakes page.
2. Students can earn 1/2 point back for each multiple choice question that they got wrong.
3. Students need to write a sentence explaining why they picked the answer that they did for each wrong question. This should be done on a separate piece of paper.

This needs to be done by Christmas Break.

Tuesday Class

Today in science class we did a variety of activities on how to affirm others. Affirmations of people's character is something that the 7th grade is really working on. We also introduced the next set of stations that we start tomorrow. Along with the station introductions, we explained some new procedures that we will follow. For example, the use of station passports...ask your son or daughter to explain!

Monday Class

Today we completed the reading activity that was not finished last Monday. In the end, what is due this FRIDAY is all of part C and part D. The activity can be found by clicking here.
