Take Home Test

In your textbook read pages 510-511, then answer questions on each page. Write the question and the correct answer. Remember neatness counts.

 

This Thursday we will be working on our conservation project. I have asked students to bring in their laptops or tablets to look up information. I have asked each student to bring their computers only if they have a lock on their lockers. The school is not responsible for these items. I feel this will be good practice for the 7th grade.The class will be permitted to use these items for educational use only.

It is up to you the parent to decide if your child is resposible enough to bring a tablet or laptop. If they cannot bring one other arrangements will be made.
