• Welcome to Science! 

    Glad to be your science teacher this year! I look forward to an amazing school year.

    Some important things regarding the science classroom-

    1. You will find important documents like Science Syllabus on this page.

    2. However, I mainly use TEAM for sharing daily work and other important information regarding the classroom. We are also using Science Notebooks which stay in class.

    3. I encourage students to advocate for themselves, and reach out to me in case of any issues. I am available during lunch for tutoring or if they need to do make-up work.

     My philosophy for the science classroom-

    –1-Struggling is part of learning.

    –2-You are capable of anything.

    –3-Students are the focus of this class, not me.

    –4- You are responsible for your learning; take ownership.

    –5-Everything you do affects everyone else.

    –6-You are important as a learner and human being!

    Please find the science syllabus attached to this message. If you have any questions or concerns, you can contact me at-gbhatia@washoeschools.net
