Gr7 Homework & TEST. BOTH groups!!

We have reached a point in the material I feel it's a good time for a test.

I'd like both groups to begin review of all topics studied from the start of the year: 
 - Characteristics of living things,
 - Water cycle
 - Organization of ecosystems( species, population, community and niche ).

The 03's had a supply teacher on Thursday, so I wasn't able to announce a quiz on our most recent topic:  Organization in ecosystems, so I may or may not try to fit it in before the test.

I plan on giving the test late this coming week( Sept 30th to Oct 4th ), before we get too deep into our next topic.

*Whoops!  Looks like I've already decided on a date for the 01 group( see post below ), so we'll set a date for the 03's too - Thursday, Oct 3rd.

Have a good wknd!
