Science, Social Studies, and Religion - Mrs. Heather Ricardi

Fun Fact: I have been skydiving before!

**Please encourage your children to make sure they hand in assignments when they are due. If they are absent, please make sure that they look to see what they have missed! Science and Social Studies are rotating subjects and are not taught each week! When looking at Power School, please be aware that grades in Science and Social Studies take time to update. These classes are on a rotation and grades won't change until we visit that subject again! If you have any questions about this, please reach out!

Science

This week we are returning to electricity. We will review what we covered before Easter Break and then move into different types of energy, sources of energy, and how it travels. We will hopefully be completing two Mystery Science activities this week and into next week.

Social Studies

Please continue to practice the states and capitals! The next test will be on Monday, April 20th

Religion

This week we are going to be learning about the Fourth Commandment. This is chapter 14 in our Religion book.

Homework: This is the projected homework for this week. It is possible that due to circumstances in class the homework may change. It is also possible that students will need to finish classwork that they did not complete during the class period to be turned in the next day which will not be listed here. Please look at the student's planner as this will have the most recent and up to date homework. If nothing is written in the agenda, please look at the absent work file attached at the top of the page as the current information will be found there!

Their login information is taped into their binders!

The quizzes will be broken into two parts.
