Science Activity Scroll

Hi,

Thanks for your patience while I figured out an efficient way to communicate daily science .

You can check out the shared Google doc I use for classroom and student learning opportunities.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lG6YIcP07UGtAzK6zMiV98gvIvh89cu22M9d75xPCho/edit?usp=sharing

Basic scroll setup lists daily classroom activities & resources by the week.

Students have taken two Friday quizzes (9/22 & 9/8) and submitted individual/group tabloid paper notes from three weeks' worth of activities.  I am still entering data into our PowerSchool software.  It has been a good learning curve for all of us.  I enjoy the scientific curiosity & voices throughout the day.  Most of them are not mine!  I look forward to many other voices throughout the year.

Keep me posted if you have any questions or concerns.

Thanks,
Duncan

Field Trip to Bombardier Park!

Who: Team Prospect Students!
What: A team building field trip put on by the staff of Northern Lights Rock and Ice
Where: Bombardier Park, Milton, VT
When: Friday, September, 15th, 7:45 AM - 2:25 PM

Your students will be coming home today with a permission slip, as well as a health form and waiver from Northern Lights Rock and Ice. Unfortunately, due to development on their land, Northern Lights no longer has a high ropes course. However, they are able to bring the fun to us, and their staff, along with a climbing wall, will be coming to Bombardier Park next Friday!

Students should dress comfortably and wear good, closed-toed walking shoes; we'll be walking 1.5 mile each way to Bombardier Park!

Cost of the trip is $16. Payment and permission forms are due back to your student's advisor on Monday, September 11th.
