//ccms.ccusd.org/apps/classes/996479/assignments/ Class Name: SCIENCE 8 - Ms. Stowers - Period 1-Period 1 Instructor(s): Katherine Stowers en-us SchoolSitePro //ccms.ccusd.org/homeworkItem7927335 //ccms.ccusd.org/apps/classes/996479/assignments/ I just wanted to say really quickly that this has been a very challenging year and we made it through (school wise), together.  Zooming this entire year and some of last year was not easy. I really appreciate each and every one of you. 

I think we all learned a lot this year.  In this last question, I'm going to ask you to share something that worked for you in science class this year and something that didn't.  I really hope we don't ever have to conduct school like this again.  Just in case, I'm asking for your feedback in this way.  

I hope you all have a enjoyable and restful summer.  Best wishes regarding all of your futures! 

Take great care,
Ms. Stowers

1.  What are two goals you have for the future?  Any goals at all.  It could be related to high school, college, career choice when you are an adult, family, future home or something else is fine too! 


2.  What will you need to do to accomplish those goals? 


I hope you pick something fun that are looking forward to and then just make sure to include the steps you would take to make sure you can reach the goal.  :)

I wanted to give you an opportunity to engage with and start to get to know your classmates because the first assignment, the survey questions from Monday/Tuesday, won't be shared with students.

For fun.....
-QUESTION: If you got to choose one place anywhere in the world to visit for an end of the year field trip, where would you pick and why?
-Please answer the question in 3 - 5 (or more) complete sentences. You can include some of the fun things you would want to do while visiting the place you picked.

-Respond to at least 2 students comments (2-3 sentences), in a respectful way also using complete sentences.
Some examples: You may:
1.Agree and add on
2.Explain a connection
3.Did they teach you something new or give you a new idea

Note:
-Just make sure to be kind in your responses
-I don't think you will be able to see other posts until you post your own.

When finished, hope you have a great weekend and see you on Monday/Tuesday next week!
