    Science is great! It’s much harder than last year though. Moodle is a good source to use for tests, quizzes, ect. Eighth grade is much like I thought it would be. So far, I can’t wait to see what the rest of the year will be like.

    I like science okay so far. I love using the laptops, and i am happy with Moodle. I like that i can see my grade all the time. I would like to do more labs in the future. I think Mr. wood is wonderful but i am NOT going to buy him Starbucks every day(maybe once).

    Science is really fun!! im just surprised that it went by so fast. i love using the laptops. it is intresting using all the things on moodle. I like science.

  7.    allyse Says:

    um….i really enjoy working on the laptops it is alot more fun than doing things on paper.i like moddle to because you can do the review and even print out notes.what i would change about moodle is probably how the grades are not posted on there because then you have to go to a totally differant website. in the second and third trimester i am hopeing the test will be easyer and that we will get flashcards to study for it.

  8.    Angela Says:

    I like science its fun. I like moodle because I can check my grades. I like using the laptops to make flashcards and other stuff.

  9.    Nicole Partin Says:

    I like eighth grade and science so far, I like using the laptops, we should use them more often. Moddle is a good source and I like that we can take our quizez on it instead of taking a writen test.

  10.    Maddi Mcgrath Says:

    So far, i like science okay. I like moodle and all the online quizzes and stuff. I like using the laptops because it’s much more easier than writing on paper and it’s pretty fun to use. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for the rest of eighth grade and this science class.

  18.    Linda Says:

    science is ok but i like math better.it is fun using labtops and doing labs but i think that even if oue classroom dosnt have all the materials that we may need to do some of the labs then we should try and use what we do have to do more .the test r kinda harder this year but the worksheets r not hard but alright with me.g2g everyone.bye

    always,
    Linda wade

  25.    Brittany Gundlach Says:

    I like science it is really hard though. But ya the laptops are cool i think we should use them everyday. I like moodle i like that u can write to ur friends!! Um …… I like the 8th grade tons !!! One thing i might change about moodle is nothing. Brittany

  26.    cassie Says:

    i think science is okay i really hate the computer projects. I also dont like the fact that almost everything we do in this class is on the computers and if I don’t finish it then I have to take it during my own time. I also dont like moodle because we are all really dependant on it and I dont have access to it at home. What I would want to change is apparent. I think that quizzes should be taken on pieces of paper and that moodle should not be an all the time thing.

  27.    Sean Yuy Says:

    Science is fun we should have more projects like the poppers

  28.    manuel Says:

    science is the best class using moodle is good to study on when we have tests and you should put more practice tests

  29.    Tyler Says:

    I personally didn’t like the first trimester because its like the monday of the year if u know what i mean. do u no what i mean? anyway i liked the laptops but i think u should do more on then than just test and such. well i have no more comments on evrything else. p.s mr.wood you should bring us candy and cake evry day.

  30.    Joe Says:

    So Far I love science

  31.    Dayllyn Kerns Says:

    I think that the labtops are a better and ore fun way of learning than books I like the way we get to take practice tests they are a good way of helping to do good on the real test. I also like the way you let us do fun stuff on the computer like the scavenger hunt and the digitlal lab. Alright thats enough my fingers hurt LATA!!!!!!!!

  32.    Haley Says:

    I like science this year. i love using the laptops. && moddle. i like moodle because you can review for tests && message your friends.I thin k one thing i would change about moodle is that we cn she our grades on it. that ay we dont have to go to teacherweb to do i. We can do everythinng on moodle.

  33.    Tabitha Stewart Says:

    uhh…science has gotten more fun over the past week. I like using the laptops and moodle because we can write people messages, see the notes, and it has a lot of good stuff to study with.

  34.    anthony Says:

    i think its harder than last year but using the computers is great.$

  35.    Evan Lung Says:

    I really like science so far. I think that the laptops are really fun and Ilike moodle and I would do nothing to change it. (I don’t really like starbucks that much.)

  36.    ANGELiCA Says:

    even though science is a hard subject for me, i really like taking the moodle tests and quizes because is doesnt have to consider writing with your hand and making you all tired. I hope we will be doing cool experiments using liquids and stuff next trimester. that would be awesome ! but we should be able to choose our own partners of course. mr.wood is a great teacher and he should give many chances for extra credit !

  37.    Heather Says:

    i like science this year and i love using the labtops. moodle is cool causee we can message to friends and take practice test which is really cool but i dont like that we cant see our grades there

  38.    michael youngblood Says:

    I think science is okay so far. I like the laptops but, sometimes our laptop acts up and doesn’t work well. Yes, im happy with moodle it’s fun to use and you can get all your information off of it easily. No, i wouldn’t change anything on moodle it’s already a great website. Yeah I like everything we are doing in class it’s fun and i hope to see more about space and stuff im interested in that kind of stuff.

  39.    John Says:

    Science is okay so far we do a lot of work i hope we get to do more lab stuff next trimester

  40.    Mike Roach Says:

    Yo I think that science couldn’t get any better! I would change the groups because unless katie is online and sent me a message I can’t talk to her it just saise your not in this group but she can send me messages! oh wethis class is still my fav. period this year! GG:)

  41.    Richard Salazar Says:

    I tkink it was ok 1 tri. it was cool, but I think we need to do more stuff on the computers , but other then that it was cool.

  42.    Cody Says:

    I really like this class because we use the labtops a lot. What I don’t like is when you study and still do okay on a test. Even though I have a good grade, I hope we use or have our own blogs o Moodle. I like the homework too, we get little of it 2* it’s great.

  43.    Alan Says:

    I think that moodle real helps, but we should get to do more fun stuff

  44.    Sammie Says:

    I like this class the most cause we get to use the laptops and the trust us with the them!!!! Unlike the other teachers at this school. well buy!!!!

  45.    SaRaH Says:

  46.    Andrew Taylor Says:

  52.    JACOB Says:

  53.    Kaity Says:

    i love Sciences soo far. i’m hoping in the future, mr. wood would let us give presantaions with Power Point and Insperation more. but so far mr.wood is one off my favorite teachers……….not to be a suck-up . but becaues hes heca nice, even when he get angry he seems nice. He should also give out candy and cookies to the people who do a good job. but science is awsome :]

  54.    Greg Says:

    I think this class is better than my other science class

  55.    Semaj Clement Says:

    yeah the first trimester is all right, but how can u really tell when u still have the whole year ahead. science is pretty cool and the laptops are fun. moodle is cool but its no myspace.

  56.    summer Locke Says:

    I like this class!!!!!I think that there should be more creative power points to make it way more fun that we can show the class it would make it more fun.

  57.    Raymond Says:

    I like Moodle. I am glad I don’t have to remember everything from school, I can just look it up when I get home :)

    Science is great!!! i love moodle and everything that we do in class. it is a whole lot better thatn 7th grade…that is for sure! :) i just want to do more inspiration projects in class and be able to present them infront of the class for some extra-credit!! other than that i love sciene this year!!

  62.    Elizabeth Says:

  63.    Summer Locke Says:

    kool laid would be a solution,paint would be a suspension,and jello would be a colloid.

  64.    Reena Van Slyke Says:

    I think Science is awesome soo far. We always go on the laptops and do really fun activities while learning. Mr. Wood should win best teacher of the year.

  65.    savannah Says:

    i think that it has been a very bad tri.1 for me because i have not done very good. i think thatti can do better and turn in my homework. then i think i will have good grades. the only thing i do good is my work that i did do. i think if i put effort into it i can do WAY BETTER
