I am Cody Hemmerling, your child's science 9 teacher at LCI this semester. I am sending you
this email to introduce myself, let you know about the course, and touch on some other
important information, including important dates coming up.
I have attached the science 9 course outline to this email. On the course outline you can find
information on what your child will be learning, and how they will be assessed in this course (all
students received a paper copy of this as well). Science 9 moves fast; we are already well
underway the space exploration unit, with our first quiz occurring next week.
Throughout the semester I will be sending out weekly emails giving you a look at the week
