Welcome to sixth grade science!  
   
     I am very excited about our year.  We will study five units:  Scientific Inquiry, Atmosphere and Weather, Conservation of Energy, Animals, and Plants. My philosophy is that science is fun and can be made simple.  I look forward to sharing the concepts of science through class room instruction, hands-on labs, mind-blowing demonstrations, guest speakers, and humor.  
    This is my ninth year in Greenville County schools, with this being my fifth year teaching 6th grade science here at Bryson.  I grew up in Simpsonville and attended Bryson Middle and Hillcrest High.  I have one daughter, Asheton, who just turned 6 years old.  Despite being a graduate of the USC system, I am an avid Clemson football fan.  Go Tigers!
    I truly look forward to working with you and your child to make this year a success.  I strongly encourage parental involvement in school, and I urge you to contact me at anytime and for any reason.  Together, parents, teachers, and students make an unbeatable team.

Sincerely,
Ms. Skardon
