Mrs. J's MAC-DADDY
8th Grade Physical Science!!
East Jackson Middle School

Welcome!

This year will be the first year that physical science is taught in 8th grade.  This is because the new Georgia Performance Standards are being implemented beginning this year.  This is an incredible change because Physical Science is TONS of fun and allows for a lot of labs!
 
On this class website, I will keep pictures and updates of our progress throughout the year.  As always, if you should have any questions, feel free to contact me at 706-335-2083.  We do have voice mail, so if you do not reach me, please leave a message and I will return your call soon.  You may also reach me via email.  My email address is:
 
I look forward to an amazing school year!  Don't hesitate to email or call!
