I am excited to welcome you to Team 8B Science!
Middle school is an important transition period, as you will soon be entering high school just one year from now!
Therefore as a team we set high academic and behavioral expectations that must be met in order for every child to receive the education he/she deserves. Each child on Team 8B is expected to be on time, sit in his/her assigned seat, participate appropriately and come prepared to class every day.
Students should be checking Google classroom on a regular basis, so if there is an absence, they can keep up with the work missed.. Students should also be checking Aspen regularly to stay on top of missed assignments.
Students will be using a new science text this year, but it is part of the same McGraw Hill Science series that students have already been using. There is also an online text book that accompanies it, so students will not have to bring text books home at any time. Students can access this textbook using Clever through their Google apps. A review on how to access all of this material will be done at the start of the school year.
I look forward to a great year in Science!
Mr. Gillespie
