In 6th grade science, we will be studying the fundamental concepts in the following topics:
Earth’s Surface, Energy and Space Science, Ecology, Waves, Sound, and Light
GOALS
My goal is for students…
- to become independent learners
- to acquire a variety of study skills
- to identify how they learn best so they can capitalize on their strengths while adapting skills to compensate their weaker learning styles
- to understand the nature of science
- to make real world connections
- to master all science concepts
****Homework will be assigned Monday through Friday. Due to the A day/B day schedule, I encourage students to complete their homework on the night that it is assigned. That way they don't try to do homework for all subjects in one night.****Major tests and projects will be announced in advance. Weekly quizzes (announced and unannounced) should be expected.
COMMUNICATION
- I will be sending written communication home to keep you informed of what is happening in science class. Most of these communications will be through a team letter, your child’s planner, or e-mail. If you have any concerns or questions, please contact me by a note in your child’s planner, e-mail or phone at school (980) 343-6920. My email address is [email protected]. I will do my best to respond within 24 hours. I believe we must work as a team, parents and teachers, to support your child.
