Weathering and Soil

With the paper shortage we are in I can no longer offer students the ADAPTED READING packages. These packets use ALOT of paper. However you MAY click on the link below to print them out at home for your child’s individual use.

PARENTS AND STUDENTS: Since we no longer have packets, it is ESSENTIAL that your child is keeping their NOTES safe, reviewing DAILY, and looking in their TEXTBOOK if they need HELP!!
You will need to download the free PDF viewer ADOBE to view and print packet
