Today in science we did two things:
1. Took a quiz on Sand Dune Ecology.
2. Students had an opportunity to view published work from their peers on a Save the Beach/Sand Dune google sites page that students created in the Sand Dune Stations work. They voted for ones that they liked. The top vote "getters" will move on to a final round of voting to be done next week.
Information for this process was sent to each students email account.
Have a great thanksgiving everyone and GO LIONS! :)
All the information you will ever need to survive 7th Grade Science. This is where you will find calendars, extra handouts, assignment due dates, and links to extended information about what we cover in class!

Today in science we did a predator - prey simulation. The results of this simulation will be used in a graphing activity that we will do tomorrow.
The simulation can be found by clicking here. (However, it really doesn't matter because you need to do it in a classroom setting :) )
