Dear Parents- We are 2 weeks from the end of first quarter. We will be completing a final unit on organic molecules ( proteins, carbohydrates, fats) and their role in living things. Please check your student's grade book to see how they are doing. Excessive absences account for many low grades and keeps students constantly working from behind to catch up. My room is open for study and work every day at lunch. We have a unit test on Periodic table and basic chemistry concepts on Friday 9/21. Your student has 2 practice quizzes, videos and the power points for all notes in their classroom stream to help them prepare. Please encourage them to seek help and do these practice items as well as review the note taker, bell works and labs. Thank you.
