Welcome to 7th Grade Physical Science!

Welcome to a new school year!  I am excited to meet this year's 7th grade class and am privileged to return for my second year at Robert Gray, but now as a full-time teacher.  7th grade Physical Science focuses on Chemical Interactions (Chemistry) and Force and Motion (Physics).  We will also complete a Health unit on Drugs, Alcohol and Tobacco.

Physical Science has many labs so it is important to attend every class since they require set-up, supplies, and group activities.  It can be really difficult to make up assignments.  You have a few ways to get these assignments:

Visit this page weekly, at the very least.  There are many resources, class handouts, assignments/calendars, videos, slideshows, and online quizzes/polls.  Weekly writing assignments are posted and you must turn them in online.  This is essentially your virtual classroom.
 
CLICK HERE TO REGISTER BY SEPTEMBER 13. MAKE SURE YOU USE THE CORRECT CODE:
Period 1  7CSGL 
Period 2  G8PGN 
Period 4  JDM47 
Period 5  YXD3T 
Period 6  YYLMJ 
Parents may also register, but may not submit to discussion, polls, etc.
You may make comments on individual pages and have a secure "inbox" to send messages.
 
2) Links to assignments will also be available through our new online Gradebook. If you have internet access, you will be able to print any handouts/labs given in class.

This fall, we are excited to have Mr. David Westhora from George Fox University join us as a Student Teacher.  He will be observing, assisting, and teaching a work sample after Thanksgiving.  If you would like to contact him, please email him at dwesthora10@georgefox.edu.

I check my email frequently throughout the day and it is the best way to reach me (kwagnerw@pps.net).

I'm looking forward to a fun and educational year!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Wagner-West (aka "Ms. Dub")
