Welcome to MS890. My name is Mr. Golembe, and I will be your 6th, 7th, and 8th Science teacher for classes 601, 701 and 801. In addition, 803 Living Environment Regents. 

I'm very excited for a brand new school year exploring different topics in science. 

Our curriculum we will be using for Science is Amplify. Amplify Science blends hands-on investigations, literacy-rich activities, and interactive digital tools to empower students to think, read, write, and argue like real scientists and engineers.

The curriculum for the Living Environment Regents will use Miller and Levine NYS Living Environment textbook, in addition students will use the workbook Biology: Living Environment by Rick Hallman.

This class page will have daily updates pertaining to classwork/homework for Classes 601, 701, 801 Science, and 803 Living Environment Regents. So please check daily for any questions you may have.

If you have any questions at all pertaining to any situation that arises, please e-mail me at dgolembe@ms890.org
Let's have an awesome year!
