Syllabus
Topics Covered:
Notes:
Students are expected to keep a dedicated Science Notebook. All class
materials and notes will be kept in this notebook, and students will be expected
to organize it with a table of contents. The Teacher will do at least one random
notebook check per quarter, and will collect notebooks for a formal grade at
the end of each quarter.
Homework:
Homework assignments are given to reinforce the lessons that are taught in
class. These can vary from reading assignments, reflections, or extra practice.
Homework will not be assigned every night. Students who miss class will be
expected to make up assignments within one week of the assignment date.
Late work will not be accepted. Students who routinely neglect to turn in
homework assignments may be asked to stay after class.
Grading Policy:
I use the point system of grading. Every assignment I give is worth a certain point
value. Your final grade in the class is determined by dividing the sum of your
earned points by the sum of the possible points on all of the assignments. A
breakdown of the typical point values of assignments is listed below:
Extra Help:
If you are ever struggling with a concept we are covering in class please see me
for extra help. I am available most days after school and/or during lunch/recess
for extra assistance.
