    Hi everyone - not the usual layout....but good information anyway....

    7th grade: We worked on Aaron's project today....your homework is the Human Body Project. If you are doing a presentation that requires a powerpoint it is essential that you get me the powerpoint before the class you are presenting in.....we have to test it first.

    9th grade: We looked more at geologic time.....tomorrow your dino project is due. On Thursday (Gp 1) and Friday (Gp 2) we are going to have a quiz/tuiz on Geologic time. I have posted three things on the handouts page to help you, including a review sheet.

    See you all tomorrow.
