S. AHMED (7th GRADE SCIENCE) - Middle School 890

Welcome to Science!

I hope everyone is doing well. We will now transition to remote learning starting March 23rd 2020. I will post assignments on Google Classroom for all my classes, 701,702, 703, 802,804, Food Science, and STEM. I will specify whether I want a docs, slides, or a draw it attached to it. My quizzes will be on Nearpod, and I will provide the codes. If you do not have a computer, you can do your work on a looseleaf, take a picture of your work and email it to sahmed@ms890.org, with the title of the assignment. The Nearpod assignments can be completed on any device. New assignments will be posted every week, and all assignments will be due on Friday of every week. Please email me on sahmed37@schools.nyc.gov, or sahmed@ms890.org. Stay healthy, stay safe. Thank you for your cooperation.
