Welcome back to school everyone!  I hope you had a great summer and are refreshed and ready to learn all about out beautiful home - EARTH!
I'm sure that you heard about the drought over the summer and why it is happening and how we can manage our water are just a few of the many interesting and inspiring topics we will learn about this year. 

HOW TO USE THIS BLOG:
Below you will find the agenda and the homework for each day as well as any links to information you might find helpful for the day's work.  Please check it regularly as I often post information and extra credit that I will not mention in class.  And especially check this site first if you are absent to get an idea of what we have done in class and to fill in your homework calendar.

You can also sign up for REMIND 101 - a texting service that will allow me to send you text messages about big homework assignments and test & notebook due dates.  It is free and all you have to do is text @geosc to 501-712-2821.
