2010 Life Science
We have started the year with a great attitude towards learning. We are covering Chapter 15 from our Life Science Book, Food and Digestion.
2010 Earth Science
We will begin this year with a highly positive attitude towards learning.
The Chapter we are covering is Energy Resources (Ch 11). A project has been assigned to each group. All projects are different and will be presented next week during our block period.
More information coming up!!
