by Mr. Carrison
I will sadly not have the necessary time this year to actively post study guides to this blog. Nor will I have the time to monitor comments on this blog. That sadly said I will turn off the comments feature BUT will leave the old study guides up so that you can use them for the upcomming tests. Progress??? Note that this will mean the study guides will not be as pin point accurate as in years past but hopefully still a BIG help in preparing for our weekly science tests.
Due to repeated office requests I will try and post some homework to this site. Since teachers will be given some limited time to make this a reality I will try and comply. Parents can check out this blog for some of our science homework. See links below to other school sites.
Time, time, time,
Time, time, time,
