Please keep the Science rolling...you should be almost done your activities.

Helping Bags

Leadership: Helping Bags Campaign

HDC Leadership students are spearheading our 2^nd annual service project called Helping Bags.  Our goal is to collect items to fill 30 gift bags with items for people in need. 

This project will run from November 23-December 11.  We will be collecting a variety of items for the homeless, assembling them into bags for individuals, and distributing them to the Mustard Seed in December.  

903:  Shaving Cream & Razors 

Math & Science Updates

Wow...lots on the go.  Can't believe it is December already!!

Math Rational Number Exam will take place on Monday, Dec 7th for the double period.
Multiple choice & written format.  Please ensure that you have a calculator for this assessment.  You will not be able to use a cell phone as a calculator.  Thanks.

Space Science Final Assessment will take place on Dec 17th unless there is a conflict with the talent show etc.  If there is a conflict, we will need to write on Dec 16th.  Please mark your calendars.

Great Math review today for the double period.  We were so lucky to have Ms. Wensley to support us.  Please work through the review questions from the board today as well as the  Chapter 2 review and the Practice Chapter 2 test in the textbook (posted on D2L under news on Oct 21).

Space Exploration activities are on-going...please keep moving forward with this work especially if Hum is light.  You should be through helio/geo-centric, azimuth/altitude, telescopes & most of spectroscopy at the minimum.  You might need a couple minutes in class to finish with the astrolabes & you will need some support on the Investigation on p. 381.  This activity booklet is the vast majority of this shorter unit.

If you have not brought in the $5 for your journal, please bring it in asap.  Thank you.
