Homework Assignment

Hi Parents and Students,

We are excited about our very first Science field trip of the year!  Middle school students will be going to the Museum of Natural Science this Friday, 2/8/13.  Please make sure your child has a sack lunch and turns in their permission slip.

Here are the homework assignments for the week.

Science: Due- Monday, 2/11/13
1.  Solar System Mobile- Make a mobile of the Solar System that shares a cool fact about each 
     planet.  You can use your notes from class (planet web quest, planet table, etc) for your facts or
    you can find new facts online. You have the choice of using the planet cards provided by me or
    creating your own "planets"  (as long as you provide an important fact for each planet).
