 With cold/flu and allergy season upon us,I have so appreciated all the Kleenex donations as well as the school supplies from the cards on my door at back to school night! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!  I am now good for Kleenex but am on my last container of Anti Bacterial Wipes for the students to clean their desks and counters with. I will give 3 gold cards for one container of wipes up to 2 Containers/6 Gold Cards per student. Lysol or Clorox are well known brands but the store brands are good too. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP (-: !!

Here is another version of the evidence and reasoning from the Photosynthesis lab you can be helpful when writing your 2 CER's . Remember Carbon dioxide and Light Energy are the 2 Reactants to choose, and support in your two paragraphs using LAB EVIDENCE ! Water is important too ! But the lab did NOT test for how plants utilize H2O, nor did it have an indicator or SOMETHING TO SHOW (prove) water is being used by the plants and photosynthesis is occurring!! No Evidence for Water! 
CER's are due on Monday!!! Please have them ready for stamping!!!
THANKS! Everyone have a great weekend😃,!!
remember to use your evidence on the flow of Matter (reactants)!and the flow of  light energy ( blue light / sunlight)

Remember to look 2nd Qtr. What to Know Power Point !

OK MY WORLDS GREATEST AND SMARTEST SCIENCE STUDENTS :D!! THE CHEMISTRY FINAL PRE TEST IS TOMORROW! YAAAAYYY!!! Remember it does not count as a grade, it's simply a way for you to see what you know on each topic covered so you are prepared for the REAL test on Friday, and to see the types and styles of the questions we will be using when taking computerized tests. 
NOTE**Be sure to look at some old assignments in your folders to help you remember facts and information about each topic and try and study some old diagrams or figures  and see if you can still explain what's shown in or going on in them. I will be giving you a review packet tomorrow to help you study for Fridays Final Chemistry Exam.
