Welcome back!

Welcome back! It's so good to see all the new and familiar faces this year. Our class has nearly doubled in size, and we are thrilled to begin another year of math and science. This week we are digging right in to our textbooks. In math, we are focusing on the commutative and associative properties of addition and multiplication, as well as the additive identity property and the multiplicative identity property. Tuesday's assignment is to complete lessons 1 & 2, numbers 1-29, odd numbers only. Be ready on Thursday with your assignment, notes, book, and math journal!



In science we have started off with a bang! We are discussing the properties of matter- both physical and chemical. We are taking a look at the elements and the periodic table, comparing molecules, atoms, mixtures, and compounds, and their properties. It promises to be an interesting chapter. The notes for Chapter 1, section 1 are attached here. Be sure to have read Chapter 1, section 2 in your book. It's only a few pages long. We will begin discussing the chapter on Thursday, as well as beginning section 3.

If you haven't returned your signed acknowledgements, emergency contact cards, etc., please do so ASAP.



Looking forward to a great week!
