Mrs. Dymond’s Fourth Grade Science

Welcome to Science! For the next six weeks, your child will be engaged in a tremendous amount of investigations and research. Students will be responsible for documenting all investigations in their science notebook, using the Inquiry process. The science notebook is a major part of the science grade. Students will have quizzes and a final exam. Students are encouraged to use their science notebook during each test.
