Students will learn a variety of techniques using a mid-range clay body tinted with Mason Stains, such as: Nerikomi (a Japanese technique of creating patterns with colored clay) Agateware (a blending and swirling technique) Skinner Blends (rolling out colored clay in a fluid gradient). The techniques will be applied to an assortment of vessels and sculptures. Some previous experience with pottery is useful but not required. Bring sketch book and pencil.
The Greenhouse Project! Join us for this year long Engineering course in which students will apply STEM concepts to continue a student led design for a greenhouse classroom for the resource center. They will learn real world skills such as: drafting, website design, prototyping, marketing, design modeling, applied mathematics, and teamwork while they work together to develop a functional greenhouse design that can be built and utilized at the resource center. At the end of the year students will showcase their design as well as their inactive website when they present their work to the center and the gardening teachers, and if accepted, it may be implemented for real!

Join us for this challenge based Engineering course in which students will apply STEM concepts to solve problems they may encounter in the real world! Students will work individually or as teams each unit to create a solution to the unit challenge, with some guidance from the teacher. Examples of challenges that will be implemented in class include: The Bridge Challenge, Designing an earthquake-proof building, The Perched Water-Proof Pot, etc. Concluding the course, students will present their favorite work on the final day of class.

This is a CORE class that meets once a week for the full year. Parents are required to attend the mandatory Core Parent Meeting immediately following Family Orientation on either August 24th at 2pm, August 24th at 6pm, September 7th at 2pm, or September 7th at 6pm.
This course curriculum was developed by the teacher based on student feedback from previous texts - content falls somewhere between Friendly Chemistry and Apologia Chemistry. Fall term will focus on a thorough understanding of atoms, molecules, and the periodic table, while spring term will apply stoichiometry to various chemical principles. This is a full-year course intended to satisfy a student’s high school science credit requirements and must be taken alongside Mr. Ringnalda's chemistry lab (you will automatically be enrolled in both at the time of registration). Teacher will supplement the text content, administer labs, grade tests, and provide an overall course grade based on test scores, homework completion, and in-class participation. Parents will administer tests at home, sign off on all homework assignments, and maintain communication through Slack.
Requirements:
Students must have passed Algebra 1 with a B or better (contact the teacher prior to registration if this is a concern) - many chemistry problems involve solving for an unknown, unit conversions/dimensional analysis, and simplifying exponents. Students must bring the textbook, a calculator WITH DISPLAY (such as: https://www.amazon.com/Texas-Instruments-Engineering-Scientific-Calculator/dp/B004NB[…]4894100&sprefix=graphing%2Bcalculato%2Caps%2C244&sr=8-14&th=1), a pencil, a highlighter, post-its or other sticky bookmarks, and a spiral bound notebook with pocket folder to class. Materials fee includes the textbook provided by the teacher. Parents must sign off on weekly homework assignments and electronically input scores for supplementary problems once per chapter (10 chapters).
