Today: Students started the final exam.  This exam contains questions relating to the vocabulary and unit concepts we have studied over the course of the school year.

Measurement
Buoyancy/Density
Phases of Matter
Geology
Weather

Students will have to the end of class Monday to complete as much of the exam as possible.  

It seems surreal to me, that the school year is almost over.  I have enjoyed my first full year and a big part of that is due to the amazing students that I get to work with each and every day! So thank you.

1 day left. We can do it!
