In sixth grade today, we began an experiment to investigate fossil fuels. One of the concepts we explored is "What are fossil fuels?" The attached link has some great information - check it out!

In seventh grade, we began a lab to explore the behavior of oil in water. We will continue the lab tomorrow. Students need to measure the area of a rectangle or a circle. We will continue with this lab tomorrow.
For both grades, we have had great progress for our Challenge of the Week (COW). It has been reviewed daily, and will be turned in tomorrow for a grade. I will be returning the graded COWs next week.
We will also be celebrating our first 'Success Day' tomorrow during the last hour of the day. Students who have completed the Math, Reading, Writing, and Research portions of their Summer Activity Journals will participate.
