Welcome to 7th Grade Science!
You will find many useful digital materials in Google Classroom for each unit that we cover on 7th grade: Force & Motion, Earth's History and Diversity of Life. Re-watch videos from class, download CW and HW worksheets and reading assignments and find links to Quizlets and other useful resources. Hint: Use the 'Topics' menu to filter information within each Google Classroom!
Science Notebooks
We issue you a 8.5" x 10.5" wide-ruled single-subject spiral notebook for all your science class notes, readings and writing. You can decorate the front cover in any way you choose! This is your Science notebook!
At the front of your notebook are resources like a copy of your Science safety contract, plus space for tables of contents issued throughout the year.
Each school day has a number in Science class and we encourage strong organization habits to help with developing effective study skills. Your notebook is your resource.
In class, the left side page is where you tape or staple all worksheets from CW activities, and all HW assignments.
On the right side page is where you write notes (Science terms and definitions) and short answer responses (Do-Nows, Turn and Talks, Conclusions and Exit tickets).
The right page is where you record your observations and diagrams from science activities! This is where you make sense of what you hear, see and touch.
