  • The class is ninety minutes long; during these ninety minutes learning will take place.  I ask that you do not get ready to leave or actually get up from your seat until I dismiss you!
  • Science is all about asking questions.  Never hesitate to ask a question! Chances are, someone else needs to know the answer as well.
