Dear Middle School Scientist,

          In the month of November, we will be learning about the solar system and the difference between inner and outer planets.  We will also be learning about other objects in the solar system.  You will have a project on the solar system due on November 14, 2008, where you will have to make a mobile.  With this project you will not only learn more about the different planets, but also learn more about the different temperatures, length of orbit, and the number of moons.  I can’t wait to see your projects.  After the solar system, we are going to learn about stars.  How exciting!

          As for the 6th and 7th grade we will continue learning more about the body.  Next, we will take a closer look on our skin and learn the difference between epidermis and dermis.  We will complete a few labs in class and continue working on different interactive assignments.  We will be working together as a class so that we can all learn and grow from each other.

          I will like to remind you to try your best and to STUDY hard!  I am looking forward to this month’s lessons and teaching all of you!
