This website is intended to provide you with class information that you may have missed. Perhaps you were absent, the dog ate your notebook, or you were daydreaming during class about your next trip to a science museum. Whatever the reason, click on your class to find past assignments.
 
Many handouts will be available under Class Downloads (scroll to the bottom of that day). If you have trouble downloading the document, try accessing ClassJump using the FireFox browser. If that doesn't work, send me an e-mail. Due dates for any homework will be in {brackets}. You must click "PAST" to see earlier daily agendas.
 
QUESTIONS? Visit me after school in Room 259 or e-mail me at freeman_jeffrey@salkeiz.k12.or.us

Before becoming a science teacher, I worked as a geologist. As you probably know,               GEOLOGY ROCKS!  This video clip from "American Dad" on the following website will give you some insight why...  http://www.usydgeosoc.com/?p=1334

Making-up the daily physics questions is not required, but if you wish to do so, check the day you missed to see if any were assigned. Write your name, date missed, questions with answers, and hand-in.

Science classes are so much more FUN when you have needed materials (pencil & paper). For even more excitement, bring your homework too! Be sure to bring your Science Notebook to class, and you'll always be able to add notes and assignments.
