Welcome to the Science site!
 
On this site, you will find different projects that might be completed in Mr. Muth's 7th Grade Science class for the year of 2007-2008.  Some may not be done this year, and others may be added.  You will also find rubrics and the California Science Standards.  If you have any questions or comments, please contact Peter Muth at pmuth@loomis-usd.k12.ca.us.  Thank you.

To the right, you will see the plans for the school year. C.S.S. stands for California Science Standard and the number and letters correspond to which strand is applicable (you may check the Science Standards with the link to the left). You may note that some of the lessons do not have standards listed below. These subjects will be covered in less detail in class. Please note that these are only our "guidlines" for how things go in class.  I will make every attempt to follow this blueprint, but I won't guarantee it!
