CH 7: Plate Tectonics - Vocabulary

English Class & Advanced English Class on Tuesday, January 13th

After you have finished the benchmark test, you have two options:

Option 1: You can work on your Noodletools citation that is due at the end of class tomorrow.  You are required to share your citation with me so that I know you have completed it.  The Drop Box for this month is called Period___: January AR Book. (Remember: Your citation counts as part of your grade on your AR Quiz.)  You will be taking your quiz on Wednesday in the library and your citation is due by the end of class.

Option 2: You can go to No Red Ink and work on a grammar practice activity that I have created for you. (This assignment will not be counted as a grade.)  If you forgot your username, there is a list of usernames on top of the Chromebook cart. Your password is either your student I.D. number or your student I.D. number followed by cmsd.

The Incredible Edible Earth!: 2014-2015

The Supernova science classes spent time creating edible physical models of the Earth's interior. These models didn't last too long because of hungry Supernovas! Fortunately, the real Earth is not in danger because, unlike our models, it does not consist of SunButter, jelly, chocolate chips, graham crackers, powdered sugar, and honey.

Students of the Month: December

The Supernova teachers would like to congratulate the following Supernovas for earning student of the month honors for the month of December.

Social Studies: Maxwell S.
English: Rachel K.
Science: Estee C.

Outstanding Supernova Citizen: Luke P.
