As discussed yesterday, that the test in science is being move to Tuesday, 9/23. Please review the copy of the test in your Google Classroom account and feel free to ask me any questions you have about the test before TUESDAY! I can't give you answers, but I am more than happy to clarify. We will play review Jeopardy on Monday to help further cement what you have learned in class the last three weeks and better prepare you for the test.
Also, many of your questions have been answered, via Twitter, from Ask a Curator Day! You can check out our classroom Twitter @BaysideScience6, or look at some of the questions and answers below!
