What an exciting week! Students really impressed me during the earthworm dissection on Tuesday. Students showed accuracy and patience throughout the lab. We learned about the final phyla of invertebrates on Wednesday ( Arthropods and Echinoderms) and we spent the rest of the week reviewing for our big invertebrate test. As a reminder, the test will be this next Tuesday, May 17th. Please come and see me either on Monday or Tuesday morning if there are any questions at all about the upcoming test.
I did want to make aware that I have added on our “Preparation Points” to the grade book. I have given each student 30 points to start off with, with the hope and anticipation that they will come prepared for class( we have discussed what this means for 7th graders). If they need to go to their locker for a supply that should have been brought to class, I will take off one point. Students have been doing an awesome job with the point system and ever since I started implementing this in class, they have been coming to class much more prepared!
