Getting Ready for the Upcoming Year

We only have a few more days of summer left to enjoy the wonderful weather and freedom!!!  Take time to get outside and just look at the beautiful world in which we live.  

This year in 8th grade science we will be exploring many aspects of our world from the tiny atom to the stars in space... and everything in between.  I want this to be an interesting, exciting, and informative year.  

This year is a year to learn about your style.  No... not your fashion sense but your learning style.  How do you learn best?  Are you visual?  Do you like to read information?  Do you learn best by teaching others?  Are you a collaborator or an individual worker?  What kind of notes do you take?

One of my main goals is to prepare you for high school.  You will become more independent this year.  

So with that in mind...  go out and have some fun for the last few days of summer.
