Hello everyone,
If you would like to make a donation for our hydroponics upkeep, we need more batteries for the device used to measure nutrient levels in the hydroponics solution.
The "watch batteries" are labeled as 357/303. If you would like to purchase any, we need two.
Any extras will be stored for next time.
Thank you for considering it!

Field Trip Forms Please
Dear Families,
Help.
Please sign and return the permission slip before vacation for the First Works performance, which occurs in February. Although it seems far away, we are trying to gather all permission slips and monies now so that we will not have to collect bits and pieces along the way.
This facilitates our communication with the business office and payment to the company to ensure our attendance.
(These were handed out on Wednesday and should be returned to the homeroom teacher.)
Thank you very much!!

Your MIssion
Greetings explorers!
JASON Project:
Your mission tonight is to ensure you have an account and YOU HAVE WRITTEN DOWN YOUR USER NAME AND PASSWORD!!!
Write this in your planner at the beginning.
I suggest using “Jason” for your password,since it only allows access to the site; it does not contain any personal information.
If you remember your info, from last year, click on the link for “existing account.”
If you don’t remember, or never had an account, click on the link below for “new account.”
You may have to try a few different user names before you have one that is new. Start with your school network logon. (usually first name and last initial or something similar)
Your Student license key is: WV83Z3W2
The license key expires: 08/16/2016
Students may use the link below to register a new account:
Students may use the link below to activate an existing account:
Once you are into the system, click around and see what it has to offer. Tomorrow, we will play a game in class.
Be sure you have your headphones.

Flowers: Form and function
Students!
Mrs. Shoemaker found another "study jam," which explains the parts of a flower, and animates the fertilization process.
Be sure to know these parts and how pollination works for next Tuesday's assessment.
Check it out here:
http://studyjams.scholastic.com/studyjams/jams/science/plants/flowers.htm
Remember, the goal is learning about plant structures and functions that help in survival and increase the probability of successful reproduction.
As you work and learn, be sure to consider what environmental (natural and human) and genetic factors may REDUCE the probability of reproduction.
If they are due to human intervention, what are some ways to help alleviate the problem?
Have fun!!
