Hi All,
A little change in plans as we wrap up the year. We have four things to complete:
1. Density - we will finish reviewing today, and will have our quiz next Tuesday, May 31st.
2. Inconvenient stories. Today we will take some time for you to work with your partner completing your document integrating key ideas expressed in Al Gore's documentary An Inconvenient Truth.
3. We will be wrapping up your field project posters on chickens, a lizard, or plants.
4. Next week, we will complete our lab reports on sunflowers and soil types.
Seems like a lot, but all have been making good progress on all of these projects. Keep up the good work!
