2. Reminders Final Draft of your Research plan is PAST DUE
Start your science fair experiment
Start working on your Science Fair Laboratory Composition Notebook. Follow the instructions in your Science Fair packet carefully. It tells you exactly what to do and how to do it. (Page 8)
CONTINUE Reading Chapter 12 for this unit.
Big quiz- double grade – on Thursday the 13th.
Study your power point notes and handouts 5-10 min nightly……..this will help on the daily quizzes and the big quiz on the 13th
Banana Split lab this week! All work must be made up by then. Banana Splits will be served on Friday!
