First, I would like to say I miss you and I am sorry that I can't be there today and I missed yesterday. However, test is still Thursday. Where have I said that before...but I actually mean it for the seventh graders.
Yesterday you were asked to get your notes in order if you haven't already and to have one question of the day for me today. Here is your opportunity to ask me that question.
In addition to that, you are now assigned one response to one other persons question, but don't stop there. There more questions you try to answer the better shape you will be for the exam.
Remember, this exam is about the Diversity of Living Things:
The big idea to learn is how are living things the same and how are they different?
Chapter One: What are the characteristics of all living things?
Chapter Two: Compare and contrast multicellular organisms and single celled organisms?
Chapter Three: What are the characteristics of Plants from moss to flowering trees?
Chapter 4: What are the characteristics Invertebrates from sponges to arthropods?
Chapter 5: What are the characteristics Vertebrates from fish to mammals?
Blog and discussion for Mr. Hoopman's science class. Seventh grade topics include Biology, Meteorology, and Physics. Eighth grade topics include Geology, Oceanography, Chemistry, and Biology.
