Parents, just a reminder the Science Fair Project time is upon us. All students have been working for the past week or two to choose a topic and begin the process. 7th and 8th grade project booklets and data are due on Monday, November 11 and 6th grade project booklets and data are due Friday, November 15. Presentations will be created in class. Students will be working on digital presentations and only those chosen to go to the competition will create a board. It is very important that students conduct experiments and record their data prior to the due date, without this information they cannot create their presentations and will not get full credit for the assignment. Please check with your student(s) to ensure that they are on track to complete this on time.
Thanks you,
MMS science teachers
