Everyone who has attended class this week has enough info to finish the project. Many thanks to the students who assisted in catching up the students who were absent or on the fieldtrip. That's real leadership!!
If you were absent/out of school the entire week you should read the experiment on p. 391.You will have to see me in class on TUESDAY to schedule a time to make up the lab. No one will do any experimentation on Monday.
The task sheet and rubric for the poster are viewable at

Monday's assignment will be to work on this poster. However, you may work on it at home. The poster is due on Tuesday as you walk into class. This way I can quickly grade them and get them onto your progess report. Evaluation will be part of the assignment for Tuesday.
GIZMOS
Several Gizmos were assigned last month. Two of them, Bird Beaks and Rainfall and Water Cycle are due on Monday, 04/20/09. I will pick up the grades electronically and they will be on your progess report.
PROGRESS REPORTS
These will be issued in classes on Wednesday. Parents please watch for them so that you can sign and return them ASAP. Many thanks.
