Science

Science- California Earth Science We will be covering the California

Science Standards for sixth grade. We will be studying Earth Science.

Curriculum Used California Earth Science- Prentice Hall

Science Textbook All students have been issued a

Science textbook from the school library.

Student’s textbooks need to be brought to class and left here if they don’t need it that evening.

Books must be covered. I don’t have a class set of books for

each student to use at school.

Science Homework Rarely is homework assigned. If classwork is NOT complete,

students will need to finish it at home.

However, students need to review/study their key terms for 5-10 minutes each night so they are prepared for upcoming tests.

Science Notebook Students will put together a portfolio of their

work this school year in their spiral notebook. This project will be an ongoing assignment,

and the majority of the work will be done in class.

Everything your child will be doing in science this year will be placed in the science notebook.

Parents are encouraged to check their child’s notebook throughout the year.

Supplies for Science

Colored pencils Markers Crayons. Highlighters Glue sticks Scotch tape

Any Questions????

I’m looking forward to a wonderful year!!
