Christmas Break Nears

Happy Holidays everyone. Friday the 21st of December is the last day before vacation. We will have finished reading and taking notes for Chapter 7. The packet should be finished come that day as well. We have a new saying in Science class this term, "Failure is not an option." If a student is failing, they have to come in at lunch time to get extra help or extra time on their assignments with me. Well, have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
