LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF !   I AM THE NEWSLETTER FOR THE NATIONAL MIDDLE LEVEL SCIENCE TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION.  MEMBERSHIP IN THIS ORGANIZATION WILL PUT YOU ON THE MAILING LIST TO RECEIVE THE NEWSLETTER, PUBLISHED FOUR TIMES A YEAR.

Level Line contains short articles written by middle school science teachers who want to share their thoughts and ideas with the membership.  Each issue has ideas for physical, earth, and life science.  One can also read about middle school science workshops, inexpensive materials, books, meetings, and national activities.  Feel a part of the growing number of middle level science teachers who are interested in students in grades five through nine.

You are welcome to submit articles for publication in Level Line at any time.  We really need more input from the members so that this publication can get better and better.  Activities, demonstrations or laboratories that work for you will be much appreciated by other middle level teachers.  The deadlines for writers are:  August 1, October 1, January 1, and April 1. Send your copy to:

Keep in mind as you formulate your submission that the National Middle Science Teachers' Association recognizes the importance of safety in the classroom and strongly promotes the use of NSTA and ACS guidelines.  The ultimate responsibility to follow the established guidelines rests with you, the classroom teacher.
