SEM 2 SCHEDULE:

1st:        Chemistry

2nd:       AP Env. Science

3rd:        Chemistry

4th:        Planning

2023-24 Deniakos - SL1

CHEMISTRY is the study of matter and how matter reacts and combines with other matter.

​​ You might know by now, that chemistry involves math.  If your math skills are weak, your grade will most likely suffer.  I will show you the mathematical procedure for solving each type of problem, but I can't reteach all math skills through Algebra I.  

The more you practice solving each type of problem, the better you will get.  Do all of your homework problems, even if you are sure that you know how to work them.  TO GET CREDIT FOR A PROBLEM ALL WORK MUST BE SHOWN STEP BY STEP!

Homework!!!!!

​​ I do not accept late homework.  Homework is due at the beginning of class and will be checked periodically.  It counts as 10% of your nine weeks grade.

Do NOT copy homework from others. To succeed, you must put forth effort and learn how to work all types of problems.

Expect a quiz after a homework assignment.  If you simply copy someone else's answers, you will NOT do well on the quiz!

We will follow handbook policies in this class.   

Unauthorized cell phone usage will result in confiscation of the cell phone and an office referral.

You must make up all work in the # of allowed days after school.

If you were absent, do NOT WAIT UNTIL YOUR RETURN to view your makeup work; it will be posted on GOOGLE CLASSROOM, and you can access it from anywhere on a cell phone.  

If a test or quiz was announced (verbally or in writing) prior to your absence, you will be required to take the test if you are in class, even if you have been absent. The day before the test is devoted to review (usually), and you can review independently or check out the website.  You can also email me.

Quizzes!!!!!

​​ Some quizzes will be announced. Others will not be announced.  You MUST keep up in Chemistry class, because the content is CUMULATIVE.  If you can't write your ABCs, you surely cannot write an essay or a research paper.  Chemistry gets harder and harder as the year progresses.   Frequent quizzes will ensure that you study, do your homework, and pay attention.

Expect FREQUENT quizzes at any time.

Labs are a crucial component of a Chemistry course.  Labs help you make connections, put the ideas in to action, and allow you to hone your lab skills.  Take the lab experiences seriously.  Write reports as required by the teacher.  There is NO HORSEPLAY in the lab!   Points will be deducted if you do not follow safety rules (running, hitting, not wearing goggles. etc.)  Be safe in all aspects.  Work with your lab group, but do NOT copy each other's written work---make it your own. Each student turns in his/her OWN, UNIQUE lab report.

Fifth Grade

Here in the 5 th grade at Wells Junior High School we serve as the gateway to your child's middle school experience. Our role is to make your child's transition from elementary to middle school seamless and positive. The home-school partnership is a vital component to your child's success.

Below is our contact information and a general description of life in the fifth grade. We pride ourselves on being accessible and responsive. Generally, email is the fastest and most efficient way to communicate. We all check our email daily, and we would encourage you to do the same. Often times we will send general announcements home via email or Jupiter Grades in addition to information that may be directed specifically to your child.

Course Descriptions

Math - The 5th grade math curriculum follows the Eureka Math program. Families can access all materials and resources online. 

This program has a strong emphasis on place value, including decimals to the thousandths. Fractions, decimals, and percents are examined at a deep level. Geometry concepts of area and volume, as well as properties of shapes and angles are also central to this program. 

Social Studies - Grade 5 Social Studies is a half year course. We begin the journey of American history, covering 3 major units along the way. Unit 1 begins with Native American cultures, followed by Geography terms, and culminating with Early European Explorers. Unit 2 focuses on the founding and settling of the original 13 colonies, with a particular emphasis on what life was like in the New England colonies. Finally, our journey ends in Unit 3 with the study of the major causes and effects leading up to the American Revolution. 

Language Arts- Although reading and writing are interconnected, grade 5 Language Arts has two blocks. One block is primarily for writing, spelling, and grammar while the 2nd block is primarily reading and vocabulary. We continue to use the Scott Foresman Reading text Reading Streets along with the Spelling and Grammar workbooks. Our focus on writing will be on narrative and persuasive/informational writing. Reading involves vocabulary, comprehension, and fluency of short stories and novels, both fiction and nonfiction, through skill work as well as discussion and reflection.

Science - The students have science for half a year in fifth grade. Our focus this year is on ecology, astronomy and Earth science. In ecology, we study how organisms interact with their environment. Earth science focuses on the makeup and workings of Earth. In our astronomy unit, we look at Earth's place in the universe.

Absences- If your child is going to be absent for a prolonged period of time (more than one day), please notify the main office and your child's teacher(s) directly. This applies to illness, family vacations, or personal family matters. The Wells Junior High main office can be reached at 646-5142.

Agendas- Your child's agenda is a valuable tool for organization and home/school communication. Each teacher will write the homework on the board and provide verbal notification at the end of each class period. Your daily signature is required to verify the completion of your child's nightly assignments.

In addition, the front of the agenda contains the Wells Junior High School handbook. This is a complete A-Z guide to all important information regarding our school.

Homework- Generally speaking, homework is given Monday-Thursday nights in the areas of Math and Language Arts. In addition to their written work, your child should be reading at least 20 minutes a night.

Student Led Conferences- Parent-teacher conferences are held twice a year. At spring conferences, the meetings are led by the students who present a select portfolio of their learning.

WJHS Library- WJHS has an amazing library, which is located on the third floor. Students usually visit the library during their Reading or Writing block to borrow and return books.

After School Activities- Students are highly encouraged to join after-school activities that include games, technology, sports, book group, writing club, and service learning. Activities change each trimester. Watch the WJHS billboard for announcements
