Mrs. Shea’s Science Class

I hope all of you stayed safe and dry today. Not a very good day to be off of school, huh?

Yes! A three day weekend is finally here! I have a lot of paper work to catch up on. I think your grade are up to date though, so you should be able to see them now from AP. A big thank you for the group that came in on their PE time to complete their observations. With enthusiasm for Science like that, YOU  will go far. We have very few days of school left and a lot left to do. I had a question about the 6th grade field trip. I plan on taking you to the Science quest museum in May. I don’t yet have a set cost, because I still have some details to work out.

I found my camera! it was at home. Apparently it had fallen out of my pocket into the bed when I went to lift my baby out of the bed yesterday morning. I am so glad it is back. I was afraid I had lost all those pictures.The sixth grade were finishing up on their unit on mass conservation and the fifth grade were learning how to use an equal arm balance today. You all did a great job, and my room still smells like Kool-Aid!

Yes, I have them. We have visitors coming tomorrow, and I am nowhere near ready. The game for tonight is still on and I will have to run the concession stand. It is going to be really cold tonight too. Oh well, this will be the last home game. To make things worse, I have lost my camera I use to take classroom pictures. I am sure it will turn up.

I don’t know about you guys, but I’m tired! Hope everyone is enjoying the units of study this week. I am still trying to find the dry ice. Maybe we can get some Friday. Trying to get some new photos uploaded, check back later.

I have been trying to upload photos from the Science Fair, but it seems I have used up all of my storage space on the blog. I will try again later, so keep checking in. Don’t forget the regional fair will be March the 9th. You will need a table!

I am soooooo glad it that Friday has finally made it! This is it. You have less than a week now to get those projects done and put together. I am counting on all of you to make a good showing so that we can represent our school well at the regional fair. We are all out of the black and yellow boards and we only have a few left of the others.  Good Luck!

Did you get a lot done while you were out due to weather yesterday? I did’nt accomplish near enough. I have added a new link to help you get charts and graphs printed for your projects. Check it out on the links page. I am trying my best to come up with a couple of projects for some folks who are in desperate need. If I haven’t gotten to helping you yet, please don’t wait on me, you may run out of time.

We made it! And, this is a three day weekend! WoooooHoooooo! That means you have more time this weekend to finish those projects up, or at least get close to being finished. I am going to try to update the Blog this weekend so check out the changes soon. I am also going to try to get some pictures posted. We still have plenty of boards left but some colors are going fast so make sure you get yours soon if you have a particular color you want. Have a great long weekend!

There’s too much going on around here! Tournaments, Spelling Bees, project boards, project ideas… give me a break. Just kidding, I’m having way too much fun! You guys are super. I have had people in my class typing log books and printing off research for the past two days. I can smell a trophy already. We still have quite a few boards left, but the black and red are going fast.
