Happy Fall Ya'll!
Great First Quarter 8th grade!  You are doing a super job jumping into our Chemistry unit.  Our next project will be your choice of either:
Atomic Superhero Powerpoint or a 3-dimensional Atomic Model. Research will be done in the Computer Lab at school.   Projects will be due on  Tuesday, November 12th.   
 
                                                                                    
 
Extra Credit
Once a quarter students have an opportunity for extra credit.  They may choose one assignment from the following list:

• Create a presentation to share with the class including a 10+ slide PowerPoint and a 10 question quiz, which will be given to the class about a science topic approved by the teacher.
• Research a science current event and write a summary of the event and then present it to the class. 
• Create a science game used to review a specific concept or unit.  Students may work with a partner on this option.
