Welcome

A new school year is upon us once again. Ms. Hill and I are excited to be given the opportunity to pilot the new Physical Science 20 curriculum together as co-teachers. We are still reworking and tweeking how it will all work to ensure that everything runs smoothly.  To make life simpler for students, parents and ourselves, we are hoping to use this blog on a daily basis to post notes, assignments, due dates and extra resources for the class. We are posting the notes on this blog so that you can utilize them in whatever way is the best for you. You can bring a device (laptop or tablet) to school and keep everything digital or you can keep written copies (printed or written out) and keep these organized in a binder. However, you MUST have the ability to bring the notes to class so you can follow along and add any additional notes in your science data binders, in whatever form you have chosen that to be. We are looking forward to a fun and interesting semester. Please feel free to let us know if you have any suggestions or comments on the course or the blog.
