Strive to be the best student you can be. Remain abreast of new research and
innovative methods. Smaller goals often fall flat without a link to students
dreams and passions.
In biology, we are working on the structure of an Atom. We are using
PowerPoints, textbook, online textbooks, mini clips and class participation to
ensure all needs are being met. When this quarter is over students will know
how to relate properties of atoms and their position in the periodic table to the
arrangement of their electrons. Explore the scientific theory of atoms (also
known as atomic theory) by describing the structure of atoms in terms of
protons, neutrons and electrons, and differentiate among these particles in
Ms. Foreman terms of their mass, electrical charges and locations within the
atom. Students will know how to differentiate between protons, neutrons,
and electrons in terms of their mass, electrical charges, and locations within
Biology the atom.

In Earth Science, we are currently studying the milky galaxy. We are
conducting class discussions, verbal explanations, videos, and study
guides to ensure each student receives the lesson. After this lesson,
students will be able to cite evidence used to develop and verify the
scientific theory of the Big Bang (also known as the Big Bang Theory) of
the origin of the universe. Recognize that the Milky Way is part of the
expanding universe, recognize that the universe consists of many
galaxies, including the Milky Way, and also recognize that when objects
move away from each other, the distance between them expands.

In geometry, we are focusing on triangles and angles in a triangle. We will
use our course workbook, practice book, PowerPoints, videos and study
guides to deliver the lesson. When this lesson is complete, students will
know how to Identify types of triangle based on the length of the side are
that equilateral triangle, isosceles triangle, and scalene triangle. Classify
the types of triangle based on the length of the side are
that equilateral triangle, isosceles triangle, and scalene triangle and
identify the types of triangle based on the size of the angle are that
acute triangle, right triangle, and obtuse triangle.
