In science we will be learning about thermal energy.  We will watch a Study Jams video, read the lesson together.  Watch a demo of radiation, conduction, and convection.  Wednesday will be an open book quiz over chapter 5 lessons 3 and 4.  Thursday students will complete a study guide and we will review it Friday.  The chapter 5 test will be Tuesday the 15th.
