What a great first week of school- we knocked out our baseline assessment AND got to spend a class talking about eclipses!!!
There was an error in the letter that went home with students 8/15. Please note that Jacksonville will NOT be in the path of totality at all during the eclipse (we will have about 90% coverage)
Remember: it is NEVER safe to view the solar eclipse without eye protection. Outside the path of totality, you must always use a safe solar filter to view the sun directly.
Here is information from NASA about safe eclipse viewing
All safety glasses must meet the ISO 12312-2 requirement.
Whew — somehow we made it through the first day of class! I am incredibly excited for another awesome year of science at JLCP.
If you need another copy of the curriculum paper and/or the science safety agreement you can download and print them from Focus.
Reminder: this week all science classes will take their Baseline assessments.
Thank you all for another AWESOME year in science class!
Mr. Feagins said it at the 8th grade awards and it’s worth repeating: Once a Landon Lion, always a Landon Lion. Please keep in touch and don’t hesitate to reach out to any of us if you ever need anything. Seriously!
Have a safe and relaxing summer. Next stop: 9th grade!!!!
Today was an awesome day at JLCP! I always love getting to see all of your leadership videos. Congrats to all the winners!
I also want to say congratulations to all of the (many) award winners for all of your athletic and academic achievements!! I said it earlier today, but this year it was almost impossible to choose just one student per class for awards.
During lunch Mrs. Smith and I passed out the certificates and awards for students who completed the eCybermission and Toshiba Exploravision projects. I still have a couple of certificates from people who weren’t around so catch me next week.
Have a great (long) weekend and I’ll be seeing many of you bright and early on Tuesday for Islands of Adventure!!
